Tenable.io Integration
Capture exportable evidence from Tenable.io on a schedule you control. Evidence includes source details and timestamps so reviewers can verify without meetings.
Common coverage includes Vulnerability scanning.
No obligation. We’ll start with the export format.

Setup
01
Connect Tenable.io
Sign-in method: API key. Start with least-privilege access where supported.
02
Confirm Evidence Sources and Cadence
Confirm evidence sources and set cadence (every 6 hours).
03
Validate Capture (Read-Only Where Possible)
Validate evidence capture in read-only mode (where possible) before expanding workflows.
04
Map Evidence to Controls
Map captured artifacts to controls (1 mapped control listed).
05
Export an Evidence Bundle
Export an evidence bundle (ZIP) you can attach to reviewer-ready exports.
What This Integration Captures
What Aurora monitors
1 continuous check
Vulnerability scans run within last 7 days
Evidence Aurora can collect
2 evidence types
Asset • Findings
How it stays current
Incremental updates every 6 hours. Full refresh daily.
Checks update as new data is synced.
Checks
Automated checks Aurora can run
Checks map directly to common buyer requirements. Reviewers see the result as exportable evidence, not a screenshot.
Vulnerability scans run within last 7 days
Evidence
Evidence types collected
These evidence objects can be mapped to controls and exported as an evidence bundle or audit workbook snapshot.
Produces
- Evidence objects with source details
- Freshness and cadence status
- Evidence bundle exports (plan-based)
Security Note
Read-only API, scoped credentials, and an audit trail (where supported by the connector and your environment).
Cadence Controls
Incremental updates every 6 hours. Full refresh daily.
Why It Matters for Reviewers
- Reduces “show me” follow-ups by attaching system exports to answers.
- Keeps timestamps explicit for audit windows.
- Makes sampling easier through evidence bundles.

Does this require admin access?
It depends on the evidence you choose to capture. We’ll confirm required permissions during setup.
Can we control cadence?
Can we control cadence?
Yes. In eligible plans, cadence is configurable.
Can we export evidence for reviewers?
Can we export evidence for reviewers?
Yes. Captured artifacts can be included in evidence bundles and reviewer-ready exports.
Want to Confirm Evidence Coverage for Tenable.io?
Bring one reviewer request. We’ll map which artifacts matter and what you can export today.
No obligation. We respond within one business day. We will show a sample reviewer-ready export.
