Amazon Inspector vs. Tenable Security Center

Amazon Inspector is an automated vulnerability management service that continuously scans AWS workloads—including Amazon EC2 instances, container images in Amazon ECR, AWS Lambda functions, and code repositories—for software vulnerabilities and unintended network exposure. By integrating seamlessly with AWS environments, it provides real-time detection and prioritization of security issues, enabling organizations to enhance their security posture efficiently.

Tenable Security Center (formerly Tenable.sc) is the industry's most comprehensive risk-based vulnerability management (RBVM) solution, enabling you to: • See all your vulnerabilities and continuously assess all assets the moment they join the network -- including transient devices that aren’t regularly connected • Predict what matters by understanding vulnerabilities in the context of business risk, as well as the criticality of affected assets • Act on each high priority vulnerability to effectively manage risk, and measure KPIs to effectively communicate
