Moving from reactive to proactive cybersecurity with Exposure Management
In a guest blog post for Tenable, Jorge Orchilles, Senior Director of Readiness and Proactive Security at Verizon, shares his firsthand insights and lessons learned as the company aligned its offensive security functions under a unified exposure management strategy, which fosters collaboration and improving the way threats are prioritized for remediation.
Key takeaways:
- A reactive approach to cybersecurity is insufficient at a time when attack surfaces are more complex than ever and threat actors are gaining sophistication.
- Exposure management requires a mindset shift toward a risk-based approach instead of being compliance-driven.
- Severity scores are not enough to prioritize remediation efforts; these need to be prioritized based on real-world attack scenarios.
- Implementing exposure management involves organizational change as well as the right technology.
“At its core, exposure management is about shifting from reactive security to proactive security. It’s not just about fixing vulnerabilities anymore. It’s about understanding risk in the context of the business,” writes Orchilles. “So, like Verizon, the industry must focus on what really matters: Preventing the attacks that could actually lead to a compromise. And for those of us at the tip of the spear in this shift, it’s time to stop being reactive and start managing exposure like the strategic risk it is.”
