Tenable.sc API Vulnerability scan data Security and Compliance

Tenable.sc (Security Center) API Integration

FortiSIEM can pull vulnerability scan data via the Tenable.sc API.

Tenable.sc scan data contains vulnerabilities found on a host. Each host vulnerability is converted into a separate FortiSIEM event with event type TenableSC-Vuln-Detected.

Configuration

Configuring Tenable.sc for FortiSIEM

Except for setting your Tenable account user name and password, no special configuration is needed for Tenable.sc.

Configuring FortiSIEM

Use the API Key and Secret in the previous step to enable FortiSIEM access.

Define Tenable Security Center Credential in FortiSIEM

Complete these steps in the FortiSIEM UI by first logging in to the FortiSIEM Supervisor node.

  1. Go to the ADMIN > Setup > Credentials tab.
  2. In Step 1: Enter Credentials, click New to create a new credential:
    1. Follow the instructions in "Setting Credentials" in the User's Guide to create a new credential.
    2. Enter these settings in the Access Method Definition dialog box and click Save:
    1. Settings Description
      Name Enter a name for the credential
      Device Type Tenable Tenable Security Center
      Access Protocol Tenable.sc API
      Pull Interval Choose the Pull Interval (Default 60 minutes).
      Port

      Enter the Port number. (Default 443)

      User Name Enter the User Name for the Tenable Security Center account.

  • Create IP Range to Credential Association, Test Connectivity and Pull Events

    From the FortiSIEM Supervisor node, take the following steps (In ADMIN > Setup > Credentials).

    1. In Step 2: Enter IP Range to Credential Associations, click New to create a mapping.
      1. Enter the host's IP address or host name in the IP/Host Name field.
      2. Select the name of the credential created in Define Tenable Security Center Credential in FortiSIEM from the Credentials drop-down list.
      3. Click Save.
    2. Select the entry just created and click the Test drop-down list and select Test Connectivity without Ping. A pop up will appear and show the Test Connectivity results.
    3. After Test Connectivity succeeds, an entry will be created in ADMIN > Setup > Pull Events corresponding to this event pulling job. FortiSIEM will start to pull events from Tenable Security Center using the API.

    To test for received Tenable.sc events:

    1. Go to ADMIN > Setup > Pull Events.
    2. Select the Tenable.sc entry and click Report.
    3. The system will take you to the ANALYTICS tab and run a query to display the events received from Tenable.sc in the last 15 minutes. You can modify the time interval to get more events.
