Tenable launches open-source AI agent exchange for cybersecurity community

0

Tenable has launched the CyberAgents Exchange, an open-source repository designed to help security practitioners discover, share and build AI agents and related components for cyber defence.

The company said the exchange is intended to address a growing pattern in which security teams build AI tools in isolation, duplicating effort and limiting reuse. Tenable positioned the platform as an alternative to general-purpose AI marketplaces and vendor-controlled exchanges, which it argued can create friction for security teams through irrelevant listings or platform lock-in.

According to Tenable, the CyberAgents Exchange is designed to host AI agents, skills, MCP servers and multi-agent playbooks. It also aims to increase transparency by showing who built each component, when it was created, and whether it has community support, which Tenable said would help users assess trust and suitability.

SentinelOne and Recorded Future are participating as founding members, with Tenable saying the companies will contribute agents, integration frameworks and playbooks focused on autonomous security operations and threat intelligence.

“Security is a team sport. We’ve addressed a gaping hole in the ecosystem of AI Agents, built for defenders, by defenders. With the CyberAgents Exchange, we’re creating a collaborative ‘town square’ where cybersecurity practitioners can build, test, improve and share the best in agentic defence,” said Vlad Korsunsky, Chief Technology Officer, Tenable.

“To truly scale defences against autonomous, AI-driven threats, the security community must move past isolated development and vendor-locked siloes,” said Braden Preston, vice president of product management, SentinelOne. “As a founding member of the CyberAgents Exchange, SentinelOne is proud to champion a transparent, open-source foundation for agentic security. By sharing trusted, autonomous components and collaborative playbooks, we are empowering security teams globally to innovate faster, defend smarter and outpace modern adversaries together.”

“Joining the CyberAgents Exchange as a founding member lets us bring world-class threat intelligence directly into the open-source frameworks security teams are building today,” said Jamie Zajac, Chief Product Officer at Recorded Future. “But the promise of AI agents in security depends entirely on whether they can be trusted. Intelligence doesn’t just make agents smarter. It makes them traceable, auditable and repeatable. That’s the foundation the community needs to build autonomous defence that’s not only fast, but reliable.”

Tenable said there are no fees to list or use agents on the platform, and directed prospective contributors to exchange.tenable.com.
