Source types and alert actions for the Tenable Add-on for Splunk

 

This page provides an overview of the source types and alert actions available within the Tenable Add-on for Splunk. The add-on allows you to ingest vulnerability, asset, plugin, compliance, and audit log data from Tenable.sc, Tenable.io, and Tenable OT Security into the Splunk platform.

By centralizing this data, you can gain comprehensive visibility into your security posture, identify vulnerabilities, and monitor compliance. Additionally, the add-on provides several adaptive response actions that enable you to take immediate action, such as initiating scans or retrieving vulnerability summaries directly from the Splunk platform. This integration streamlines vulnerability management workflows and enhances your ability to respond to threats effectively.
