Shutting Down Identity Attack Paths With Continuous Exposure Management

Excessive permissions are one of the most exploited weaknesses in enterprise security — and AI-powered attackers are making them dangerous faster than ever. In this Techstrong TV interview, XM Cyber Director of Product Marketing Alex Gardner joins Alan Shimel to walk through XM Cyber’s newly announced enhancements to its Continuous Exposure Management platform: Active Directory Excessive Permissions and Cloud Infrastructure Entitlement Management (CIEM). Alex explains how XM Cyber validates attack paths across hybrid environments, ties identity risk to real exploitability, and helps security and IAM teams enforce least privilege without breaking business processes. The conversation also covers why defenders must move from human-scale response to machine-scale remediation in the AI era.
