Stop Remediating Backward - Reactive Approaches Aren't a Long-Term Solution

Prioritization in vulnerability management is not just about fixing problems but fixing the right problems at the right time. Not all vulnerabilities have the same level of risk. But gathering details to understand vulnerability impact takes time, a huge challenge for already overworked staff. Many are forced to work backward, taking critical issues obtained from 3rd party sources like CISA KEV or a Reddit forum and then search for assets that it may apply to.

Web Application Security Testing: Struggles, Shortfalls and Solutions

High-value data, mission criticality, and sheer numbers make web applications a compelling target for cyberattacks. According to Verizon’s 2023 Data Breach Investigations Report, web applications were the most commonly exploited vector in both incidents and breaches last year.1 There’s another reason why web applications may be so attractive to threat actors. Most security teams simply cannot keep pace with demands for application updates and patching, testing, and vulnerability remediation.

Understanding Continuous Threat Exposure Management

CTEM, a comprehensive risk reduction framework, integrates visibility risk assessment, issue prioritization, and validation. This approach facilitates the continuous identification and testing of exposed systems, enhancing decision-making and enabling a more proactive threat response. Download the white paper, Understanding Continuous Threat Exposure Management, to learn about CTEM's core components and how they contribute to cybersecurity resilience, how CTEM addresses the challenge of managing risk on attack surfaces, and how CyCognito's capabilities align with CTEM's requirements.

External Exposure & Attack Surface Management For Dummies

Your attack surface has grown, it's now in cloud infrastructure and across subsidiaries and unknown, unmanaged assets are everywhere. How are you finding these? Attackers look for, find and attack these unknown assets and when there are externally exposed risks, sensitive data and critical systems are put in danger. Read now, External Exposure & Attack Surface Management For Dummies.

CyCognito

CyCognito solves one of the most fundamental business problems in cybersecurity: seeing how attackers view your organization, where they are most likely to break in, what systems and assets are at risk and how you can eliminate the exposure.

The Biggest Security Nightmares from 2023 and How They Could Ruin Your 2024

It feels like the number of security issues affecting vital internet-exposed assets is never-ending. No one can predict the next big vulnerability. But exposure management techniques can help prepare your organization for a wide range of issues by identifying, validating, and mobilizing your response to emerging threats. These processes also include validating fixes and issues, a well-documented mobilization process, and automatic scanning for high value assets.

What CISOs Need to Know About the SEC's New Rules

Working as a Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) has never been easy or glamorous. But with the recent adoption of new rules by the U.S. Security and Exchange Commission on cybersecurity risk management, strategy, governance and incident disclosure, life as a CISO has just gotten harder. Adding to the longstanding organizational risk CISO’s have always managed, now they have to contend with personal risk as well.
