Arctic Wolf Aurora Supports CTEM to Better Manage Exposures

Traditional approaches to managing vulnerabilities are no longer enough to mitigate fast-changing cyber risk, according to Arctic Wolf. The company recommends continuous threat exposure management (CTEM), supported by dynamic vulnerability management and attack surface management. This approach is necessary because attackers are becoming much quicker to exploit vulnerabilities, with a projected time to exploit of one hour by 2027.

Arctic Wolf’s Aurora Vulnerability Management and Aurora Attack Surface Management are designed to support CTEM. Aurora Vulnerability Management provides a comprehensive view of assets and their vulnerabilities, helping organisations to prioritise remediation faster. Aurora Attack Surface Management assesses known, unknown, and unmanaged assets, and provides visibility of exposures, gaps, CVEs, and misconfigurations.

Using both Aurora Vulnerability Management and Aurora Attack Surface Management together can help create a more continuous path from visibility to prioritisation to remediation. This approach has been shown to reduce instances of misconfiguration and missing endpoint security by 43%, vulnerability coverage gaps by 40%, and end of life exposure by 45%.
