As cyber threats continue to increase, traditional approaches are no longer enough. Continuous threat exposure management (CTEM) offers a proactive framework to identify, assess and mitigate cyber risks; aligning security strategies with business objectives.
Why CTEM?
CTEM empowers organizations to:
Proactively Reduce Risk: Go beyond reactive security to continuously validate and optimize your defenses.
Align Cybersecurity with Business Goals: Translate technical findings into actionable busi...

The question, "How exposed are our assets right now," represents a mindset shift in how organizations are approaching cybersecurity. It's not a question that defensive security can answer.
The next step in the evolution of security teams is proactive cybersecurity where teams search for and address vulnerabilities and exposures, bringing together different parts of the cybersecurity program and enhancing cyber resilience.
Continuous Threat Exposure Management is the repeatable process, create...

Security leaders recognize that legacy approaches to security operations cannot answer the critical question, “How exposed is our organization?” To this end, exposure management, or continuous threat exposure management (CTEM), takes a proactive approach to find and fix what matters most by taking an attacker’s view of what can be exploited.
While vulnera...

Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) is not a tool or a technology, it's a program. The rationale behind adopting this concept and rolling it out in your organization is straightforward: Continuously plan, monitor, and reduce your level of risk using validation technologies that prompt prioritized remediation actions based on the business context, so executives understand and engage.
Gartner predicts that organizations that adopt this model will be far less likely to be breached.

Supply chain vulnerabilities represent one of the most substantial cyber-related threats. A single point of failure, whether malicious or resulting from a human error, has the potential to cascade through the entire downstream network shards and disrupt the global economy. A mere 15 companies worldwide account for 62% of the market for cybersecurity services.

According to a World Economic Forum report, "cyber insurance pricing in the United States rose by 96% in the third quarter of 2021, marking the most significant increase since 2015 and a 204% year-over-year increase."
At the same time, or as a consequence, cyber insurance premiums increased by 33.5% in 2020 alone, the extent of coverage is reduced, and insurers are i...

2023 is shaping up to be another challenging year for cybersecurity defenders. Although some will say they hear this every year, this time is different. Attackers are not cutting back and have increased access to nation-state-style tactics. Ransomware is also showing no sign of slowing down. An unstable economic climate will continue to put pressure on budgets, and m...

The bear market and looming recession have C-suites tightening company belts everywhere. While it's true that cybersecurity is uniquely affected in downturns, it is affected, nonetheless. Cybersecurity budgets are less elastic and, thus, less likely to be cut. Yet while CISOs are not losing their budgets, they are being called upon to do more without getting more res...

Security control validation is a term gaining traction in the cyber community. Is it just a buzzword pushed by marketing teams, or does it have practical implications and benefits? To understand the merits of security control validations, it helps to keep in mind the last few years’ evolution of the IT and cyber threat landscape, shares Yoni Leitersdof, US CTO at Cymulate.
On the IT front, much has happened. Agile development, with its frequent deployments that change the systems infrastructu...
