Tenable Vulnerability Management Tables
In Tenable Vulnerability Management, tables serve as your primary workspace for analyzing and acting on exposure, security, reporting data and more. Depending on your location in the application, you will encounter two types of table experiences:
Workbench Tables — Standardized, consistent views found in core areas like Scans, Tags, and Remediation. These use a consistent UI that provide the foundation for data management. For more information see Workbench Tables.
Query Builder-powered Tables — Dynamic analytical views found in areas like Explore or the Recast/Accept Risk workflows. These allow for custom logic and advanced data mining. For more information see Query Builders.
