Tenable Launches AI Aware: A Pioneering Security Solution for AI and Large Language Models

Tenable®, a leader in exposure management, has unveiled AI Aware, a cutting-edge detection capability integrated into Tenable Vulnerability Management, the world’s top vulnerability management platform. AI Aware offers comprehensive visibility into AI applications, libraries, and plugins, enabling organizations to identify and mitigate AI-related risks confidently, without disrupting business operations.

The swift rise of AI technologies in recent years has introduced significant cybersecurity and compliance challenges that demand proactive measures. Security teams are now grappling with AI-specific issues, including vulnerability detection, data leakage prevention, and the control of unauthorized AI use.

Tenable Research reveals that over a third of security teams encounter AI applications in their environments that were not formally approved. From late June to early September alone, Tenable detected over 9 million instances of AI applications across more than 1 million hosts. This unchecked AI usage increases cybersecurity risks, compounded by a growing number of AI vulnerabilities. Tenable has discovered several security flaws in AI tools, including Microsoft Copilot, Flowise, and Langflow.

AI Aware revolutionizes security for AI solutions by employing a multi-faceted approach that includes agents, passive network monitoring, dynamic application security testing, and distributed scan engines. These techniques detect both sanctioned and unsanctioned AI software, libraries, and plugins, along with their vulnerabilities, thereby reducing risks related to exploitation, data leakage, and unauthorized resource usage. This comprehensive detection strategy provides unparalleled insight into AI security within modern ecosystems.

Shai Morag, Chief Product Officer at Tenable, stated, “The rapid adoption of AI has led many organizations to overlook critical cybersecurity, privacy, and compliance concerns. Unlike any technology before, AI presents unique risk factors, especially with rushed implementations. Tenable AI Aware empowers organizations to embrace AI securely, ensuring their defenses keep pace with AI’s rapid evolution.”

AI Aware is available within Tenable Vulnerability Management, Tenable Security Center, and Tenable One, offering features such as:

  • Dashboard Views: Visualize the most common AI software, vulnerable assets, and communication ports used by AI technologies.
  • Shadow Software Development Detection: Identifies unapproved AI development components, helping organizations align with best practices.
  • AI Detection Filters: Focus vulnerability assessments on AI-specific findings, combined with Tenable Vulnerability Prioritization Rating (VPR) to effectively prioritize AI-related vulnerabilities.
  • Asset-Centric AI Inventory: Provides a detailed inventory of AI packages, libraries, and plugins across assets.
