Key Business NeedsThe City of San Diego needed a robust platform that could rapidly deliver a unified and prioritized view of network vulnerabilities and threats, without disrupting its 24/7 business operations. In addition, the solution had to be flexible, easy to deploy, able to integrate with existing infrastructure and scalable to support future growth.

Tenable Products SelectedAfter assessing other companies and solutions, the City of San Diego chose Tenable SecurityCenter Continuous View™ integrated with Nessus®, the world’s most widely-deployed vulnerability and compliance scanner. This enterprise solution delivers continuous visibility and actionable context across the city’s interconnected blend of new and legacy network technologies and applications.

The City of San Diego manages the operations and services of the country’s eighth largest city through a complex enterprise IT system integrating 24 networks -- a blend of both new and decades-old technologies -- from 40 municipal departments. Facing

numerous security challenges, including a lack of asset visibility, network maps or tools to evaluate and manage its overall risk exposure -- and dealing with nearly

one million cyberattacks per day -- the city turned to Tenable. Today, SecurityCenter CV, integrated with the Nessus vulnerability scanner, provides the City of San Diego

with continuous monitoring and centralized, integrated visibility of threats and vulnerabilities across its vast interconnected network, without interfering with its

24/7 business operations -- and saving it more than $1.3 million per year.

Resulting BenefitsWith its unique sensors and advanced analytics, Tenable continuously scans, monitors and prioritizes network threats across the city’s vast IT ecosystem. This comprehensive view of its security posture enables its IT team to quickly and remotely remediate threats -- saving time and money and enabling team member to handle more critical issues. Tenable solutions have significantly reduced the City of San Diego’s threat exposure, slashing the average number of machines affected each month from 200 to 35, and saving the city over $1.3 million in lost productivity per year.
