CTEM Working Session

Stop Managing CVE Lists. Start Managing Exposure.

AI-speed threats have outpaced vulnerability management.

 

Book a practical working session with Quisitive's security experts to review your real attack surface, validate what's actually exploitable, and define a CTEM cadence your team can sustain.

Book Your Working Session

Book 30 minutes with a security advisor to review your environment and understand what's exposed, what's exploitable, and what to fix first.

Your Security Program Is Running on Outdated Assumptions

Most enterprise security teams are still measuring risk with metrics designed for a different era -before SaaS sprawl, AI workloads, and identity-based attacks changed everything.

25K+

New CVEs every year. Patching everything immediately is a mathematical impossibility.

Minutes.

That's how long it takes AI agents to discover and exploit vulnerabilities in 2026, faster than your team can triage them.

Zero

Attack paths in CVSS scores. A "Critical" CVE on a printer is less dangerous than a "Medium" on a Domain Controller.

What Is Continuous Threat Exposure Management?

CTEM is Gartner's five-stage framework for managing security exposure as a continuous operating rhythm. It shifts the focus from finding vulnerabilities to understanding and validating real attack paths across your entire environment.

 

Leading security teams are implementing CTEM through Microsoft Security Exposure Management, the Exposure Graph that connects identities, devices, and data into a unified attack surface view.

Step 1

Scope

Identify business-critical assets that, if compromised, would cause the greatest impact.

Step 2

Discover

Map every asset, identity, and misconfiguration across your hybrid-cloud estate.

Step 3

Prioritize

Rank risks by exploitability and business impact and identify choke points where a single fix neutralizes multiple attack paths.

Step 4

Validate

Simulate attack paths to confirm exploitability and test your defenses. Validate without commissioning a full pen test every time.

Step 5

Mobilize

Orchestrate remediation across IT and security teams. Translate validated risks into specific, prioritized actions.

Meet Spyglass: CTEM as a Monthly Operating Rhythm

Most organizations have the Microsoft tools. What they lack is the expertise, cycles, and operating model to run a 24/7 CTEM program. Spyglass provides all three without ripping out a single tool you already own.

Strategic Advisory

A dedicated security advisor provides ongoing coaching, roadmap development, and alignment guidance. Not a ticket queue. A real expert who knows your environment.

MDR: 1-Hour SLA

Add Managed Detection and Response for around-the-clock threat monitoring, detection, and response with 1-hour time-to-detect and 1-hour time-to-resolve SLAs.

24×7×365 Exposure Monitoring

Continuous monitoring across your Microsoft tenant. We don't wait for alerts, we hunt for exposure and resolve issues before they reach the SOC or make the news.

Tool Optimization

We've saved customers up to $1.5M in annual security spend by eliminating overlapping tools and activating security features already included in their Microsoft licenses.

Compliance Alignment

Continuous mapping to NIST 800-53, NIST 800-171, ISO 27001, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and CMMC 2.0 - with board-ready progress reporting built in.

AI Attack Surface Coverage

Govern Copilot deployments, identify over-privileged AI workloads, detect Shadow AI usage, and protect sensitive data before AI surfaces it to the wrong user.

FAQ

CTEM is Gartner's framework for continuously managing your organization's security exposure - not just cataloguing vulnerabilities. Rather than chasing a never-ending list of CVEs, CTEM maps the actual attack paths an adversary could traverse, validates whether they're exploitable, and drives targeted remediation. In an AI-driven world, where threat actors can generate custom exploit code in minutes, CTEM is how security teams move from reactive patching to proactive exposure control.
