Prioritize on true cyber risk
Stop cyber risks from becoming reality with cross-stack attack path modeling, threat and vulnerability management, and AI risk assessment that understands your business
As attackers innovate, defenders are
stuck in fire fighting mode
Proactively reduce risk, harden your security posture and anticipate attacks
Evaluate in your environment today
Understand your unique risk profile
Understand your exposure like never before
The biggest risks with the smallest effort
Prepare to defend with advanced risk insights
An AI-based risk based scoring system generates unique, specific risk scoring for each business rather than general claims about patch latency or CVE risk.
Top rankings and risk baselines provide an effective, prioritized view for cyber risk discovery and allow you to address the users, devices and vulnerabilities which pose the most severe compromise risk to your business.
Continuous learning of cyber risk is fed into the detection and response capabilities of the Darktrace ActiveAI Security Platform. Quickly evaluate the potential impact to affected assets during incidents and strengthen response along your most critical attack paths.

Proactive Exposure Management: Workflow
The value of a technology depends on how effectively it is used. The recommended workflow for Darktrace / Proactive Exposure Management™ maps to the workflow set out in Gartner’s Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) structure.
Scope
Understand vulnerable entry points and assets
Darktrace provides an exposure score – a measure of accessibility and interactivity – for every asset. The most exposed devices pose natural starting or pivot points for adversaries.
Discover
Identify active risks
Proactive Exposure Management will continually assess the Impact, Damage, Weakness, Exposure and Difficulty (to compromise) associated with every asset to identify which human or technology assets are most exploitable and could lead to the biggest damage against the business.
Prioritize
Focus on the most important security issues
Top rankings show the users, devices and most damaging CVEs that are present. APTs and MITRE techniques are ranked and placed in the context of your business susceptibly. CVEs display multiple scores (severity, priority, Darktrace vulnerability) to help you decide which to target along with matching advisories that are also ranked. Each of these risks are displayed in a practical format within the attack paths.
Validate
Assess potential pathways
Attack engagements give teams the opportunity to test human risks with real phishing emails sent from internal accounts. Attack path modeling places all risks in context with associated difficulty scores validating the ease with which an attacker can use their desired technique. Darktrace may also be used to augment independent pen-testing efforts.
Mobilize
Action identified risks and communicate to broader stakeholders
Ranked advisories provide a clear opportunity for a structured patching and mitigation plan, and automated risk reporting ensures quick, written summaries of all risks facing a business. A CVE management dashboard includes the consequences of not following appropriate mobilization efforts such as the cost of patch latency.
Reveal, prioritize and remove misconfigurations
Misconfigurations are mapped to attack paths to reveal the true risk each one presents to your business, helping prioritization and remediation
Identify active risks through scanner integration or manual CVE entry
Darktrace ingests vulnerability scanner findings or manual CVE entry to identify your active technology risks.
Reveal attack paths missed by simple CVE lists
Reveals complex, multi-stage, potential attack paths across your network, AD, cloud, email accounts, OT, endpoint and the external attack surface.
Assist independent red team duties
Allows pentesters to focus and validate areas with the highest risk – or can be used at end of red teaming process to see what teams might have missed
Reveal the consequences of Shadow IT
Pairs with Darktrace /Attack Surface Management to show unknown relationships and potential attack paths between Shadow IT and approved IT assets. ‘Shadow’ users can also be exposed on attack paths by revealing those users with over-entitled access to unintentional assets.

solution brief
Stop the 38% of advanced threats that evade all other email security solutions
Stronger as part of the
Darktrace ActiveAI Security Platform
Darktrace /Proactive Exposure Management is one component of the Darktrace platform. Discover added benefits when trialling products in combination
Maximize incident preparedness
Continuous risk profiling feeds back into detection and response so users can evaluate the importance and potential impact of affected assets, create custom risk policies, and ensure firmer Autonomous Response along attack paths
Get richer attack path insights
Combining Proactive Exposure Management with Darktrace / EMAIL™ allows Darktrace to map email identities into attack paths, giving a more holistic view that no other attack path analysis vendor provides
Reduce risk, inside and out
Attack Surface Magement will scope assets that are externally facing to the business, including Shadow IT. Vulnerable assets identified will appear in attack paths and have altered exposure scores to account for their public visibility.
Inform your recovery process
Based on a deep understanding of your network, Darktrace creates tailored playbooks to ensure readiness to recover from an attack and rapidly restores your business to an operational state.
