Tenable One Identity Exposure FAQs

Get the facts on securing identities across your attack surface. Since every breach is an identity breach, use Tenable One to unify inventory, map attack paths, and secure your environment against active threats.

What are Tenable One Identity Exposure’s main capabilities?: Tenable One Identity Exposure, an identity security solution, helps you unify human and machine identities into a single consolidated view, map risky relationships to visualize how attackers move laterally, and secure your infrastructure by detecting and neutralizing threats like Kerberoasting and DCSync in real time.

What is identity security posture management (ISPM)?: ISPM is a proactive pillar of security that continuously assesses, monitors, and mitigates risks such as misconfigurations, excessive permissions, and risky trust relationships. It goes beyond traditional identity and access management (IAM) by identifying the attack paths adversaries exploit to succeed.

Which attacks does Tenable One Identity Exposure detect in real time?: Tenable One has real-time detection for techniques threat actors use to gain elevated privileges and enable lateral movement, including DCShadow, Brute Force, Password Spraying, DCSync, and Golden Ticket attacks.

Is Tenable One a point-in-time security audit tool for hybrid environments?: No. Unlike point-in-time tools, Tenable One Identity Exposure provides continuous, real-time monitoring of Active Directory and Entra ID to catch identity drift and emerging threats as they happen.

Does Tenable One Identity Exposure require agents or high-privileged credentials to operate?: No. The identity security solution is completely agentless and does not need privileged credentials, ensuring zero impact on production while delivering instant visibility without increasing your attack surface.

What is the Identity Asset Exposure Score (AES)?: The AES is an AI-driven scoring system that evaluates and ranks every asset across the Tenable exposure management platform on a scale of 0 to 1000. By applying this uniform metric to both human and machine identities, Tenable normalizes risk data, making it easier to compare identity-related exposures to other asset classes like cloud or IT. It factors in inherent vulnerabilities, such as weak credentials, alongside inherited risks from associated assets to help you prioritize the most critical pathways for immediate action.

How does Tenable One Identity Exposure help with compliance?: Tenable One helps organizations align with frameworks like NIST, CIS, and NIS2 by providing pre-built dashboards that track cyber risk reduction over time and demonstrate robust identity governance to auditors.

How does identity security integrate with the Tenable One platform?: Tenable One Identity Exposure feeds into the Tenable One single inventory, where it normalizes and stores identity risk in the Tenable data lake alongside vulnerability and cloud insights. Tenable One uses these integrated exposure signals to power advanced attack path analysis, visualizing how attackers could pivot from a simple misconfiguration to your most critical assets.

Does Tenable One Identity Exposure see nonhuman identities (NHI)?: Yes. It tracks machine identities, including service accounts, API keys, tokens, system accounts, and certificates.

What are IoAs and IoEs, and why are they critical to Tenable One Identity Exposure?

Indicators of exposure (IoE) and indicators of attack (IoA) represent the two primary pillars of a proactive identity security strategy:

IoEs provide proactive insight by continuously identifying security weaknesses and misconfigurations, such as dangerous Kerberos delegation or excessive privileges, within your Active Directory and Entra ID before attackers can exploit them.
IoAs deliver real-time detection of active threats and suspicious behaviors, catching sophisticated techniques like DCSync, Kerberoasting, and Golden Ticket attacks as they occur.
