Mandiantâs new solution allows exposure hunting for a proactive defense>
CSO Online – Shweta Sharma
Mandiant Proactive Exposure Management combines a suite of capabilities to effect exposure hunting, threat correlation, penetration testing, and real-time intrusion defense. Mandiantâs exposure management claims a holistic approach to enterprise security, as opposed to disparate point solutions, and includes scanning organizational assets to know whatâs exposed, whoâs targeting them, their ability to handle and attack, and if an attack is happening in real time.

Mandiantâs new solution, as the first step, attempts to gain visibility into all the assets belonging to the organization by combining exposure discovery with global threat intelligence. This will include business-critical asset discovery and classification, assessment for vulnerabilities, IOCs and misconfigurations, and exposure enumeration.

This attack surface visibility is achieved through Mandiantâs in-house, industry-standard technologies like external attack surface management (EASM), cyberattack surface management (CAASM), and cloud security posture management (CSPM).

As the second leg of this approach, Mandiantâs exposure management combines threat intelligence from various sources to educate security teams with an attackerâs initial reconnaissance techniques and the entire attack lifecycle. After identifying the scope of the attack surface and areas of the threat landscape to focus on, Mandiantâs new solution offers a capability to continuously test and validate the effectiveness of the organizationâs security controls.

Mandiant also uses breach analytics to map IOCs to security events logged in a customerâs environment.
