In order to understand the magnitude of an organization's attack surface, let's walk through a real-life attack scenario and see how Attack Surface Management (ASM) could have protected the organization from getting hit with ransomware.
Our goal as cyber-defenders is to look at our organizations from the cyber-attacker’s viewpoint, reduce the attack surface, and reduce the impact of a cyber-attack. Here are seven important steps to include in your Attack Surface Management program:
Evolving your security model to align with the shifting landscape of business operations.
Organizations can reduce risk and improve security posture by focusing security efforts on what matters the most, securing your data.
Data management is such a large and complicated practice area but there are a few fundamental protections that should be in place to help prevent emergencies.

Enterprise Information Technology Leaders need to effectively operate today while planning to support a changing future.

In fact, new and future demands for technology capabilities across every area of Casino Gaming and Hospitality continue to accelerate. Perhaps the most daunting of these new and future demands will be the need to create a set of IT capabilities that can support the growth of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning applications (ML).
