Tenable + Memtro

Which critical vulnerabilities affect the most assets across our Tenable estate?

Tenable connects Memtro to Tenable Vulnerability Management. It reads vulnerabilities across your estate, most severe first, with VPR, CVSS and how many assets each affects. It reads assets with their exposure and criticality scores, one asset's vulnerabilities, and your scans with status, run history and findings by severity. Tags and scanners are there too. When asked and granted, it can launch, stop, pause, resume or delete a scan, create a tag, and add or remove tags on assets. Workbench reads are capped by Tenable at 5,000 rows and 450 days, and listing scanners needs the Scan Manager role.

In Memtro

What you can do with Tenable in Memtro

Ask in plain English from chat, your editor, a scheduled job or your own agent. The model picks the right Tenable tool, reads what it needs, and answers with the source cited.

What it does

  1. 01Vulnerabilities across the estate, most severe first, with VPR, CVSS, instance counts and the number of assets affected.
  2. 02Assets with host name, IPs, operating system and their criticality and exposure scores, and one asset's vulnerabilities.
  3. 03Scans with status, schedule and last run, one scan's hosts and findings by severity, and its run history.
  4. 04Tags with their category and value, and scanners with status, platform and how many scans each runs.
  5. 05When asked and granted, launches, stops, pauses or resumes a scan. A launch sends scan traffic to hosts on your network and may email the scan's configured recipients.
  6. 06When asked and granted, deletes a scan and its results for good, creates a tag, or adds and removes tags on assets, which can change who sees an asset and what scans it.

Acts when asked

When you ask it to

These tools change something in Tenable. The model is told to use them only when you ask for exactly that, and an administrator grants each one by name to the teams that may use it; a personal connection acts only after its owner allows it.

  1. 01Launch a scan, optionally against other targets (scans the customer's network)
  2. 02Stop a running scan
  3. 03Pause a running scan
  4. 04Resume a paused scan
  5. 05Delete a scan with its results (permanent)
  6. 06Create a tag value in a category
  7. 07Add or remove tags on assets
In practice

Ask it like you would a colleague

Once Tenable is connected, these are the kinds of things people ask. Plain questions, no syntax. If the answer lives partly in another system you have connected, Memtro looks there too.

  • Which critical vulnerabilities affect the most assets?

  • Which assets have the highest exposure scores?

  • What did the latest run of the external scan find, by severity?

  • Which scanners are switched off?

  • Pause the weekly internal scan.

01

Finding the worst exposure

Maya Okafor, security lead at Acme Ltd, asked which critical vulnerabilities touched the most assets. Memtro listed the critical findings from the vulnerability workbench with their VPR and affected-asset counts, then the most exposed asset's other vulnerabilities. She took the list to the weekly patch review.

02

Pausing a busy scan

Tom Reilly, IT manager at Northwind, saw a scan slowing a busy network and asked Memtro to pause it. With the action granted to his team, Memtro paused the running scan and confirmed its status. That evening he asked it to resume the scan, and Tenable started sending scan traffic again.

Teams

Where it fits

The teams that lean on Tenable most, a question each of them asks, and what they connect beside it.

Better together

Works with

A record in Tenable is rarely the whole story. Connect the systems that hold the rest and Memtro checks them together, then remembers what it learned so the next question starts further along.

Using something else for the same job, or both? Each connector has its own tools; connect as many as you like.

Setup

How to connect

Connect withAccess key and secret key
  1. 1

    In Tenable, open the profile icon, then My Account, then API Keys, and generate a key pair. This replaces any pair you already had, and both keys are shown once.

  2. 2

    In Memtro, open Connections → Tenable and paste the Access key and the Secret key.

  3. 3

    An administrator grants the scan and tag actions by name to the teams that may use them. Listing scanners needs the Scan Manager role in Tenable.

  4. 4

    Ask which critical vulnerabilities affect the most assets.

Also works from

Chat in the dashboard, the OpenAI-compatible API, scheduled jobs, and any MCP client: Claude Code, OpenCode, Cursor, Claude Desktop. The Tenable tools are the same everywhere.

FAQ

Questions

Can Memtro change anything in Tenable?+

Only when you ask, and only what it has been granted: launch a scan, optionally against other targets (scans the customer's network); stop a running scan; pause a running scan; resume a paused scan; delete a scan with its results (permanent); create a tag value in a category; add or remove tags on assets. Every other tool reads, searches or lists. The Connections page labels the tools that act, an administrator grants each one by name to the teams that may use it, and a personal connection acts only after its owner allows it.

Who can use a Tenable connection?+

A personal connection serves only your own requests. A shared connection serves the organisation: everyone, or only the teams an admin chooses. Admins can always add shared connections; other members need the permission.

Does Memtro store my Tenable data?+

Credentials are encrypted at rest. Tool results are cached briefly so agent loops do not repeat identical calls, and the facts the model extracts are saved to your organisation's memory with provenance (system, record and link) so they can be checked and superseded.

How do I connect Tenable?+

Access key and secret key. In Tenable, open the profile icon, then My Account, then API Keys, and generate a key pair. This replaces any pair you already had, and both keys are shown once.
