TLDR:
– Tenable has launched Tenable One for OT/IoT, an exposure management platform providing visibility across OT and IT assets.
– The platform offers a unique feature allowing users to compare their global exposure to other companies in their industries.
Tenable has introduced a new exposure management platform called Tenable One for OT/IoT, aiming to provide security leaders with comprehensive visibility across both Operational Technology (OT) and Information Technology (IT) assets. This platform allows organizations to understand their exposure across their entire attack surface, including OT and IoT sectors, enabling them to prioritize security risks regardless of where they exist. By merging vulnerability coverage across various assets, such as IT, cloud resources, web apps, identity systems, OT, and IoT assets, Tenable One offers a holistic approach to managing cyber risks.
One of the unique features of Tenable One for OT/IoT is the ability for users to compare their global exposure, including OT assets, to other companies within their respective industries. This comparative insight can help organizations make informed decisions and take necessary actions to minimize security risks. The platform also addresses the increasing risk posed to OT systems by nation-state cyber-attacks, as highlighted during a recent U.S. Congressional hearing where critical U.S. services were reported to be actively targeted by Chinese hacking campaigns.
Amir Hirsh, SVP and general manager of OT Security at Tenable, emphasized the importance of addressing cybersecurity in OT environments and highlighted the need for a different approach compared to traditional IT security measures. The Tenable One platform aims to bridge the gap between IT and OT/IoT environments, enabling organizations to enhance their cybersecurity posture without compromising productivity.
In addition to the Tenable One platform, the licensing includes Tenable Security Center and Tenable OT Security. Tenable is also planning a webinar titled ‘The Invisible Bridge: How to Effectively Discover, Measure, and Minimize the Risk Posed by Your Interconnected IT/OT/IoT Environments’ to further educate organizations on cybersecurity best practices. Overall, the launch of Tenable One for OT/IoT showcases the company’s commitment to providing robust security solutions for organizations seeking to protect their critical assets from cyber threats.
