The cyber attack surface just keeps growing to the point that it seems endless. Protecting it all is impossible. Is there anything that can be done to reduce that attack surface and limit your exposure?

Check out this post for the discussion that are the basis of our conversation on this week’s episode co-hosted by me, David Spark (@dspark), the producer of CISO Series, and Steve Zalewski. Our sponsored guest is Jonathan Trull (@jonathantrull), CISO, Qualys.

• Is there anything that can be done to reduce that attack surface and limit your exposure?

• And what value does it have in comparison to other popular theories such as zero trust and defense in depth?
• Is everything just another form of exposure management?
