Overview

In a lively discussion, guests Michael Gianarakis and Ben Jones help define CTEM, a security process that has quickly gained traction thanks to being championed by the analyst firm Gartner. They debate what CTEM adds to cybersecurity, how it builds on previously established concepts, and where ASM and threat intelligence play a role.
