Defenders in today’s digital world face a challenge due to fragmented security tools that make it hard to see the full picture of threats. This is where thinking in graphs comes in, allowing defenders to visualize relationships between assets, vulnerabilities, and threats, leading to a more proactive risk management approach.
Traditional vulnerability management is no longer effective, so exposure management has emerged as a better solution for focusing on vulnerabilities with the greatest risk. Microsoft recently launched Microsoft Security Exposure Management, which includes tools like Attack Surface Management, Attack Path Analysis, and Unified Exposure Insights to help security teams better understand their risk landscape and take action.
Attack Surface Management provides a complete view of an organization’s attack surface, highlighting critical assets for better protection. Attack Path Analysis goes further by prioritizing high-risk attack paths and guiding effective remediation. Unified Exposure Insights offer a clear view of an organization’s threat exposure, helping teams focus on priority areas and track progress towards proactive risk management.
Organizations that have tested Exposure Management have seen positive results, such as streamlined processes for incident prioritization and more effective patching strategies. By continuously updating and enhancing the features of Exposure Management, Microsoft aims to help organizations transition from reactive to proactive threat management by facilitating better collaboration among teams.
