The solution is primarily used for vulnerability scanning.

We are using it for our internal network and scanning for access in our internal network.

For example, sometimes, there are some vulnerabilities in the system that are happening and are unexpected. We use this for finding these vulnerable cases in that system, like blocks4j, and then deal with them. If there's a patch required, we handle advice on patching the system to remove the vulnerability. I put in patch requests and handle reports.

Our primary use case for the solution is automated scanning. It doesn't require scripting knowledge or any of those suites or other tools. So it is fully automated, and we provide the credentials and URL. The tool does all scanning and will show the result per the requirement.

MC
Security Specialist at a security firm with 51-200 employees

I work for a security company, and I implement Tenable for our customers. I just implement this technology. I'm not working with the users. 

Our main use case is for implementing and starting scans for the whole company or a specific host. It is used for creating reports or dashboards for the vulnerabilities of the whole company. As a product for web application scanning, the results are uploaded to the cloud, and the management is on the cloud, but we can implement an on-premises scanner, or we can scan the on-premises web applications of our customers.
