Bitsight SPM launched to connect cyber risk with business outcomes as pressure to prove resilience grows


Cyber risk intelligence company Bitsight announced Bitsight Security Posture Management (SPM), designed to help organizations measure, improve, and demonstrate cyber resilience. Powered by Bitsight’s proprietary cyber risk data and external exposure intelligence, Bitsight SPM combines threat intelligence, business context, control governance, and benchmarking. The result is a more complete view of enterprise risk, stronger resilience over time, and a clearer way to communicate cybersecurity effectiveness in business terms.

As AI-enabled attacks accelerate and attack surfaces expand, security leaders are under growing pressure to prove their programs are reducing real-world risk. Yet most posture tools stop at visibility, leaving teams to focus on what is easiest to find rather than what is most likely to be exploited.

Bitsight SPM uses AI-driven asset mapping to entities and subsidiaries, vulnerability prioritization, and remediation guidance to help organizations identify and prioritize the assets, exposures, and findings most likely to be exploited. With global benchmarking against any company or peer group in the world, organizations can also demonstrate measurable progress in terms business stakeholders understand.

“The challenge isn’t finding issues — it’s knowing which ones actually put the business at risk,” said Paulo Moniz, Cyber Security & Risk Senior Director at EDP. “Bitsight gives us a continuous, threat-informed view of our security posture, so we can prioritize what attackers are most likely to exploit and prove that our controls are reducing real-world risk. With AI increasing the pace of change every day, organizations need to shift from reactive remediation to measurable resilience.”

“Boards, regulators, and insurers are now asking risk leaders a fundamental, but increasingly difficult question: Are we prepared for what’s next?” said Greg Keshian, Chief Product Officer, Bitsight. “Answering it requires proof — clear evidence that exposure is being reduced, that defenses are adapting to an evolving threat landscape, and that security investments are driving measurable improvement. Bitsight Security Posture Management brings together exposure intelligence, threat context, and AI-driven prioritization to give organizations a defensible way to measure progress and demonstrate resilience.”

Bitsight SPM helps organizations prioritize what attackers are most likely to exploit by using deep contextual threat and exposure intelligence tailored to the enterprise, industry, and geography, enabling teams to focus on the exposures most likely to be weaponized, reduce real-world breach risk, and direct security investments toward the issues that matter most. 

It provides continuous visibility across the extended attack surface through ongoing asset discovery across cloud, SaaS, subsidiaries, third parties, and emerging AI exposures, giving leaders a real-time view of enterprise risk while enabling prioritization based on business context to reduce blind spots and improve security posture more quickly. 

The Bitsight SPM platform also helps accelerate remediation while strengthening compliance by leveraging AI to enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of common workflows, including framework mapping, remediation guidance, and workflow integrations such as Jira and ServiceNow, which reduce manual overhead, shorten time to remediate, and align security operations with governance and regulatory requirements. 

In addition, it enables organizations to demonstrate measurable risk reduction over time through continuous posture tracking, benchmarking, and control validation, providing defensible evidence that security investments are reducing risk and strengthening organizational resilience while making technical findings easier for executives, boards, and other non-technical stakeholders to understand by showing how the organization compares to peers, industries, and other relevant companies over time.
