Top Strategic Technology Trends for 2024: Continuous Threat Exposure Management
A Gartner® Report
According to Gartner®, continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) is a systemic approach to continuously refine cybersecurity optimization priorities. Its objective is to design actionable security exposure remediation and improvement plans that business executives can understand, and that architecture teams can act on. A CTEM cycle includes five stages: scoping, discovery, prioritization, validation, and mobilization. Organizations building a CTEM program use tools to inventory and categorize assets and vulnerabilities, and to simulate or test attack scenarios and other forms of posture assessment processes and technologies.
Gartner® predicts, "By 2026, organizations prioritizing their security investments based on a continuous threat exposure management program will realize a two-thirds reduction in breaches."
