Recognition underscores Tenable’s growing influence in securing the modern cloud attack surface with unified, context-rich risk visibility.
Tenable, the exposure management company, has been named a Major Player in the inaugural IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Cloud-Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP) 2025 Vendor Assessment, recognizing its growing leadership in cloud-native security solutions.
The ranking reflects Tenable’s ability to deliver an out-of-the-box CNAPP solution that seamlessly integrates with Tenable One, enabling customers to reduce risk across cloud environments without needing additional tools. The IDC MarketScape report highlighted Tenable Cloud Security’s deep visibility, risk prioritization, and remediation capabilities across multi-cloud platforms, including AWS, Azure, GCP, and Oracle Cloud.
According to the report, “Tenable Cloud Security provides visibility information tailored to specific cloud providers… Each cloud risk finding is explained with its context, detailing the criticality level based on impact and likelihood of exploitation.”
This tailored intelligence helps customers understand which issues pose real threats and how to fix them — efficiently and at scale.
“We believe being named a Major Player in the first-ever IDC MarketScape for CNAPP is a powerful validation of our strategy and our commitment to helping customers reduce risk across their entire attack surface,” said Eric Doerr, Chief Product Officer, Tenable. “Reducing cloud risk is essential to managing overall exposure. We’re providing the context and intelligence that organizations need to act before threats are exploited.”
Tenable Cloud Security brings together visibility, identity-aware risk analysis, and automated remediation in a single platform — enabling DevOps and security teams to collaborate effectively, reduce tool sprawl, and strengthen cyber resilience.
With fast deployment and out-of-the-box capabilities, Tenable’s CNAPP offering helps customers identify toxic access combinations, prioritize critical vulnerabilities, and unify cloud and on-premises insights — all essential to securing today’s complex digital environments.
The recognition marks a major milestone for Tenable as cloud-native security continues to evolve from niche capability to boardroom priority. As threat actors increasingly exploit cloud misconfigurations and identity gaps, platforms like Tenable Cloud Security offer a strategic advantage in anticipating, understanding, and mitigating risk.
