Unrationalized security stacks are not only unnecessarily costly, but they also generate more false-positive calls, needlessly taxing security staff stamina and increasing the risk of missing a critical alert.

This is at the core of what Extended Security Posture Management brings to the table.

Extended Security Posture Management is a multilayered process combining the capabilities of Attack Surface Management, Breach and Attack Simulation, Continuous Automated Red Teaming, and Purple Teaming to continuously evaluate and score the infrastructure's overall cyber resiliency.

Using the granular evaluation of each individual tool and of the security control configuration, an XSPM solution provides granular information about each solution used, the eventual overlap between two or more solutions and the remaining security gaps.

Security teams are systematically impressed by the difference in having actionable data made, both in improving the security posture and in rationalizing cybersecurity spending.

XSPM helps the security team to deal with the constant content configuration churn and leverages telemetry to help identify the gaps in security by generating up-to-date emerging threats feeds and providing additional test cases emulating TTPs that attackers would use, saving DevSocOps the time needed to develop those test cases.
