Program Overview: What is Vulnerability and Exposure Management (CTEM)?
Vulnerability & Exposure Management (CTEM) is a 28-hour instructor-led program for security engineers, SOC analysts, and vulnerability management teams. It covers CTEM foundations, asset discovery with attack surface mapping, vulnerability scanning labs, risk-based prioritization with threat intelligence, and exposure validation through breach simulation. Participants learn to run exposure management as a continuous program rather than a periodic scan.
Training is hands-on: learners discover assets, map attack surfaces, run vulnerability scans, and prioritize findings with threat intelligence feeds. Guided labs alternate with independent work while the instructor reviews scan configurations, prioritization logic, and validation results in real time. Coaching centers on judgment: telling a truly exploitable exposure from scanner noise and proving it with breach simulation. A 5-hour capstone closes the program as each learner builds a continuous exposure management program covering discovery, prioritization, validation, and remediation orchestration.
Security teams drown in scanner output while attackers walk through the exposures that actually matter: unpatched internet-facing assets nobody inventories. This program teaches teams to stop counting vulnerabilities and start managing exposure, prioritizing by real exploitability and validating with simulation. The shift is from patching everything to proving what is truly at risk and fixing that first.
The capstone continuous exposure management program is the artifact that matters: an asset discovery routine, an attack surface map, a threat-intel-driven prioritization model, and a remediation orchestration workflow their team can operate weekly. Learners leave the room with exposure management running as a habit, not a report, and a program design their leadership can fund with confidence.
Seven modules and 28 hours: CTEM foundations, asset discovery, vulnerability scanning, risk-based prioritization, breach simulation, and remediation orchestration. Every module pairs concepts with a guided lab, so each technique is practiced. It closes with a capstone program simulation the team designs, runs, and presents.
Delivery is hybrid across virtual and onsite sessions, scheduled around your calendar. Cohorts train as one group or split into batches, with session materials and lab guides included for every participant.
