Unknown And Unsecured: The Risks Of Poor Asset Visibility
HelpNet Security, Thursday, February 20th, 2025
In this Help Net Security interview, Juliette Hudson, CTO of CybaVerse, discusses why asset visibility remains a critical cybersecurity challenge. She explains how to maintain security without slowing down operations, shares ways to improve visibility in OT environments, and explains how AI can be both a solution and a challenge.
Hudson also provides actionable advice for security leaders seeking to enhance their organization's security posture.
Why is asset visibility still such a critical issue?
You can't protect what you can't see. If organizations don't have visibility across all their assets, then they can't secure their entire estate.
Asset visibility remains a critical issue because organizations often lack a real-time, unified view of their IT, OT, and cloud environments.
Shadow IT, unmanaged endpoints, remote work and third-party integrations create blind spot which increases attack vectors. Without complete visibility, security teams struggle to detect and respond to threats effectively, leaving organizations vulnerable to breaches and compromises.
Good visibility across enterprise assets is no longer just a nice to have, it's a necessity to survive in the digital world.
