Chris Ray, Security Architect discusses with Bikash Barai co-founder of  CISO Platform & Firecompass. The current state and future of Attack Surface Management (ASM), highlighting the importance of reducing false positives and improving prioritization for security teams. The speaker envisions ASM becoming a foundational platform for better, more converged security solutions.

 

 

 

Here is the verbatim Discussion. There's a lot of these ASM players who just stop at that passive and that can be very dangerous so I think when somebody's looking for a solution looking at the false positive rate becomes very important and as you mentioned the prioritization is another like super critical area because no security team wants more alerts um so so Chris let's get to the final part of the conversation in terms of what do you think the future of ASM is like has become a shiny new thing but what's the future like I see it becoming a better version or it's um let me think of the best way to put this I see it enabling better Security Solutions you know in one way it will become the Bedrock uh or the foundation for better Security Solutions meaning convergence in the space and that's that's popular one right now uh either through merger and acquisition you know bigger vendors buying smaller vendors or through the leaders in the ASM space developing broader capabilities and saying you know we can't uh we're not doing a great job.
