1. Which of the following are types of Tenable.sc sensors? (Select all that
apply)(select all that apply)
A Nessus Scanner(correct)
B Nessus Agent(correct)
C Tenable.io(correct)
D Tenable Core + Nessus(correct)
- Correct Answer: Tenable.sc supports multiple sensor types: Nessus Scanners
for active scanning, Nessus Agents for local host scanning, Tenable.io as a cloud
platform, and Tenable Core + Nessus as a pre-built virtual appliance.
2. What are the minimum hardware requirements for a Tenable.sc
deployment?(select all that apply)
A. 8 GB of RAM(correct)
B. 125 GB of storage(correct)
C. Four (4) 2 GHz CPU cores(correct)
D. 2 GB of RAM and 20 GB storage
,- Correct Answer: Tenable.sc requires at minimum: 8 GB RAM, 125 GB storage,
and four 2 GHz CPU cores. These specifications support the application database,
scan data storage, and processing requirements.
3. What are the minimum hardware requirements for a Nessus Scanner?(select all
that apply)
A. 4 GB of RAM(correct)
B. 30 GB of storage(correct)
C. Four (4) 2 GHz CPU cores(correct)
D. 8 GB of RAM
- Correct Answer: A Nessus Scanner requires: 4 GB RAM, 30 GB storage, and
four 2 GHz CPU cores. Requirements are lower than Tenable.sc as Nessus handles
scanning only, not data aggregation or reporting.
4. How can Tenable.sc and Nessus be deployed in virtualized environments?
A. Only through physical dedicated hardware
B. Through Tenable Core as a virtual image, or as a traditional application on
supported OS platforms
C. Only through Tenable.io cloud deployment
D. Only on VMware — no other hypervisors supported
- Correct Answer: Both can be deployed via Tenable Core as a pre-built virtual
image (VMware, Hyper-V, Azure) or installed traditionally as an application on
supported platforms such as RHEL and CentOS.
5. Which of the following statements about Tenable.sc licensing are correct?
(Select all that apply) (select all that apply)
, A. An IP in two repositories counts only once(correct)
B. Each active network interface on a multi-NIC host counts separately(correct)
C. Host discovery scans do not count toward license(correct)
D. All IPs across all repositories count individually
- Correct Answer: Key licensing rules: IPs appearing in multiple repositories are
counted once only; each actively scanned interface on a multi-NIC host counts
separately; host discovery scans are excluded from IP counts.
6. Where is Tenable.sc typically managed in an enterprise environment?
A. By individual endpoint users
B. By the NOC or SOC
C. By the firewall team only
D. Directly by Tenable support staff
- Correct Answer: Tenable.sc is typically managed by the Network Operations
Center (NOC) or Security Operations Center (SOC), as it provides centralized
visibility into vulnerability data across the environment.
7. What is the minimum required network connection speed between Tenable.sc
and Nessus scanners?
A256 Kbps
B512 Kbps
C1 Mbps — persistent connection
D10 Mbps
