Increasing digitalization and connectivity mean the attack surfaces of most organizations are growing. This means more IT assets to track and manage, plus more potential attack routes for threat actors to target. The threat situation is constantly increasing, especially in the area of vulnerabilities – last year over 30,000 new vulnerabilities were published. So how can you get an accurate view of your attack surface and where it might be open to exploitation?

Security teams today normally perform ongoing vulnerability remediation as a key part of their efforts to secure applications. This process entails applying updates to remove known flaws, typically published as Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs), that are discovered in third-party libraries within application code. While “applying updates” might sound like a straightforward task, in practice, eliminating vulnerabilities has become increasingly challenging in the current environment.
