Continuous Threat Exposure Management

CTEM shifts from inside-out CVE counting to an attacker-first workflow: discover externally reachable assets, validate exploitability, prioritize by attacker reach and business impact, and mobilize fixes. Vulnerability management scans known assets; CTEM finds unknown exposure and proves what an attacker could actually use.

CTEM replaces volume counts with business-outcome metrics — for example, the share of urgent, attacker-validated issues; engineering hours saved by fixing the right items; ongoing validation coverage for critical assets; and measurable reduction in attack-path reachability. These outcomes give leadership a concise, business-centric view of security effectiveness and resource use.

CyCognito performs seedless, outside-in discovery across cloud, SaaS, web apps, APIs, open ports, on-prem systems, subsidiaries, partner domains and shadow IT, and attributes each asset to the correct business owner.

Setup is minimal. CyCognito does not require agents, credentials, sensors or predefined asset lists. All you need to do is provide a small set of business identifiers (such as domains, brands, etc.) and the platform automatically discovers your external footprint, then continuously maps and tests your internet-exposed cloud assets for risk.

CyCognito uses large-scale, safety-focused active testing that mirrors attacker techniques — running 90,000+ automated tests (including unauthenticated DAST and targeted active checks) across 30+ exposure categories such as OWASP application weaknesses, data exposure, abandoned assets, authentication bypass and more. Testing is continuous and configurable; teams can run daily validation for critical assets. Each finding includes test artifacts, and fixes are revalidated automatically to prove closure.

CyCognito reduces noise by validating which findings are reachable and exploitable, modeling attack paths, and prioritizing based on blast radius, PII data access and business criticality. The result is fewer findings, each supported by evidence and clear remediation context.

CyCognito enriches triage and prioritization, supplies exploit proof and remediation steps, and routes issues into ITSM/SOAR with owner context. Because CyCognito continuously rediscovers and retests assets, it automatically validates a deployed fix and closes the issue once verification succeeds.
