Recognize the impact of proactive compliance and risk reduction features
What is our primary use case?
My main use case for Tenable Cloud Security is managing our security compliance and security posture.
I use Tenable Cloud Security for managing compliance and security posture, and we rely on the compliance reports and findings of our cloud configuration.
I don't have anything else to add about my use case or how I use Tenable Cloud Security day-to-day.
What is most valuable?
The best features Tenable Cloud Security offers in my experience are automatic scanning, frequent scanning, and automatic finding, which I find valuable.
Tenable Cloud Security has positively impacted my organization with risk reduction and compliance.
We weren't previously measuring compliance, so that's completely new to our organization regarding risk reduction and compliance improvements.
What needs improvement?
I think Tenable Cloud Security could be improved with more clear licensing.
What I would like to see improved with licensing is how they're used in the product.
The calculations of what is considered a license between virtual machines, containers, Kubernetes clusters, and similar components should be made more clear.
I will add more about the needed improvements.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Tenable Cloud Security for about a year and a half.

In my experience, Tenable Cloud Security is not very stable. There are no downtime, no outages, and a few support tickets, but nothing out of the ordinary.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We don't have metrics for a return on investment from using Tenable Cloud Security because this was a new product, a new deployment.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
I wasn't involved with the pricing, setup cost and licensing for Tenable Cloud Security.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
I wasn't involved in evaluating other options before choosing Tenable Cloud Security.
What other advice do I have?
My advice to others looking into using Tenable Cloud Security is to go in with expectations around how to manage findings and criticalities and how to manage exceptions. Have an exception process at the ready.
I don't have any additional thoughts about Tenable Cloud Security before we wrap up.
On a scale of one to ten, I rate Tenable Cloud Security an eight.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?
Offers reliable security support and encourages a safe migration to cloud environments while there is room for better reseller collaboration
What is our primary use case?
They are looking to promote a deeper security strategy with Tenable Cloud Security . Companies are migrating from on-premise to clouds and they must ensure their applications in the cloud will be more safe and secure.
Healthcare is most likely the kind of clients we see migrating to Tenable Cloud Security .
What is most valuable?
From what I know, though I'm not an expert technically speaking, perhaps the best functionalities are related to promoting a deeper analysis of the environment where applications are running in terms of creating a double armor of security to block threats that may come in the cloud with Tenable Cloud Security.
Companies are looking for cloud security, specifically Tenable Cloud Security, because they know it's a reliable company with long-term presence in the market, and they trust Tenable for their product strategy and support. This is the main reason.
What needs improvement?
I really don't know to tell the truth because we sell many solutions and don't sell exclusively Tenable, so I'm not in a condition to give a precise definition of what could be improved. My perception is this: when customer A needs Tenable Cloud Security, we introduce and demonstrate it. They POC, they appreciate it. The solution serves in such use cases ABC.
I am very pragmatic and straightforward - as long as they use or want the solution, I am interested. If they don't, my question is what are the main objections? They may discuss pricing, or they may say they thought the solution had certain technical capabilities that they could not find.

For how long have I used the solution?
It's just recently that these customers asked us to introduce Cloud Security, so I'm still in the process of getting to know this solution in more detail.
How was the initial setup?
Depending on the size of the project, it takes perhaps 15 days or a week or something similar.
What about the implementation team?
We have a technical person that helps with the setup or the implementation, and either the distributor or the vendor always assists us.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
We resell Tenable and other cybersecurity companies in Brazil.
What other advice do I have?
Companies are migrating from on-premise to clouds and they must ensure their applications in the cloud will be more safe and secure.
Customers will be more secure in terms of knowing that their applications are running in a safe environment protected by Tenable Cloud Security, so they can promote and extend the migration process to either GCP, AWS , or Azure .
The analytical and reporting capabilities are pretty straightforward and show every transaction and major attempt to attack the application in the cloud. These analytical tools are very complete.
This solution can help organizations adhere to and comply with regulatory requirements such as HIPAA.
On a scale of 1-10, I rate this solution an 8.
