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.

Teams that Benefit from this Vulnerability and Exposure Management (CTEM) Group Training

This group training is built for security and IT teams who own vulnerability management and want a continuous, risk-based exposure program. Content adapts to each cohort's roles, tools, and experience, so every batch practices the workflows it owns, from discovery to remediation.

Explore by Function/Department/Teams

Run assessments that drive real remediation.

Vulnerability teams learn to configure scanners, validate findings, and prioritize with EPSS and threat intelligence.

Workflow friction

  • Thousands of unvalidated findings
  • Patching by severity alone
  • Noisy, inconsistent scan data

How the program helps

  • Trustworthy, deduplicated scan results
  • Risk-based priority lists
  • Faster remediation cycles

Practice use cases

  • Scanner tuning labs
  • EPSS prioritization workshops
  • Remediation workflow design

Cohorts train as a cross-functional workforce, with each small group aligned on shared exposure standards.

Prerequisites: This program benefits vulnerability management staff, security engineers, and IT operations teams who own discovery, scanning, or remediation. Basic networking and security concepts help but are not required, and no prior CTEM experience is needed. Content adapts to each cohort's tools, estate, and experience.

Security Analyst to Exposure Management Lead

Tracks how practitioners progress from vulnerability awareness to running a continuous exposure program across the program's learn, practice, and apply phases.

Where this Training Fits in Your Team's learning path.

Exposure management builds on VAPT, turning point-in-time tests into a continuous program. Adding threat intelligence then helps your team prioritize the exposures attackers are most likely to use, and metrics show leaders how exposure is changing.

Run Exposure Management as a Continuous Cycle of Evidence and Remediation

Edstellar develops CTEM skills by connecting discovery, assessment, prioritization, validation, and remediation. Participants work with a simulated enterprise to map assets, interpret findings, and test risk assumptions before coordinating corrective work. A complete program review demonstrates how their technical evidence supports priorities, assigned actions, and an intelligible executive account of exposure.

  1. Step 01

    Consult

    We review security and remediation responsibilities, identifying gaps in asset visibility, scan interpretation, threat-informed prioritization, exposure validation, and the tracking of corrective actions across teams.

  2. Step 02

    Plan

    We establish CTEM foundations, discover assets and assess vulnerabilities, then connect threat-informed priorities and controlled validation with remediation workflows and a complete program review.

  3. Step 03

    Align

    We align exposure-management expertise with security and IT operations teams, confirming isolated lab targets and clarifying responsibilities for assessment, authorized validation, remediation, and reporting.

  4. Step 04

    Customize

    We adapt a simulated enterprise attack surface and vulnerability dataset to familiar environments, preserving prioritization and validation decisions without scanning or testing real organizational assets.

  5. Step 05

    Execute

    Participants map assets, assess vulnerabilities, and build tracked remediation workflows, receiving feedback on risk rationale, validation evidence, ownership, and the clarity of executive reporting.

  6. Step 06

    Evaluate

    We assess the program review for complete discovery reasoning, evidence-backed priorities, safely scoped validation, and traceable remediation measures that distinguish planned actions from verified changes.
