Exposure Management The Proactive Tool to Fend Off Sophisticated Cyber Threats>
– @SecurityLinkIND
Exposure Management is a proactive tool to fend off sophisticated cyber threats by identifying and reducing digital attack surfaces exposed to the internet. This includes reducing the attack surface available to cyber adversaries by monitoring the assets, activities, applications and content of an organization. Managing exposure is the process of identifying and sufficiently vetting items related to an organization’s IT environment and competitive landscape that could be targeted by threats from outside sources. Implementation of effective vulnerability management processes and sound security architecture are important here. Exposure management helps in identification of potential risks related to the environment. Through Identity and Access Management (IAM), organizations can create and implement policies and procedures to control access to critical systems and data. It also helps create visibility into the system and identify configurations that can be exploited by malicious actors for attack. It is also important to monitor and pinpoint attack vectors and transaction data to identify malicious activity. Threat intel also helps in understanding what kind of attack threats to look out for. Partnerships with industry leaders in risk management and threat intelligence can provide organizations with valuable insight into identifying and mitigating new and ongoing cybersecurity threats. By utilizing industry expertise in combination with existing security strategies, organizations can significantly reduce their exposure to digital threats.
