A study conducted by Enterprise Strategy Group in partnership with Tenable shows that many organizations do not have a dedicated vulnerability or exposure management team, resulting in shared responsibility across IT, cloud, and SOC teams. This distribution of tasks creates friction because these teams have differing priorities and key performance indicators (KPIs). For instance, IT teams focus on operational uptime while security teams prioritize risk reduction, leading to potential delays in addressing urgent threats.
The lack of collaboration and poor communication often exacerbates these issues, hindering effective threat response and risk management. Silos in security tools and processes prevent cohesive action across teams, creating an environment where exposure may increase due to delays in remediation efforts. Organizations need to rethink their management strategies and could benefit from unifying their approach to exposure management in order to enhance efficiency and reduce risk exposure.
