Gartner, Inc. · "Competitive Landscape: External Attack Surface Management", April 3, 2023
Modern organizations are agile – they continually add new systems, applications, and network devices.
In this era of digital transformation and cloud migration, with accelerated development schedules and greater complexity, your cyber landscape becomes a fertile ground for attackers to exploit.
As the attack surface rapidly expands and evolves, it becomes imperative for modern organizations to take the first crucial step in their exposure management program: gaining comprehensive visibility into their hybrid attack surface, and understanding the connections between applications, assets, and users.
It was another record-breaking year for cybersecurity. With a new CVE published every 17 minutes, 2023 demonstrated that the speed of cybercrime is not slowing down. While certain industries were more targeted than others, all organizations know they must do more to remain protected. An increasing number of high or critical alerts, combined with more sophisticated tools and techniques, make it hard to stay ahead.
In an era of rapidly expanding threats, cybersecurity teams find themselves in a challenging situation. Talent shortages, budget constraints, and new regulatory demands have stretched them thin. However, amidst these challenges, prioritization becomes paramount. The real question is: how can you gain a comprehensive understanding of your organization’s vulnerabilities and determine the crucial steps to mitigate the biggest risks when valuable security data is scattered across isolated systems?
