Tenable Vulnerability Management cloud pricing from ~$7,000/year for 300 assets (estimate). Enterprise custom. 30-day free trial.

NVIDIA AI Enterprise bundled with NVIDIA GPU hardware and cloud subscriptions. Pricing varies by deployment. 90-day free trial for evaluation.

Review Tenable's data handling policy. Vulnerability scan results and asset data processed on Tenable's infrastructure.

NVIDIA AI Enterprise provides the software layer on customer-managed GPU infrastructure. Data processed on customer's own NVIDIA GPU hardware or NVIDIA-certified cloud instances.

• ✓Industry standard Nessus scanner with 40,000+ customers provides broad market validation
• ✓VPR AI prioritisation by exploit risk is more actionable than CVSS-only severity ranking
• ✓Exposure Graph attack path analysis identifies which vulnerabilities are actually exploitable to reach critical assets
• ✓FedRAMP authorisation for US government vulnerability management programmes

• ✓NIM pre-built inference containers dramatically reduce time-to-production for deploying popular AI models
• ✓NVIDIA GPU dominance means AI Enterprise is the operating environment for most enterprise AI workloads
• ✓Production-optimised inference with TensorRT provides highest performance on NVIDIA hardware
• ✓Enterprise security patching and support for the AI software stack reduces operational risk

• ✕30-day trial requires significant setup to evaluate properly in complex environments
• ✕Pricing scales significantly with asset count for large enterprises
• ✕Wiz and other cloud-native tools are capturing cloud vulnerability management market share

• ✕Requires NVIDIA GPU hardware investment — not accessible for CPU-only environments
• ✕Software complexity still significant for teams building production AI infrastructure from scratch
• ✕NVIDIA's hardware pricing and availability have been constrained — evaluate hardware supply chain
