Tenable Vulnerability Management vs. Tenable Security Center

Tenable Vulnerability Management provides a risk-based approach to identifying, prioritizing, and remediating vulnerabilities across your entire attack surface. Powered by Nessus technology and AI-driven analytics, it goes beyond CVSS scores to assess exploitability, asset criticality, and business impact—so you can focus on what matters most. With continuous visibility, automated scanning, and real-time risk insights, security teams can quickly expose and close critical vulnerabilities before they’re exploited.

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
