"Another area for improvement is logging. When troubleshooting, the logs sometimes take a while to update. We've had people report that some things aren't logged if they're successful. It's a bit hit-and-miss. For example, sometimes people access one of our services, and it's successful, but we don't see that in the logs."
"The false positives are annoying."

"Tenable.io Web Application Scanning conducts a general scan, which wastes time. The scan needs to be specific."
