NopSec JumpStart for Cisco/Kenna Customers
In December 2025, Cisco announced end-of-life for Kenna Security. We’ve created a dedicated program specifically for Kenna customers.
Our goal: minimize disruption while upgrading your capability from traditional RBVM to Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM).

Beyond Replacement: An Upgrade to CTEM
The market has evolved from Risk-Based Vulnerability Management (RBVM) to Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM). NopSec gives you everything above and beyond what Kenna did:
Attack Path Mapping and Analysis
Visualize attack paths across your environment, with asset, control, and identity contexts—not just individual vulnerabilities
Control
Validate compensating controls autonomously, continuously—stop manually checking effectiveness
AI/ML-Powered Recommendations
LLM-driven remediation guidance that goes beyond generic patch advisories
“The platform ingests all the data and tells us what matters upfront. We can finally patch less and fix more.”

Why Cisco/Kenna Customers Choose NopSec
You used Kenna because CVSS scores alone are not meaningful. NopSec was built on the same philosophy, but with more transparent algorithms and complete contextual enrichment.
Organizations were migrating from Kenna to NopSec—drawn by our transparent, white-box prioritization capabilities and the expansion to CTEM. We’ve successfully transitioned customers who needed more than what Kenna could offer and future-proofed their exposure management programs.
