There is a corporate mandate to implement AI enablement programs. In cybersecurity, integrating AI chatbots into dashboards is table stakes. The industry, and the organizations it serves, must evolve to adopt agentic AI.

But true autonomy isn’t just about moving faster – it’s about changing the goalpost entirely. The ultimate objective is Shift Zero: eliminating vulnerability backlogs entirely and preventing exposure at the source. To achieve this, the best place to begin is the end.

Continuous threat exposure management (CTEM) is a framework to discover and remediate threats and exposures. The final step of this framework, mobilization, is the operational endpoint. Until now, this has remained a time-consuming manual process.

Automation has historically been focused on discovery, prioritization, and validation. By inverting the traditional CTEM framework to focus on automating remediation, organizations can close the loop on exposure management.

The final frontier for CTEM
