Google-owned cybersecurity provider Mandiant has launched Mandiant Proactive Exposure Management, a suite of products and services to help organizations focus on “attackable exposures” rather than just vulnerabilities.
“Exposures go beyond vulnerabilities and are potential exploitable entry points that can be used by an adversary to gain initial compromise into an organization or supply chain ecosystem,” said Michael Armistead, director of outbound product management at Google Cloud Security. “An exposure could be a vulnerability, a server misconfiguration, or a security control missing detections for specific indicators of compromise (IOCs) or commonly used threat actor tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs).”
