Transition to the New Interface
Welcome to the new interface!
Tenable designed this new interface to improve the efficiency and ease of your workflow as you configure scans and analyze scan results.
The system requirements are the same for both classic and new interfaces.
Feature Parity
The table below lists which tasks are supported in each interface.
