More XM Cyber Pros →

Cons
"Tenable has some problems with agents going offline during scanning and lag between agents and the security center.""The solution should include compliance-based scanning.""Tenable's reporting engine needs improvement. It needs to be more efficient and add more features.""Tenable SC could improve by making the creation of the initial reports easier that correspond to our network.""I will say it's a lot slower compared to an MS scan. It takes so much longer, so the performance could definitely be worked on.""I think the vendor training provided for Tenable.sc could be a lower price. It's quite expensive for the training.""There is not much room for improvement. However, there should be a guide that describes the step-by-step procedures for doing tasks. Otherwise, training is required from a senior guy to a junior guy.""The tool's initial configuration is not so easy."
