Today, modern enterprises face a plethora of technical, political, and business hurdles which make accurate security and compliance monitoring difficult and costly. Tenable has pioneered and continues to innovate a unique Unified Security Monitoring approach that is revolutionizing the way enterprises are monitoring (i.e. gathering, evaluating, communicating, and reporting) security and compliance information. Tenable Network Security is the pioneer and leader of Unified Security Monitoring.

Tenable's award-winning products are agentless solutions and architected for the continuous monitoring of vulnerabilities, configurations, data leakage, log analysis and compromise detection and are used by thousands of organizations both large and small around the world.

Although Tenable is known primarily for its Nessus vulnerability scanner product, Tenable's Unified Security Monitoring solution consists of four fully integrated software applications: Tenable's Security Center, Nessus, the Passive Vulnerability Scanner, and the Log Correlation Engine.

An important strength of Tenable is the depth of security talent under one roof. Tenable's technical leaders have all created market leading and award winning products individually (Nessus, Dragon IDS, Guantlet Firewall, TIS firewall tool kit) prior to joining forces at Tenable. Tenable's Unified Security Monitoring approach is their combined vision on how to monitor and secure enterprise networks.

Tenable was founded in September of 2002 and is privately held. Tenable's corporate offices are located in Columbia, Maryland.
