Digital transformation has made vulnerability management operationally infeasible, build a programmatic response and more effectively manage your exposure.
Exposure management extends beyond vulnerabilities alone. The sheer velocity of digital transformations continues to expand our digital footprint at an exponential rate which develops an operationally infeasible amount of vulnerabilities to manage. Reducing your risk requires a new approach to proactively understand your attack surface, better prioritize your efforts, and measure progress over time.
Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) is “a program for managing a wider set of exposures that are likely to affect business priorities, rather than simply inventorying and processing.”
“By 2026, organizations prioritizing their security investments based on a continuous exposure management programme will be three times less likely to suffer from a breach.”

The objective of Gartner Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) program is to drive a consistent and actionable security posture improvement plan that business executives can understand and architecture teams can act upon. Gartner’s CTEM program is designed around three pillars which specify the critical questions security teams must address:
“What does my organization look like from an attacker’s point of view, and how should it find and prioritize the issues attackers will see first?
“What software is present and what configuration has my organization set that will make it vulnerable to attack?”
“What would happen if an attacker carried out a campaign against my organization’s infrastructure, how would its defenses cope and how would processes perform?”
These three pillars should work together into a holistic program designed to scope, discover, prioritize, validate and mobilize.
Randori Recon is an external attack surface management solution designed to perform discovery of your IPv4 and IPv6 assets through a series of high-fidelity reconnaissance techniques. By starting with what is definitively you, Randori Recon then leverages unique scanning techniques to attribute assets connected to that starting point with your organization. Once identified, Randori then overlays actionable insights and adversarial context onto these assets to get your organization on target faster.
Randori leverages a continual discovery process to identify externally exposed assets. Uncovering the delta between what is known within your vulnerability management solution and discovered by Randori to provide administrators with a complete inventory. Merging Randori’s prioritization into Tenable.io administrators can optimize their time spent by leveraging detailed risk-based prioritization to help prioritize patching the most impactful threats to their organization.
Randori Attack gives you the power of a high-end red team, in an automated and scalable platform, enabling you to continuously test your defenses against attacks that mirror the adversaries you face. By exposing gaps and breaking down issues as they arise, Randori empowers you to discover the unexpected and stay one step ahead of attackers.
