Connectors

The following is not supported in Tenable FedRAMP Moderate environments. For more information, see the Tenable FedRAMP Product Offering.

Tenable One Vulnerability Management uses connectors, including third-party data connectors, to import assets from other platforms. Tenable One Vulnerability Management supports connectors for Tenable One Vulnerability Management and Tenable Container Security.

Tenable One Vulnerability Management Connectors

Vulnerability Management includes connectors for AWS, GCP, and Microsoft Azure. To use Tenable One Vulnerability Management connectors to scan your assets, you must first configure the platform the connector integrates with, then create the connector, as described in the appropriate section for your platform:

After you configure platforms and create connectors, you can manage connectors from the Settings page in Tenable One Vulnerability Management.

Note: When using cloud connectors. Tenable recommends allowlisting the IP addresses for the region in which the Tenable One Vulnerability Management site resides.

The licensing implications are as follows:

  • Assets discovered through the connectors do not count against the license until and unless the asset is scanned for vulnerabilities. Discovery through the connector is free.
  • Assets discovered through the connectors that did become licensed fall off the license the day after the asset was terminated. This event can be observed via the connector.
  • When an asset is terminated, Tenable One Vulnerability Management stops matching scan results to the asset. The asset is also deleted from the default view of the assets table.

  • When an asset is deleted, Tenable One Vulnerability Management purges the asset and any associated findings in Explore, and releases the asset’s license. For more information, see Delete Assets.
