Tenable: where is customer data stored and processed?
Tenable stores and processes customer scan data in the region the customer selects, and the documented regions include Frankfurt (Germany) and London (UK, for customers outside the EU/EEA). Backup data is stated to remain in the same region, which is assumed to apply to Frankfurt and London. Identity Exposure and admin user data are hosted by Microsoft Azure in several countries, including France, Ireland, the Netherlands, the UK, Hong Kong, Australia, Singapore, the USA, the UAE and India. Email is sent via SendGrid in the USA and the UK, and CRM, marketing and customer account management are handled by Salesforce, Marketo and TaskUs, mainly in the USA and Ireland. Technical support for Nessus Professional trial users is provided by Sutherland in the Philippines.
