With EASM becoming essential to security operations, many vendors are jumping on board, but not all solutions are enterprise-grade. Basic EASM products can waste time, undermine security teams, and offer a false sense of protection. To avoid these pitfalls, ask your vendor these five critical questions—if they can’t answer, it’s a red flag.

Many organizations believe their security testing is robust, but common tools like vulnerability scanning and penetration testing often leave surprising gaps. Infrequent tests, limited asset coverage and inaccurate results leave exposure and risk. Achieving ideal security goals requires full coverage, high accuracy, and frequent testing—criteria most approaches struggle to deliver. CyCognito bridges these gaps with automated testing for network systems and web applications, helping organizations strengthen their security, continuously.

CISA’s proactive approach to cybersecurity is highlighted, focusing on two directives: BOD 22-01, which mandates agencies to consult the “Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog,” and BOD 23-01, aimed at improving agency asset visibility and vulnerability detection. These directives emphasize asset discovery and vulnerability enumeration as crucial activities for risk reduction. CyCognito’s platform aligns with these directives by automating discovery, contextualizing assets, and prioritizing vulnerabilities based on attacker perspective, enabling organizations to efficiently close gaps in their attack surface management.

Continuous threat exposure management (CTEM) is a risk reduction strategy introduced by Gartner in 2021. Designed to significantly reduce mean time to remediation (MTTR), it relies on coordination of people, processes and technology. Choosing the right CTEM technology is critical to efficient implementation.
