In Tenable Vulnerability Management, assets are defined as network entities that potentially represent security risks. Assets can include laptops, desktops, servers, routers, mobile phones, virtual machines, software containers, and cloud instances. Tenable Vulnerability Management allows you to track assets that belong to your organization, helping to eliminate potential security risks, identify under-utilized resources, and support compliance efforts.
