Continuous Threat and Exposure Management (CTEM)
Edgescan was delivering Continuous Threat and Exposure Management for years before Gartner coined the term in 2022. Vulnerability detection, validation, and prioritization, plus Penetration Testing as a Service (PTaaS) and Attack Surface Management (ASM): Edgescan has been in the business of CTEM since before CTEM.
Scope your exposure and improve your security posture with a continuous, adaptable, and cost-effective solution that covers a broad range of networks, endpoints, and cloud environments across your organization’s security landscape.
That’s how you stay secure as the threat matrix constantly evolves and your web-facing infrastructure grows: by continuously monitoring, assessing, prioritizing, and resolving security issues on a platform that powers an integrated and holistic approach to vulnerability management.
Constant Vigilance, No Surprises
Edgescan delivers continuous monitoring and real-time intelligence to security teams at some of the largest companies in the world, helping them to map their attack surfaces, identify vulnerabilities, validate those threats and root out false positives. The Edgescan platform is also built to guide and track the remediation process and ensure security gaps are truly closed.
This is continuous vulnerability management at the highest level, and with a human element: Edgescan’s team of CREST and OSCP-certified experts not only conducts hundreds of pentests and thousands of assessments per month. They’re also on-hand to answer questions and guide your remediation process any time you call the support desk.
This isn’t a tool, its service, and it’s always on. You won’t be caught off-guard by an unexpected vulnerability that pops up on an annual pentest, because you’ll catch vulnerabilities and fix them well before then. That’s how you develop a security posture wherein serious threats are continuously addressed before they’re exploited by malign actors. It’s the reason industry analysts state; organizations that use CTEM report a 30% drop in cyber incidents.
Reduce Your Mean Time to Remediate (MTTR)
If you operate on an annual pentest model, you’re not on a level playing field with threats agents and cyber criminals. It’s a point-in-time assessment and as the landscape changes, your window of exposure grows. With CTEM, you’re continuously served in-depth intelligence on what and where your vulnerabilities are and how to fix them. All discovered threats and exposures are risk-rated and prioritized in the Edgescan dashboard so your security team can understand the risks and address the most pressing issues first, before they become a problem for your organization.
With comprehensive vision across the attack surface and smart insights into how to address vulnerabilities as they’re identified, Edgescan clients have seen a reduction in remediation time of up to 55%.
Adaptable and Dynamic Threat Detection
Annual penetration testing provides you with a snapshot of your network infrastructure and the vulnerabilities lurking therein that is accurate at the time—but static. Today’s threat matrix is constantly evolving. Malign actors escalate and adapt their methods while your organization continually grows its digital assets as the enterprise evolves. Change gives rise to risk as the landscape changes risks evolve. CTEM is designed to keep ahead of this challenge.
With CTEM, you’re constantly mapping and re-mapping the ever-changing landscape. It’s like a GPS, and with validation and prioritization, it’s always pointing you towards the most efficient route to your destination: a robust security posture that turns your organization’s digital estate into a fortress.
Reduce Costs and Consolidate Your Budgets
In a vacuum, it might seem cost-effective to just put your resources towards testing on an annual basis or whatever’s required by the regulatory framework in your space. But ultimately, this kind of reactive model can prove more resource-intensive than a CTEM model where you constantly monitor the attack surface and close security gaps as they open up.
Continuous vulnerability management is keeping your house clean rather than waiting until things get bad to clean it all up, and it saves money. Some enterprises have reduced their overall security costs by up to 50% by implementing CTEM, all while dramatically improving their security postures.
