Create an Exclusion

Required Tenable Vulnerability Management User Role: Scan Manager or Administrator

Note: Exclusions do not apply to Agent scans.

Important: Tenable does not recommend applying exclusions to PAM integration servers. This prohibits Tenable Vulnerability Management from accessing those credentials and, as a result, Tenable Vulnerability Management cannot run scans using them.

To create an exclusion:

  1. In the left navigation, click Settings.

    The Settings page appears.

  2. Click the Exclusions tile.

    The Exclusions page appears.

  3. In the upper-right corner of the page, click the Create Create Exclusion button.

    The Create an Exclusion page appears.

  4. Set the exclusion settings.

  5. Click Save.

    Tenable Vulnerability Management saves the exclusion and applies the exclusion to the selected scan targets.
