Managing the Expanding Attack Surface
Course
Todd Pauley of Texas Education Agency, Stephen Cospolich of Charles Schwab and Reynaldo Gonzalez of Cummins discuss Attack Surface Management, continuous asset mapping and machine learning to identify vulnerabilities before attackers exploit them.
Your digital footprint is expanding faster than your ability to secure it. Cloud platforms, third-party vendors and remote workforces create countless entry points - and attackers are finding them first.
Breaches like Sisense and SolarWinds share a common thread: attackers exploited overlooked external-facing assets that organizations didn't know were vulnerable. The question isn't whether your attack surface is growing, it's whether you can see and secure it before threat actors do.
Attack Surface Management, or ASM, transforms this challenge from reactive damage control to proactive threat prevention.
In this session, the panel of experts will discuss:
- Continuous mapping of external-facing assets and shadow IT to eliminate dangerous blind spots;
- Identifying misconfigurations and unpatched systems before they become breach entry points;
- Using machine learning to focus on critical vulnerabilities and accelerate response times;
- Seamlessly connecting ASM with SIEM and SOAR platforms for enhanced threat detection.
