Tenable® Holdings, Inc. has announced its acquisition of Eureka Security, Inc., a move aimed at enhancing its cloud security capabilities. Eureka Security specializes in data security posture management (DSPM) for cloud environments, providing comprehensive visibility into and control over an organization’s cloud data security footprint. This acquisition aligns with Tenable’s strategy to bolster its cloud-native application protection platform (CNAPP), addressing critical issues such as policy drift and misconfigurations that pose data risks.
The integration of Eureka Security’s DSPM technology into Tenable’s offerings is expected to empower security teams with enhanced tools for prioritizing and mitigating cloud-related risks. According to Shai Morag, Senior Vice President of Cloud Security at Tenable, this acquisition will expand their ability to identify vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and over-privileged access, while also focusing on protecting sensitive data within cloud infrastructures.
Liat Hayun, CEO of Eureka Security, highlighted the synergy between the two companies, emphasizing how their data-centric approach complements Tenable’s existing suite of cloud security solutions. The merger is seen as a strategic move to fortify Tenable’s market position and deliver greater value to its extensive customer base. While the acquisition is not anticipated to impact revenue significantly this year, the long-term benefits are expected to solidify Tenable’s leadership in cloud security innovation.
Tenable, known for its Nessus® vulnerability management platform, serves approximately 44,000 organizations globally, including a substantial portion of the Fortune 500 and Global 2000. The company’s acquisition of Eureka Security marks a pivotal step towards enhancing cloud security posture management capabilities, ensuring customers have robust tools to navigate the complexities of cloud environments securely.
