The inaugural episode of the Xposure Podcast, held at Xposure Summit 2025, featured a panel of cybersecurity experts discussing the importance of Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) for organizations. Featuring leaders from IDB Bank, Avidity Biosciences, and Wyndham Hotels, the discussion emphasized the challenges and realities of implementing CTEM. Gartner's 2023 assertion that prioritization of CTEM could lead to three times fewer breaches by 2026 underscores the necessity for effective operation. The panel highlighted the importance of asset inventory, identity management, and frequent validation in creating a successful CTEM program to effectively defend against adversaries.
Gartner's 2023 prediction states that organizations prioritizing Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) will be significantly less likely to suffer breaches by 2026.
A strong CTEM program must begin with thorough asset inventory and identity management, addressing vulnerabilities like weak service accounts and over-permissioned users.
Operationalizing CTEM is crucial; it requires a commitment to consistent validation, particularly with internal assets, to counter the constant challenges posed by adversaries.
Effective cyber risk reporting is essential for influencing board-level decisions; organizations need to effectively communicate their CTEM strategies and successes to stakeholders.
