CardinalOps Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) is a platform that optimizes security controls across endpoint, cloud, identity, network, and other security layers. The platform addresses limitations of traditional vulnerability management and breach-and-attack simulation tools by providing a proactive and iterative methodology for assessing, refining, and enhancing security controls. The platform covers both prevention and detection controls, enabling security teams to identify, prioritize, and remediate exposure gaps. It provides visibility across multiple security layers, tools, and controls by leveraging adversary behavior expertise. The platform supports detection posture management capabilities including mapping detections to MITRE ATT&CK framework, identifying broken detection rules, addressing detection gaps, and measuring the depth of ATT&CK coverage. It enables security teams to manage detection posture across multiple SIEMs and operationalize threat intelligence. Organizations can use the platform to assess and improve their overall detection posture, with reporting capabilities for leadership and auditors. The platform aims to help security teams proactively mitigate risk by providing complete visibility and context for remediation decisions.
