Scanner integration

Tenable finds it again every scan. Basirah closes the loop.

Tenable is thorough, which is its own problem. The same plugin fires cycle after cycle, VPR helps you sort the pile but the pile keeps refilling, and between scans nobody can say whether last week's fix actually took. You're reacting to a scanner's schedule instead of working a queue you trust.

How Basirah works with Tenable

Basirah pulls Tenable plugin findings and reconciles them with everything else you run, collapsing the same CVE on the same asset into one owned work item. It re-ranks the result as dollar exposure with FAIR, so VPR becomes one input among several rather than the final word. The scanner keeps finding; you stop re-triaging the same thing every cycle.

01

Plugin noise collapses into owned work

Recurring detections across Tenable.io, Tenable.sc, and Nessus correlate with findings from other scanners into a single item, so a re-fired plugin updates existing work rather than spawning a fresh ticket.

02

FAIR dollars on top of VPR

VPR tells you what's technically pressing. FAIR tells your board what it's worth. Basirah carries both, so the same finding can be defended to an engineer and to a budget owner.

03

Tenable's own re-scan as a verification source

When a fix is claimed, an on-demand Tenable re-scan can serve as the independent check — on its own or as part of a multi-scanner consensus where you want a higher bar.

The wedge

Proof the fix held

The gap Tenable can't close on its own is the wait. A fix deployed today sits unconfirmed until the next scheduled scan, and a failed patch hides in that window. Basirah triggers an on-demand re-test the moment work is claimed done — Tenable re-scan, a second scanner, or an API probe — and seals a signed evidence package when it passes. Recast and accepted-risk decisions stay traceable to the proof behind them.

Common questions

Which Tenable products are supported?

Tenable.io, Tenable.sc, and Nessus. Findings from all three dedupe into the same work items so you triage the vulnerability rather than the scanner.

Does Basirah replace VPR for prioritization?

It complements it. VPR feeds the model alongside exploit signals, asset exposure, and FAIR loss, so prioritization reflects business impact rather than a single score.

Can you verify a fix without waiting for the next scan?

Yes. Verification runs on demand — an on-demand Tenable re-scan, an independent scanner, or an API probe — so a fix is confirmed in hours rather than whenever the schedule comes back around.
