Tenable Security Center and Amazon Inspector compete in cybersecurity. Tenable holds an edge in pricing and user support, whereas Amazon Inspector is favored for advanced features and integration.
Features: Tenable Security Center includes comprehensive vulnerability assessment, real-time analytics capabilities, and threat prioritization aids. Amazon Inspector features automated security assessments, AWS service integration, and optimization for cloud-centric operations.
Room for Improvement: Tenable Security Center could enhance cloud integration, simplify deployment processes, and reduce setup costs. Amazon Inspector could improve personalized customer support, expand non-AWS integration options, and provide more detailed manual assessment tools.
Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Tenable Security Center requires on-premises deployment with strong support services for smooth implementation. Amazon Inspector, designed for the cloud, offers easy AWS deployment but tends to lack the personalized customer service of Tenable.
Pricing and ROI: Tenable Security Center involves higher initial costs but offers long-term ROI through extensive insights. Amazon Inspector is cost-effective within AWS, providing significant ROI for cloud-native businesses.
I have not needed to use AWS support for Inspector, which indicates that the service is almost perfect.
Automation for scheduling 'turn on' and 'turn off' operations and better integration with CloudWatch for alarms could enhance the service's functionality.
The reports and plugins for reports and scans could benefit from enhancements.
Scalability is not an issue with Amazon Inspector as it is scalable to the maximum, covering any business scale effectively.
The pricing for Amazon Inspector is very fair, and I would rate it as two out of ten, with ten being the most expensive.
The product is somewhat pricey, reflecting its valuable features and status as a high-quality solution in the vulnerability management market.
Amazon Inspector is highly stable, rated ten out of ten, and this stability impacts business security and administration positively.
The most valuable feature of Amazon Inspector is the categorization of findings, which filters vulnerabilities by instance, container image, container repository, and Lambda function.
Tenable Security Center provides an overall score of vulnerabilities, comparing an organization with others in the same industry.
Amazon Inspector is an automated security assessment service that helps improve the security and compliance of applications deployed on AWS. Amazon Inspector automatically assesses applications for exposure, vulnerabilities, and deviations from best practices. After performing an assessment, Amazon Inspector produces a detailed list of security findings prioritized by level of severity. These findings can be reviewed directly or as part of detailed assessment reports which are available via the Amazon Inspector console or API.
Amazon Inspector security assessments help you check for unintended network accessibility of your Amazon EC2 instances and for vulnerabilities on those EC2 instances. Amazon Inspector assessments are offered to you as pre-defined rules packages mapped to common security best practices and vulnerability definitions. Examples of built-in rules include checking for access to your EC2 instances from the internet, remote root login being enabled, or vulnerable software versions installed. These rules are regularly updated by AWS security researchers.
