Under Attack?
CTEM as a Service
Every remediation decision is also a decision about what waits. A security leader who moves one fix ahead of another is expected to explain why, to the IT team doing the work, to leadership approving the time, and to anyone asking how priorities were set. Severity scores alone rarely hold up under that question. Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) as a Service gives you a way to answer it with evidence, continuously, and with the platform and advisors already in place.
This guide sets out how the service works, what it includes, and what changes for your security and IT teams once remediation is ranked by the risk it removes.
Who this guide is for
Security and IT leaders in Canadian and North American organizations who already run vulnerability scanning and want a defensible way to decide what gets fixed first, including:
-
CISOs and security managers accountable for posture.
-
IT and infrastructure leads who own the remediation work.
-
Leaders of teams of any size where the list of open exposures is growing faster than the time available to work through it.
What's in this guide
-
The five stages of the CTEM cycle, and where in that cycle the evidence behind a priority is produced.
-
How attack path analysis ranks exposures, and why one on several paths can outrank a critical CVE.
-
Which exposures a scanner does not report, and why they belong in the same ranking as the ones it does.
-
What changes when Security and IT work from one list, and how each fix is followed from ticket to closure with weekly reporting.
-
The two service levels side by side, and the option to add remediation specialists when the backlog outgrows the hours available.
