Vulnerability Management vs. Exposure Management
About this episode
Brad Hibbert discusses the evolution from traditional vulnerability management to exposure management in cloud security.
In this episode, Brad Hibbert (COO & Chief Strategy Officer at Brinqa ) joins Ashish to explain why traditional risk-based vulnerability management (RBVM) is no longer enough in a cloud-first world . We explore the evolution from simple patch management to Exposure Management a holistic approach that sits above your security tools to connect infrastructure, code, and cloud risks to actual business impact . Brad breaks down the critical difference between a "Risk Owner" (the service owner) and a "Remediation Owner" (the team fixing the bug) and why this distinction solves the "who fixes this?" problem . This conversation covers practical steps to uplift your VM program, how AI is helping prioritize the noise , and why compliance often just "proves activity" rather than reducing real risk . Whether you're drowning in Jira tickets or trying to automate remediation, this episode provides a roadmap for modernizing your security posture Guest Socials - Brad's Linkedin Podcast Twitter…
