Tenable\u00ae, Inc.<\/a>, the Cyber Exposure company, today announced a first-of-its kind integration with Tenable.ot\u2122 3.7 and Nessus\u00ae Professional to help organizations secure both IT and operational technology (OT) devices in converged environments. For the first time, customers can use a single solution \u2014\u00a0 Tenable.ot \u2014\u00a0 for unmatched visibility and control to secure IT assets alongside\u00a0 OT systems and reduce their cyber risk in converged, modern environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With digital transformation, cyberattacks are increasingly creeping laterally between IT and OT. The Tenable.ot 3.7 release comes on the heels of the National Security Agency (NSA) and Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Agency\u2019s (CISA) <\/a>alert AA20-205A about the targeting of critical infrastructure by exploiting internet-accessible OT assets. This expanding attack surface and new attack vectors brought by convergence, whether planned or unplanned, require a holistic OT security solution that can precisely identify, assess and protect against both IT- and OT-specific threats within an OT environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cModern OT environments increasingly interconnect with IT as organizations seek to optimize costs and accelerate innovation. The result is a complex, sensitive and vastly expanded attack surface where you cannot manage OT cyber risk discreetly,\u201d said Renaud Deraison, chief technology officer and co-founder, Tenable. \u201cTenable.ot 3.7 is a game changer that gives organizations the comprehensive visibility, control and precision to manage, measure and reduce the cyber risk of their IT assets alongside their OT systems.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tenable.ot 3.7 allows critical infrastructure, manufacturing and industrial organizations to benefit from the efficiencies and cost savings of interconnecting their IT and OT environments without introducing unnecessary and unacceptable risk.
