Cloud Security Reinvented: Arrow and Tenable's Approach to Mitigating Cyber Risks
Do you want to elevate your business to new, loftier heights? If so, Arrow and Tenable are here to supercharge your business.
Arrow is uniquely positioned to help you reach your full potential alongside Tenable, a vendor dedicated to helping businesses secure their cloud environments and unlock growth opportunities.
The increasing reliance on cloud environments brings with it significant challenges. Cyber exposure has become a pressing business risk, as modern cloud architectures introduce new attack vectors, while tooling overload and a scarcity of expertise leave organisations vulnerable. The Tenable Cloud Risk Report 2024 highlights these growing complexities, particularly the “toxic cloud trilogy” of risks:
- Publicly exposed workloads
- Critically vulnerable systems
- Highly privileged access
The report uncovers alarming statistics about cloud vulnerabilities:
- 38% of organisations have high-risk workloads that combine public exposure, critical vulnerabilities, and excessive privileges—prime targets for attackers.
- 84% of organisations have risky access keys with excessive permissions, leaving critical security gaps.
- 23% of cloud identities have high-severity excessive permissions, increasing the likelihood of breaches.
- 80% of workloads contain unremediated critical CVEs, such as CVE-2024-21626, a severe container escape vulnerability.
- 74% of organisations have publicly exposed storage assets, including sensitive data—a factor linked to rising ransomware attacks.
- 78% of organisations expose Kubernetes API servers with insecure configurations, compounding security risks.
To tackle these challenges, Tenable Cloud Security offers a comprehensive solution. It secures the full cloud stack, from infrastructure and workloads to identities and data, while providing visibility across multi-cloud environments. With its industry-leading CNAPP capabilities, Tenable Cloud Security identifies toxic exposure combinations, offers actionable insights, and enables organisations to address critical risks quickly—even within tight timeframes.
Tenable Cloud Security addresses the pain points of IT professionals, including:
- Increased board-level scrutiny of security posture—delivering a business-aligned risk view and cyber exposure score.
- Overwhelming noise from unfiltered risks—providing actionable, prioritised risk reduction across the attack surface.
- Limited visibility over cloud identities—offering an intuitive UI for IAM analysis and threat detection.
- Lack of insight into cloud vulnerabilities—unifying siloed views to prioritise based on real-world impact.
By integrating Exposure Management, Tenable offers organisations a clear, actionable picture of risk. With automation and machine learning, Tenable One unifies asset visibility, contextual insights, and coordinated actions, enabling businesses to respond swiftly and reduce risk effectively.
A leading airline, for example, turned to Tenable to achieve unified visibility across their attack surface, spanning cloud, workstations, Entra ID, and external environments. The result? Real-time insights across multi-cloud assets, automated SLA tracking of security metrics, and a significant reduction in business risk and exposure.
With Tenable, Arrow is equipping businesses to navigate the complex cybersecurity landscape with confidence.
