Web apps, cloud environments, IP ranges, third-party integrations, and any services that are accessible online fall under this category.<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Integration is key for smooth operations. EASM\u00a0solutions\u00a0should connect with vulnerability tools, ticketing systems, and SIEM platforms to support complete workflows. When vulnerability data, asset metadata, and logs flow together, organizations achieve <a href=\"https:\/\/fidelissecurity.com\/threatgeek\/xdr-security\/fidelis-elevate-deep-visibility\/\">stronger security visibility<\/a>.<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Prioritization is further improved by using real-time threat intelligence. By\u00a0identifying\u00a0the vulnerabilities that attackers are actively exploiting, teams can improve attack surface intelligence risk reduction by concentrating on the most\u00a0important issues.<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Lastly, companies should evaluate their EASM policies on a regular basis. Modifying scanning rules, access permissions, and remediation workflows ensures the program stays in line with organizational changes as infrastructure expands or business needs change.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ab474c2 e-ecs-flex e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"ab474c2\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;ecs_container_type&quot;:&quot;flex&quot;,&quot;_ha_eqh_enable&quot;:false}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-dd269b8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"dd269b8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" id=\"easm-use-cases-and-real-world-applications\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">EASM Use Cases and Real-World Applications<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-df94fc0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"df94fc0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">EASM delivers practical value across a wide array of cybersecurity and business scenarios.\u00a0Using brand monitoring to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/fidelissecurity.com\/threatgeek\/threat-detection-response\/phishing-detection-in-minutes\/\">identify\u00a0phishing<\/a> campaigns is one of the most popular uses.
