Traditional vulnerability management practices weren’t designed for the volume or variety of assets and exposures you face today. As a result, you may be blind to many threats. Ivanti solves this issue by providing vital visibility of your assets and exposures, plus risk-based prioritisation, so you can approach remediation strategically.
Traditional vulnerability management practices look only at the traditional perimeter — servers and endpoints — and Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs). Organisations overlook many other attack vectors as a result, effectively leaving the front door open for cyber threats.
Achieve a fuller picture of the assets and exposures in your environment with Ivanti.
The Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) is deemed the standard for prioritising remediation efforts. But the CVSS only indicates how easily a vulnerability could be exploited, not whether it actually has been. This causes teams to waste resources on exposures that pose little risk, while ignoring many that do.
Instead, approach prioritisation strategically by accounting for real-world risk with Vulnerability Risk Rating (VRR) scores for every exposure, and Ivanti RS³ scores for every asset and the overall organisation. These risk-based scores show which exposures must be addressed immediately to prevent exploitation, along with any resulting downtime, reputational damage or other difficulties.
Ivanti doesn’t just arm you with intelligence; we help you take tangible steps to reduce risk by fixing critical exposures.
By taking a proactive approach to security with Ivanti, you can eliminate your highest-risk exposures before they’re exploited to launch a cyber attack.
Know the full scope of what you need to protect by detecting all endpoints connecting to your network — including new and unknown devices — plus external-facing assets that often go overlooked.
Focus remediation efforts where they’re most needed with risk scores automatically assigned to every exposure and asset. Improve cybersecurity posture by measuring the impact of your efforts via an organisation-wide risk score.
Keep your risk level in line with your risk appetite by patching critical Windows, macOS, Linux and third-party app exposures. You can also employ IT automation bots to find and resolve device issues and vulnerabilities proactively.
Our exposure management solution combines attack surface management, risk-based vulnerability management and exposure remediation capabilities to empower you to proactively reduce security risk.

Exposure management is a proactive cybersecurity practice for selectively identifying, assessing and mitigating exposures across an organization's digital attack surface. The ultimate goal is to maintain actual exposures at an acceptable risk level.
Exposure management is more holistic, leveraging risk-based prioritization of exposures and validation of identified, prioritized exposures to deliver a comprehensive view of an organization's entire digital attack surface.

Exposure management requires a multi-layered approach that puts a variety of tools and techniques to work. The specific ones an organization uses will depend on its size, industry and risk tolerance.
Exposure assessment tools:
Exposure validation platforms:
Exposure management practices are commonly guided by continuous threat exposure management (CTEM) programs. As defined in the 2023 Gartner® Implement a Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) Program report as follows:
“Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) program is a set of processes and capabilities that allow enterprises to continually and consistently evaluate the accessibility, exposure and exploitability of an enterprise’s digital and physical assets.
At any stage of maturity, a CTEM cycle must include five steps to be completed: scoping, discovery, prioritization, validation and mobilization.”
Many vendors are aligning their exposure management tools to CTEM, offering specific modules for each stage of the process. Refer to Ivanti’s exposure management glossary for a more thorough answer to this question.
