Tenable has launched Tenable One AI Exposure, a new release of its Tenable One Exposure Management platform that adds AI discovery, protection, and usage governance across enterprise environments.
The company says the product identifies where AI is deployed and used across SaaS platforms, cloud services, APIs, and agents. Tenable said it can also connect AI-related findings with broader cyber risk signals within the same platform.
Exposure to AI
Tenable described what it calls the “AI Exposure Gap.” The company said this is due to how AI tools and services are deployed across applications, infrastructure, identity, agents and data. Tenable said many security teams don’t know where AI will be used, what data and processes it touches, who owns it, who has access to it, and how users will interact with it.
Tenable positioned this release as an extension of its approach to managing exposure to AI-related risks. The company said it is treating the AI exposure as part of a broader picture of attack surfaces and risks that organizations already track for cybersecurity.
Discovery and context
According to Tenable, Tenable One AI Exposure continuously discovers AI usage across internal and external environments, including on-premises and in the cloud. This includes authorized deployments and “shadow AI.” The company says its findings span applications, workloads, APIs, and agents.
Tenable also outlined a second area of the release that focuses on exposure context. The platform said it links the use of AI with infrastructure, identity and data. Tenable said this approach highlights how risks can arise between interconnected systems. The company says this reduces noise and reveals potential AI attack vectors.
The third area focuses on restoration and governance. Tenable said customers can fix misconfigurations and close published services. It also said the product supports the enforcement of acceptable use policies for AI, limits data exposure, and generates audit evidence related to governance and compliance activities.
Eric Doerr, chief product officer at Tenable, said: “Tenable One brings AI exposure out of silos and into a unified operating model for cyber risk so it can be seen, understood, and mitigated.” “By connecting the dots between AI risks and larger business risks, Tenable provides security leaders with the visibility and context they need for informed proactive defense.”
Analyst references
Tenable also pointed to a Gartner study that addressed the company’s position on AI-powered exposure assessment. The company cited a Gartner report that said, “Tenable has achieved front-runner status in EAP by leveraging long-standing advantages in vulnerability assessment, as well as combining its strong asset and attack surface detection capabilities, third-party telemetry ingestion and support for AI.”
Additionally, Tenable said it was named a Leader in Gartner’s first Magic Quadrant for Exposure Assessment Platforms. Gartner named Tenable best in execution ability and farthest to the right in completeness of vision.
According to Tenable, Tenable One AI Exposure provides unified AI visibility, contextual exposure insights, and exposure reduction steps across environments where organizations run AI services and connect them to data and identity systems.
The company said this release will be generally available as part of Tenable One.
