Threat Exposure Management (TEM) is a critical cybersecurity tool for organisations in today’s digital landscape. It proactively identifies and addresses vulnerabilities within an organisation’s digital infrastructure, effectively neutralising cyber threats before they can infiltrate your network.
Why TEM Matters
Cyberattacks are becoming increasingly sophisticated, with malicious actors constantly developing new tactics to breach systems. TEM empowers organisations to stay ahead of these threats by identifying and mitigating vulnerabilities before they escalate into significant security incidents.
By implementing TEM, your organisation can:
- Identify weaknesses in your network infrastructure.
- Rapidly address security gaps.
- Minimise the risk of cyberattacks.
How TEM Works
TEM utilises specialised software to comprehensively scan your network, pinpoint potential entry points for attackers, and guide you in fortifying these vulnerabilities.
Continuous Monitoring
TEM constantly monitors for emerging vulnerabilities. This real-time monitoring capability enables your organisation to maintain a robust security posture.
Risk Assessment
TEM identifies and prioritises vulnerabilities based on their potential impact, allowing your organisation to focus remediation efforts on the most critical areas.
Key Components of a TEM Program
Asset Discovery
This process identifies all devices and software connected to your network. Comprehensive visibility of your digital assets is essential for effective security management.
Vulnerability Scanning
Vulnerability scanning systematically assesses your systems for known weaknesses, akin to checking for unlocked doors and windows in your home.
Threat Intelligence
By incorporating up-to-date threat intelligence, TEM solutions provide insights into the latest cyberattack techniques, enabling your organisation to anticipate and proactively defend against emerging threats.
Remediation Planning
TEM assists in developing effective remediation plans to address identified vulnerabilities, ensuring that security gaps are closed promptly and effectively.
Benefits of TEM for Your Organisation
Enhanced Security
By proactively identifying and addressing vulnerabilities, TEM significantly strengthens your organisation’s overall security posture.
Cost Savings
Preventing cyberattacks through TEM can result in substantial cost savings. Addressing a security breach after it occurs can be significantly more expensive than implementing preventative measures. TEM may even help to reduce cyber liability insurance premiums.
Peace of Mind
TEM provides continuous monitoring and proactive threat mitigation around the clock.
Choosing the Right TEM Solution
An effective TEM solution should possess the following characteristics:
- Real-time reporting capabilities
- Seamless integration with existing security tools
- Clear and concise reporting formats
Implementing TEM
- Evaluate your current security infrastructure. With a view to understanding and documenting the requirements that the TEM solution needs to meet.
- Define and document the policies and procedures that the TEM solution will support.
- Select a TEM solution that aligns with your organisation’s specific needs and requirements.
- Deploy the TEM solution and initiate a comprehensive network scan.
- Develop and execute a remediation plan to address identified baseline vulnerabilities.
- Maintain scanning regime based on your organisation’s policies. Adapt your security measures based on evolving threats.
