Tenable Cloud Security for Healthcare Organizations
Secure every layer of your cloud—from infrastructure to patient data

As healthcare providers accelerate digital transformation through cloud adoption, they face growing risks from misconfigurations, over-permissioned identities, and exposed PHI (Protected Health Information). Legacy tools fall short in securing this dynamic environment—especially under the pressure of HIPAA, HITECH, and other healthcare compliance mandates.
Tenable Cloud Security offers a comprehensive, healthcare-ready cloud security solution as a part of an exposure management platform that unifies visibility, secures sensitive workloads, and enforces compliance across multi-cloud environments. Built to protect the full cloud lifecycle—from DevOps to patient care systems—Tenable helps security teams see and prioritize what matters, close compliance gaps, and prevent data breaches before they affect care delivery.
Why Tenable Cloud Security?
360° Cloud Visibility
Unify infrastructure, workloads, identities, and data—including EHR systems and connected medical devices—across multi-cloud and hybrid environments. Identify toxic combinations like internet-exposed clinical services with admin-level access or exposed patient records.
Risk-Based Exposure Management
Go beyond surface-level alerts. Tenable correlates vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, malware, and identity risks to reveal likely attack paths targeting PHI, research data, and life-critical systems.
HIPAA and HITECH Compliance, Continuously
Stay audit-ready with real-time scanning, pre-built HIPAA/HITECH control mappings, and automated evidence collection. Tenable supports compliance with frameworks like HITRUST, NIST CSF, CIS, and ISO 27001.
Comprehensive Identity & Entitlement Control at Scale
Ensure least-privilege access for care teams, admin staff, and service accounts. By using Tenable Cloud Infrastructure Entitlement Management (CIEM) with Just-In-Time Access (JIT), healthcare IT teams gain the control and auditability required to meet privacy obligations.
Protect Sensitive and Regulated Health Data
Automatically discover PHI, clinical datasets, and AI/ML training data in cloud storage. Control access and prevent leakage using built-in Data Security Posture Management ( DSPM) and AI Security Posture Management (AI-SPM) to meet compliance while enabling innovation.
Key Capabilities
Unify Risk Across the Cloud Ecosystem
Correlate risks across clinical applications, medical data pipelines, and DevOps workflows. Tenable helps prioritize remediation based on patient impact, system criticality, and regulatory exposure.
Cloud Lifecycle Security for Healthcare Workloads
From deployment through runtime, continuously inventory and monitor cloud resources—virtual machines, containers, Kubernetes clusters, EHR backend systems, and infrastructure as code (IaC).
Identify and Remediate Misconfigurations
Proactively detect misconfigured storage buckets exposing PHI, risky permissions, and outdated system configurations. Leverage Tenable Research vulnerability intelligence to prioritize risks by exploitability and healthcare relevance.
Enforce Least-Privilege Access
Discover all users, applications, and service identities. Analyze entitlements and enforce least-privilege policies across cloud environments. Integrate with healthcare Identity and Access Management ( IAM) platforms to streamline policy enforcement.
Mitigate Vulnerability Blast Radius
Identify how vulnerabilities in cloud-based medical apps or backend services can propagate across systems. Contextualize threats using real-time logs, IAM data, and environment topology to limit potential patient impact.
Monitor and Secure Health Data and AI Systems
Continuously track where PHI, imaging data, and AI/ML datasets reside. Control access with time-bound, just-in-time approval processes. Secure AI-driven clinical workflows by remediating infrastructure and configuration risks.
Discover and Protect AI Workloads in Clinical Environments
AI/ML in diagnostics and personalized care is exploding. Tenable secures cloud-based AI services by classifying training data, limiting access, and identifying misconfigurations in real time—preserving model integrity and compliance.
Empowering Healthcare Cyber Resilience
Tenable Cloud Security enables hospitals, research centers, and digital health platforms to defend sensitive workloads while meeting stringent regulatory requirements. By delivering unified visibility, real-time risk insight, and continuous compliance controls, Tenable empowers healthcare organizations to protect patient trust, maintain operational uptime, and innovate securely in the cloud.
Backed by the Tenable One Exposure Management Platform, Tenable Cloud Security helps healthcare CISOs and cloud architects manage exposure holistically—without compromising care delivery.
