Explore

The Explore section in Tenable One Vulnerability Management is the central location for all your scan data. In Explore, you view and manage:

• Assets, resources of value on your network that require protection from threats, and

• Findings, single instances of vulnerabilities identified on those assets.

• Host Audits, compliance audit results from credentialed scans that assess configuration, hardening, and security controls on your assets.

• Software, an inventory of software discovered across your assets from credentialed scans.

As Tenable sensors scan your environment or you import resources from other Tenable products, the system matches incoming data to existing resources or creates new resources. This data is presented on the Assets, Findings, Host Audits, and Software pages. There, using an intuitive query builder, you build lists of assets, findings, host audit results, or software items to take action on. For example, you might recast the severity of some findings to hide them from reports. Or, you might export lists of assets to a file.

Tenable One Vulnerability Management also discovers and tracks software installed on your assets. This inventory is presented on the Software page.

This guide explains how to use Explore and is arranged by the work you will do. Start with the following topics.

In This Topic	Learn How To...
Assets
Use the Assets Page	Perform common asset actions such as exporting lists, adding assets to scans, or viewing key details.
Asset Types	Understand asset types, including both licensed assets and assets which have not yet been scanned for vulnerabilities.
Asset Filters	Build lists of assets with filters ranging from when assets were first scanned to which operating system they run.
Findings
Use the Findings Page	Perform common findings actions such as creating Recast and Change Result rules or generating reports.
Findings Types	Understand finding types in Explore > Findings, which include Vulnerabilities and Web Applications. Host Audits are now available on a dedicated tab.
Findings Filters	Build lists of findings with filters including vulnerability severity and Common Platform Enumeration (CPE) ID.
Findings Columns	Understand the data columns available on the Findings page.
Host Audits
Use the Host Audits Page	View host audit findings, filter by result type, and take action on compliance audit data.
Host Audit Filters	Build lists of host audit findings with filters including audit file, benchmark, and result.
Host Audit Columns	Understand the data columns available on the Host Audits page.
Software
Use the Software Page	Identify software by vendor and product type, and investigate software exposure across your environment.
Software Filters	Build lists of software with filters including vendor, product, version, and product type.
Software Columns	Understand the data columns available on the Software page.
