Automate the CTEM Lifecycle With PlexTrac
What is Scoping
Scoping sets the foundation for your CTEM program by defining which assets should be evaluated for threat exposure and how they should be prioritized based on the company’s business objectives and potential risk impact.
How PlexTrac helps
Establish clear asset ownership and manage all assets within PlexTrac for comprehensive attack surface visibility. Use this centralized view to collaborate across teams and define the testing scope based on business priorities and risk. Once the scope is established, leverage PlexTrac’s scheduling feature enables engagement management to support a continuous cadence of continuous testing
What is Discovery
Discovery is where organizations identify potential exposures within the systems and assets that are part of the scope. It involves both manual testing and automated tools to build an up-to-date view of the organization’s threat landscape to lay the groundwork for effective prioritization and validation.
How PlexTrac helps
Conduct manual testing, such as pentests, repeatable test plans, adversary emulation, or other offensive assessments, directly within PlexTrac. Consolidate these results with data from integrated discovery tools, which are automatically deduplicated to reduce noise. This enables continuous monitoring of assets and exposures within the defined scope.
What is Prioritization
CTEM is not about remediating every exposure, but about prioritizing those that pose the greatest business risk and are most likely to be exploited. Effective prioritization must consider a combination of urgency, severity, compensating controls, risk appetite and overall potential impact to the organization. This ensures that resources are focused on exposures that matter most to the business.
How PlexTrac helps
Automate contextual, risk-based prioritization with fully configurable scoring equations that enrich exposures with a risk score based on potential business impact. This enables teams to identify the highest impact threats, align on treatment plans, and track remediation efforts.
What is Validation
Validation tests how identified exposures could be exploited by attackers and how detection and response controls perform in real-world scenarios. It often involves manual assessments like penetration tests and red team exercises to evaluate likely attack success, potential business impact, and response readiness. Effective validation removes uncertainty so teams can focus on remediating exposures with proven adversarial impact.
How PlexTrac helps
Continuously validate the prioritized exposures that are scored as most critical by using automated retesting and validation workflows, ensure your security team stays focused on the highest-impact risks.
What is Mobilization
Mobilization is the process of organizing and enabling teams to act on CTEM findings by reducing friction throughout the remediation orchestration workflows. It emphasizes automation, clear communication channels, and cross-functional collaboration to reduce friction and accelerate risk reduction.
How PlexTrac helps
Mature remediation workflows by assigning, tracking, and collaborating on CTEM findings directly in PlexTrac. Integrate with ticketing systems to eliminate manual steps and enable bi-directional updates between systems that streamline collaboration. Leverage automation to reduce friction and accelerate resolution of high-priority exposures.
