Asset visibility remains a persistent challenges in cybersecurity. Despite working on this challenge for decades, CISOs continue to struggle with knowing what assets exist in their environments, where they're located, and what risks they present.

The problem has only intensified with dynamic cloud resources spinning up and down in seconds, APIs proliferating across environments, and third-party integrations creating complex dependency chain. Traditional scanning tools simply can't keep pace.

In this episode, Franz Fiorim, Field CTO at Trend Micro, explains how their Cyber Risk Exposure Management (CREME) solution addresses these challenges through continuous asset discovery and risk prioritization across the entire attack surface.

Joining him are Krista Arndt, Associate CISO at St. Luke's University Health Network, and Brett Conlon, CISO at American Century Investments.

They discuss how CREME consolidates external attack surface management, cloud security posture management, and vulnerability remediation into a unified platform that discovers hidden assets through multiple methods including agentless cloud integrations, network discovery sensors, and third-party API connections.

Reduce cost, complexity, and tool sprawl by consolidating critical security and risk disciplines like External Attack Surface Management (EASM), Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM), Vulnerability Risk Management (VRM), Identity Security Posture, Security Awareness and more into one cyber risk exposure management solution. CREM simplifies security and business operations to enable faster, more strategic risk reduction by replacing fragmented point solutions across these domains.
