What type of data does the Vulnerability Analysis Tool focus on?

The Vulnerability Analysis Tool in Tenable Security Center focuses on all discovered vulnerabilities. This comprehensive approach allows organizations to identify a wide spectrum of potential security weaknesses present in their systems. By analyzing all vulnerabilities, not just the critical ones, the tool helps to create a complete picture of an organization's security posture.

This inclusivity means that even vulnerabilities that are not immediately critical can be addressed to prevent potential exploits that may go unnoticed. By considering the entire range of vulnerabilities, organizations can prioritize their remediation efforts more effectively based on risk and potential impact.

In contrast, focusing solely on critical vulnerabilities could lead to an incomplete understanding of the environment’s security risks, as less critical issues may still have the potential to be exploited or can contribute to a larger attack.
