Tenable | March 13, 2023
Tenable®, the Exposure Management company, announced unveiling new features within Tenable OT Security, delivering greater protection for operational technology (OT), industrial control systems and critical infrastructure, regardless of deployment size or environment configuration.
The new feature keeps the CISO's organization front and center, making it easier to protect and maintain governance of the whole attack surface using the same tools and processes throughout their infrastructure, whether IT, OT, IoT, the cloud, or other platforms.
Tenable is ideally positioned to assist its customers in meeting their security needs by offering an all-encompassing solution for securing mixed environments. This latest update enhances Tenable OT Security's vulnerability detection capabilities with an improvement to the OT active scanner and a tighter integration with Tenable's Nessus, the market-leading vulnerability scanning solution. Tenable OT Security now provides companies with unparalleled scanning capabilities by leveraging the technology relied upon by over 40,000 security teams worldwide.
Key new capabilities include:
Increased Asset Discovery and Visibility
Advanced Vulnerability and Threat Detection
Enhanced Dashboards and Reporting
Amir Hirsh, General Manager of OT Security, Tenable, said, "We consistently hear from CISOs that they have been tasked with security for mixed environments that include both OT and IT technologies, but they don't have the requisite visibility to secure either well. The new capabilities added to Tenable OT Security provide our customers with full visibility, security and control of all their environments and assets, in one consolidated view." He added, "Now, our customers can leverage the full strength of Tenable OT active scanning, tightly integrated with embedded Nessus scans for IT assets, to create a clear view of all assets, their vulnerabilities, risk score, attack path analysis and more."

BigID, the leading platform for data security, compliance, privacy, and governance, today announced the launch of BigAI, its newest AI engine to accelerate data security, governance, and risk management initiatives.
In today's ever-evolving tech landscape, artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a critical element in organizations' operations. BigAI helps bridge the gap between data insights and action by providing accurate and valuable data insight & actionable intelligence across an organization's data environment.
BigAI adopts a security and privacy-by-design approach using BigID's own private models and servers, so no data is shared with public models. In addition, organizations are empowered with a specialized AI capabilities to address their data initiatives:
Make Your Data Easier to Understand: BigAI improves the quality of the data environment by automatically providing friendlier names to data tables and columns, making it easier to interpret, analyze, and compare data.
Document Clustering Made Easy: BigAI makes document clustering easier by automatically generating friendly cluster titles, allowing for easy indexing and searching through metadata. Document clustering promotes better data governance and management practices, improving productivity and efficiency when working with large amounts of data and documents.
Faster Way to Get Answers: BigChat, a virtual personal assistant, helps guide and instruct organizations to better address their data initiatives. By leveraging the quality and richness of BigID documentation, BigChat uses BigAI to quickly generate answers to complex, technical, and bespoke questions.
"At BigID, we're always pushing the boundaries of what's possible with data security, privacy, governance, and compliance," said Dimitri Sirota, CEO, and co-founder of BigID. "With BigAI, we're giving our customers the power to unlock the full potential of their data environments. Whether you're a CISO looking to secure your organization's data or a data analyst searching for better insights, BigAI is the solution you need to take your data journey to the next level."
About BigID
BigID's data intelligence platform enables organizations to know their enterprise data and take action for privacy, protection, and perspective. Customers deploy BigID to proactively discover, manage, protect, and get more value from their regulated, sensitive, and personal data across their data landscape. BigID has raised $485 million in funding since its founding in 2016 and has been recognized for its data intelligence innovation as a 2019 World Economic Forum Technology Pioneer, named to the 2020 Forbes Cloud 100, and listed on the 2021 Forbes.

Veracode, a leading provider of intelligent software security solutions, today launches Veracode Fix, a new AI-powered product. Trained on Veracode’s proprietary dataset, Veracode Fix suggests remediations for security flaws found in code and open-source dependencies.
Shifting the Paradigm from Merely ‘Find’ to ‘Find and Fix’
“For far too long, organizations have had to choose between remediating software security flaws and meeting aggressive deadlines to push code into production. Veracode Fix makes it possible to deliver more secure software faster, at lower cost, and with higher confidence,” said Brian Roche, Chief Product Officer at Veracode.
“Through the power of AI and machine learning, leveraging GPT (Generative Pre-trained Transformer) technology, we’ve revolutionized the way developers and security teams address software security issues. Nearly two decades ago, Veracode pioneered a new industry standard as a cloud-based SaaS security platform. Today, we set a new bar, moving beyond application security testing to intelligent software security.”
Since its inception in 2006, Veracode has been committed to helping organizations find, understand, and remediate software security risk. The release of Veracode Fix brings software security to the next level by changing the scope of application security from merely ‘find’ to ‘find and fix.’
Automated Attacks Require Automated Response
Traditionally, when a flaw is found, developers research and rewrite code to manually fix the security issue. This requires enormous effort when compounded across thousands of security flaws in a codebase. This approach typically delays releases into production and increases security debt.
“Fixing security flaws has traditionally been a manual effort—until now,” said Roche. “With the increase in automated attacks, it’s no longer tenable to continue to remediate flaws entirely manually. Veracode Fix paves the way to a scalable mechanism to remove vulnerabilities before attackers can exploit them.”
Veracode Fix will be generally available with initial support for Java and C# in June 2023. To learn more about Veracode Fix, read more here.
