Frequently asked questions.

Answers to common questions about Tenarie — how it works, who it is for, how it handles security and evidence, and how to get started.

What is Tenarie?

Tenarie is a cybersecurity workspace that helps professionals and teams manage frameworks, controls, testing, evidence, risk, vulnerabilities, assets, tasks, workflows and reporting in one connected place.

Is Tenarie a GRC platform?

Yes, but Tenarie is designed to go further than traditional GRC. It supports governance, risk and compliance workflows, while also helping teams validate controls, capture evidence, track remediation and prove cybersecurity progress.

Who is Tenarie for?

Tenarie is built for cybersecurity professionals, cyber and GRC teams, consultants, advisors and enterprise assurance teams. It supports individuals who need structure, teams that need shared assurance workflows and organizations that need clearer reporting and evidence.

What makes Tenarie different?

Tenarie focuses on practical cybersecurity execution and control validation. Rather than only documenting risks and controls, Tenarie helps teams connect frameworks, controls, tests, evidence, findings, remediation and reporting.

What are test packages?

Test packages are reusable validation workflows that help teams assess whether controls are working as intended. They can include test steps, expected outcomes, evidence requirements, result history and links back to controls.

Which frameworks does Tenarie support?

Tenarie supports the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, MITRE ATT&CK reference content, custom frameworks and versioned framework management. Framework availability remains subject to licensing, plan entitlement, activation and product availability.

Can Tenarie support custom frameworks?

Yes. Tenarie supports custom frameworks so organizations can work with internal control models, client-specific requirements or frameworks that are not available as standard.

How does Tenarie handle evidence?

Tenarie allows teams to attach evidence to relevant records, including tests, results and assessments. This helps keep evidence connected to the work it supports, rather than scattered across disconnected folders and documents.

Can Tenarie help with audit readiness?

Yes. Tenarie helps teams keep a clearer record of controls, assessments, tests, evidence, findings, remediation and reports. This can support audit readiness by keeping assurance information organized and easier to review.

Does Tenarie replace all security tools?

No. Tenarie is not designed to replace every security tool. It acts as a cybersecurity workspace that connects assurance, control testing, evidence, risk, reporting and workflow activity. Other tools may still provide scanning, monitoring, detection, ticketing or operational security functions.

Does Tenarie support integrations?

Tenarie is designed to support connectors, workflows and API-enabled use cases, subject to plan and rollout status. The goal is to help teams reduce manual effort and connect evidence sources to assurance workflows.

How secure is Tenarie?

Tenarie includes security capabilities such as MFA, role-based access control, scoped permissions, audit logging, private evidence storage, account security controls and organization-level data isolation.

Where is Tenarie built?

Tenarie is built by Tenarie Limited in New Zealand.

Does Tenarie offer a free plan?

Yes. The Personal plan is free and does not require a credit card. Paid Team, Business and Enterprise plans provide additional capacity and capabilities.

Which plans are available?

Personal supports one person in one workspace. Team supports small teams with included users, workspaces, connectors and collaboration features. Business increases those allowances and provides broader API capability. Enterprise uses contract-defined capacity and includes advanced Test Packages. Framework and integration availability remains subject to licensing, activation and rollout status.

Can consultants use Tenarie with clients?

Yes. Tenarie is designed to support consultants and advisors who need repeatable workspaces, structured reviews, evidence-backed outcomes and client-specific assurance workflows.

Can Tenarie support enterprise teams?

Yes. Tenarie is designed to scale through workspaces, permissions, reporting, API access, connectors and multi-organization architecture, subject to plan availability.
