Overview
Join Searchlight Cyber’s Solution Engineers Andrew and Rachel for a day in the life of managing ever-increasing queues, and learn how threat intelligence and attack surface management can help you act on exposures before attackers do.
Patching vulnerabilities and tackling tickets is often managed on a first-come, first-served basis, but that can result in high-priority issues going unresolved until it’s too late. We’ll follow a fictional company through 24 hours and show where disconnected tools cause real misses: a public-facing asset that appears just after the daily scan, and a mid-severity vulnerability whose true risk only becomes clear when you see it advertised for sale by an initial access broker.
We’ll show how your threat intelligence and attack surface management programs can combine to minimize blind spots and misprioritization by seeing both sides: your external exposure and what attackers are actually doing.
Key Takeaways
- How exposure shifts across time zones, and what scans miss between runs
- How disconnected threat intelligence and ASM lead to blind spots
- How to re-prioritize based on what attackers are targeting, not just severity scores
