Reduce Risk with Asset Exposure Management (CAASM)
See all your assets. Fix your coverage gaps. Reduce your risk.
Achieve a complete, accurate, and context-rich asset inventory through a fundamentally different approach to CAASM, empowering you to reduce asset risk like never before.
The Problem
Inaccurate asset inventories undermine effective risk management
Security teams spend countless hours trying to piece together an accurate asset inventory with data from multiple disparate systems. Despite these best efforts, asset lists remain incomplete and inaccurate, severely compromising risk assessments.
Traditional tools make it extremely difficult to update missing or incorrect information. New assets and the complexities of cloud native development, with its ephemeral assets, only compound the problem.
If your team struggles to answer key questions like these:
- How many assets do we actually have?
- What is the user, geo, department, etc., of each asset?
- How accurate is our CMDB?
- Who should be assigned a ticket to remediate a given asset?
- Which assets are missing protective software like EDR?
... it’s time for a new approach.

FAQ
Cyber asset attack surface management (CAASM) identifies, tracks, and manages all IT assets to ensure continuous visibility and control, reducing security risks and inefficiencies. By integrating data from various sources, CAASM provides a unified, accurate view of the attack surface, enhancing risk management and compliance.
A cyber asset is any system or resource that handles electronic data, such as a server, endpoint, mobile device, virtual machine, cloud service, or network device. These assets are prime targets for attackers, so it's crucial to identify them and implement appropriate security controls.
Asset exposure management is crucial for effective CTEM because it helps identify and prioritize vulnerabilities across an organization's entire attack surface. Through continuous monitoring of all assets, including cloud, on-premises, and IoT, it helps more quickly detect and mitigate security risks. Ultimately, this enables security teams to focus on the most critical threats, reducing the likelihood of successful cyberattacks. Learn more about CTEM.
