Tenable Network Security Automates and Simplifies NIST Cybersecurity Framework Adoption for Commercial and Government Organizations

New Cybersecurity Framework solution introduces the industry’s only dashboards that measure NIST Cybersecurity Framework conformance across complex IT environments at RSA Conference 2016

COLUMBIA, Md.--()--Tenable Network Security, Inc., a global leader transforming security technology for the business needs of tomorrow, released a new solution at RSA Conference 2016 that makes it easier for companies and government organizations to improve security posture through conforming to the widely respected U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Framework for Improving Critical Infrastructure Cybersecurity (Cybersecurity Framework).

“By 2020 more than 50 percent of private and public enterprises in the U.S. will use the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, up from 30 percent in 2015,” noted Gartner in the January 2016 report Best Practices in Implementing the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, by Paul E. Proctor, Katell Thielemann, Earl Perkins, and Khushbu Pratap. Tenable’s new Cybersecurity Framework solution automates operation and assessment of more than 90 percent of the CSF technical controls and speeds adoption by providing unified dashboards with actionable data that enable customers to track conformance and prioritize security responses.

“The NIST Cybersecurity Framework transcends its original purpose of improving critical infrastructure cybersecurity, and is being recognized as sound guidance for all types of organizations,” said Ron Gula, CEO, Tenable Network Security. “Tenable’s new Cybersecurity Framework solution makes it easy to implement government-grade frameworks in a corporate environment. Customers can put NIST recommendations into practice through our automated reports and dashboards, measuring conformance in real time so they know immediately what actions they need to take to be secure.”

The industry's only NIST Cybersecurity Framework dashboards in Tenable’s award-winning SecurityCenter Continuous View™ (SecurityCenter CV™) deliver a unified view of what’s happening in an organization’s IT landscape — even across mobile, virtualized and cloud environments — enabling customers to take decisive action to ensure their security controls are operating effectively. Eight customizable NIST Assurance Report Cards (ARCs) and more than 20 Cybersecurity Framework dashboards give CISOs and security practitioners the tools they need to know their security status and build a roadmap to successfully meet CSF objectives.
