Integrate Prisma Cloud with Tenable

Learn how to integrate Prisma® Cloud with Tenable.

Prisma® Cloud ingests vulnerability data from Tenable to provide you with additional context about risks in the cloud. With this integration, you can identify suspicious traffic to sensitive workloads such as databases with known vulnerabilities.

AWS, Azure, and GCP clouds support the Prisma Cloud integration with Tenable.

  1. Tenable.io provides API access to assets and their vulnerability information. Configure the Tenable account to use the Tenable AWS, Azure, and GCP connectors. You cannot identify the cloud resource without these connectors.

    The Tenable API requires an access key and a secret key to be added to the request header. Generate an access key and secret key for each user on the Tenable.io app. (See Tenable documentation for information.) Also, ensure that the Tenable role you are using to enable this integration has administrator permissions that include vulns-request-export and assets-request-export API access.

  2. Set up Tenable integration on Prisma Cloud.

    1. Login to Prisma Cloud.

    2. Select Settings > Integrations & Notifications > Integrations.

    3. Select Add Integration > Tenable from the list.

    4. Enter an Integration Name and an optional Description.

    5. Enter the Access Key and the Secret Key that are generated in Tenable.io.

      See Tenable documentation for information.

    1. Navigate to Investigate > Search page.

    2. Config Query

      config from cloud.resource where finding.type = 'Host Vulnerability' AND finding.source = 'Tenable' AND finding.severity = 'high'
