Upgrade Notes
-
Tenable Vulnerability Management FedRAMP environments support Tenable Nessus scanners version 8.x and 10.4.0 and later.
- (Automatic upgrades only) If you upgrade Tenable Nessus to a version later than 10.5.0, the Tenable Nessus will first upgrade to 10.5.0 before it upgrades to the desired version.
- You can upgrade to the latest version of Tenable Nessus from any previously supported version.
- If your upgrade path skips versions of Tenable Nessus, Tenable recommends reviewing the release notes for all skipped versions to learn about new features and bug fixes.
- If you want your scanners to update to the newest version before the GA date automatically, set your Tenable Nessus Update Plan to Opt in to Early Access releases.
- If you want to update your scanners to the latest version before the GA date manually, disable automatic updates so the scanner does not automatically downgrade to the previous version.
-
