Tenable Unveils AI-Powered Breakthrough in Vulnerability Prioritisation
New Delhi, July 29, 2025 —Tenable®, the exposure management company, today announced the next evolution of its industry-leading Tenable Vulnerability Priority Rating (VPR) to sharpen precision and focus on risks that pose the greatest threat. Powered by generative AI, enriched threat intelligence and context-aware scoring, Tenable VPR enables organisations to quickly understand vulnerability impact, weaponisation and precise remediation actions.
While static Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) broadly flags 60% of vulnerabilities as high or critical, Tenable VPR narrowed this to a focused 3% at its launch in 2019. With these latest AI-driven enhancements, Tenable VPR delivers twice the clarity and precision by leveraging real-time data to pinpoint the critical 1.6% of vulnerabilities that represent actual business risk. These efficiency gains, combined with enhanced explainability and contextualisation, translate to faster mean-time-to-remediation, optimised resources, and strategically aligned security efforts with organisational priorities.
“Our biggest problem was noise. We had thousands of vulnerabilities, and no clear way to know which ones posed a genuine threat,” said Jorge Orchilles, senior director, Readiness and Proactive Security, Verizon. “Tenable VPR changed that by showing us what attackers are actually exploiting right now. It lets us focus our resources on the handful of issues that truly matter, which has made a real, measurable difference in how quickly we can get critical patches out.”
“We’re taking our game-changing Tenable VPR to the next level with these AI-powered enhancements,” said Eric Doerr, chief product officer, Tenable. “Tenable VPR brings an unmatched precision and depth of threat intelligence, context and explainability to cyber operations. With these critical insights at their fingertips, organisations can clearly visualise why an exposure matters, where they are vulnerable and how to close their priority risks.”
In addition to hyper-focused risk prioritisation, key enhancements to Tenable VPR include:
-
AI-powered insights and explainability: VPR insights provide instant clarity, helping users quickly grasp why an exposure matters, how it’s been weaponised by threat actors, and receive clear, actionable mitigation guidance. AI-generated threat summaries and remediation insights help users quickly understand real-world risks and next steps.
-
Prioritisation with industry and regional context: Enhanced filtering, querying and metadata help organisations understand and prioritise vulnerabilities based on real-world threats to their specific industry and region, ensuring critical exposures relevant to the business are addressed first.

India Launches National Cyber Security Research Council & Hosts Hackathon X – A Milestone for Cyber Defense
July 26, 2025: In a landmark move to strengthen India’s national security architecture, the National Cyber Security Research Council (NCSRC) has been officially launched to counter the rapidly evolving threats in cyberspace. With a broad and ambitious vision to safeguard the nation’s digital infrastructure, the Council will drive cutting-edge research, develop protective technologies, and foster strategic collaboration with state and central government agencies.
The formation of the NCSRC comes at a crucial time, as India—one of the most connected nations globally—faces growing and complex cyber threats across governmental, military, and civilian networks. The Council will work in close coordination with agencies to identify vulnerabilities, conduct threat assessments, and implement robust defense strategies.
Under the visionary leadership of Dr. E. Khaliraj, Director of the NCSRC, the Council has already made remarkable strides in building national awareness and capacity. Dr. Khaliraj, a veteran cybersecurity strategist and educator, has led the Council in executing over 150 awareness and social impact programs across India. He is widely regarded for his commitment to democratizing cybersecurity knowledge and his efforts in bringing cyber literacy to grassroots communities. A strong advocate for ethical hacking, youth engagement, and technological innovation, Dr. Khaliraj has been instrumental in establishing more than 300 Cyber Resource Centres across the country. His long-term vision is to transform India into a global hub for cyber excellence, research, and resilience.
As part of this nationwide mission, the Council has launched Hackathon X, India’s largest and most prestigious Capture the Flag (CTF) competition in partnership with various government stakeholders. Held from July 25–27 in Bengaluru, Hackathon X invites young cybersecurity enthusiasts aged 18–35 to demonstrate their skills, solve real-world security challenges, and contribute to India’s cyber resilience.
The competition offers cash prizes of ₹1,00,000, ₹50,000, and ₹25,000, and is open to students pursuing computer science, cybersecurity, or related fields. Registration is open at https://hackathonx.in.
