Falcon Exposure Management FAQ

Exposure Management is a proactive security discipline, similar to vulnerability management, aimed at managing risks to prevent adversary attacks, and complements runtime security solutions such as EDR.

Exposure Management equips you to tackle deceptively simple questions - how exposed is your organization? It delves into understanding how attackers see your organization and the potential intrusion risks your organization may encounter. This includes recognizing the ever-expanding types of attack surfaces (external assets, cloud, etc.) and vulnerability types (CVE vulnerabilities, non-CVE vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, etc).

Legacy risk-based vulnerability management approaches are unfit for the modern enterprise:

The expanding attack surface makes it impossible to assess risk with complex, legacy scanning infrastructure.
Disjointed tools disguised as platforms result in blind spots and only focus on providing alerts with no real-time action.
Without real-time adversary context, teams can’t effectively prioritize vulnerabilities, leading to alert fatigue and security gaps.

Falcon Exposure Management is the world’s only AI-powered exposure management offering built on pioneering adversary intelligence to secure all critical attack surfaces.

It gives you complete attack surface visibility (internal and external assets and unknown critical exposures).
It enables you to think like an adversary, see potential attack paths, and proactively stop breaches stemming from vulnerabilities.
It allows you to cut complexity and costs by consolidating point products (EASM, RBVM, CAASM) to a unified platform.

Discover and identify coverage gaps: Unveil and monitor all assets, internal and external, to minimize critical security risks.
Prioritize vulnerabilities across the attack surface: Effectively validate and prioritize vulnerabilities for proactive breach prevention.
Accelerate incident response: Pinpoint the source of an attack and take decisive action with guided remediation steps on the endpoint.
Unveil on-prem and off-prem exposures: Examine privileged identities and internet assets for potential attack paths.
Get Center for Internet Security (CIS) benchmarks support: Assess your operating systems against CIS benchmarks to enable compliance attestation.
