Tenable Buying Eureka To Bring Data Security Posture Management To Cloud Platform

By Amit Chowdhry • Jun 12, 2024

Exposure management company Tenable Holdings announced that it has signed a definitive agreement to acquire Eureka Security, a provider of data security posture management (DSPM) for cloud environments. And Eureka Security helps security teams gain a holistic view into an organization’s cloud data security footprint, fight policy drift and misconfigurations that put data at risk, and improve their security posture over time. The acquisition is expected to close this month.

By bringing DSPM capabilities to its CNAPP solution, Tenable will help customers identify key evidence related to cloud data risk, including where sensitive data resides in the cloud, who has access to that data and the severity of the risk posed by potential data compromise. This is central to an organization’s ability to accurately assess its cloud security compliance.

The DSPM integration will round out the current Tenable Cloud Security solution, which already includes key capabilities such as unified CNAPP, iron-clad CSPM protection, cloud workload protection, industry-leading CIEM, and others. This will give security teams the context and prioritization guidance to make efficient and accurate remediation decisions.

The Eureka Security DSPM capabilities are expected to be natively integrated into Tenable Cloud Security and its CNAPP solution later this year. And the acquisition is not expected to have a material impact on revenue this year.

KEY QUOTES:

“Eureka Security’s technology will enable Tenable to provide even better prioritization of cloud risks and identify toxic combinations beyond vulnerabilities, misconfigurations and over-privileged access to include data at risk as well. This is another example of how we’re pushing the envelope in cloud security innovation for customers and leading the market forward by developing best-in-class capabilities.”

  • Shai Morag, senior vice president and general manager of Cloud Security, Tenable

“Eureka Security’s data-centric approach provides the visibility, control and automation needed to navigate the dynamic cloud landscape while ensuring the highest level of security and compliance. We’re excited to join Tenable. Integrating our capabilities into Tenable’s CNAPP offering creates a compelling capability for customers. Tenable also brings an expansive customer base, and strong go-to-market capabilities. We couldn’t have found a better match to help us expand our mission to reduce cloud data risk globally.”
