Episode 42 of Cybersecurity Business with Fexingo dives into Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) — the security framework that Gartner predicts will reduce attack surface exploitation by two-thirds by 2027. Lucas and Luna break down how companies like a mid-sized financial services firm used CTEM to cut their exposure window from 90 days to under 72 hours, without buying a single new tool. They explain the five-phase cycle: scoping, discovery, prioritization, mobilization, and measurement. The conversation covers why traditional vulnerability management is failing — 12 million new CVEs in 2025 alone — and how CTEM shifts focus from patching everything to addressing the 3% of exposures that actually matter. Lucas shares how one CISO used a simple business impact score to get board buy-in, and Luna questions whether CTEM is just a rebrand of risk-based vulnerability management. The episode closes with a reflection on how security teams can start small: one critical asset, one business process, one quarter.
