Bitdefender today announced GravityZone Exposure Management, an advanced solution that gives organizations a comprehensive view of threat risk exposure across their internal and external attack surfaces, reveals the most impactful weaknesses, and remediates them. It consolidates findings across the entire environment into a single view, reducing complexity for lean security teams as AI significantly speeds attack cycles.
For many organizations, the challenge is not simply finding vulnerabilities but knowing which ones matter and having the resources to address them without disrupting everyday business operations.
In a global survey of 1,200 cybersecurity practitioners, the top barriers to reducing the attack surface were high overhead in maintaining hardening rules and exceptions (38%), fear of operational disruption (35.4%), and resource constraints (34.6%). Consolidation addresses that burden, and Gartner® predicts, “By 2028, at least half of the exposure management market will consist of unified exposure management platforms (UEMPs).”¹
GravityZone Exposure Management addresses those barriers as an add-on to Bitdefender GravityZone, a unified security, risk management, and compliance platform. The platform delivers advanced endpoint protection, including endpoint detection and response (EDR), extended detection and response (XDR), cloud-native security, and GravityZone PHASR (Proactive Hardening and Attack Surface Reduction), a first-to-market dynamic attack surface reduction innovation. GravityZone also provides deep security context for detections and a direct path to Bitdefender Managed Detection and Response (MDR) services.
GravityZone Exposure Management offers a simple path to discover, prioritize, and mitigate threat exposure. Once enabled, it begins identifying and ranking risk automatically, giving security teams a clear starting point and guided recommendations for remediation and continuous attack surface hardening.
Key Benefits:
- Increase Threat Visibility and Close Attack Vectors — Proactively discover unpatched operating system and third-party vulnerabilities, insecure settings, and risky user behavior on endpoints. External Attack Surface Management (EASM) monitors internet-facing assets for shadow IT, misconfigured services, and exposed subdomains. Security teams receive risk rankings, prioritization guidance, and posture improvement tracked over time.
- Trace Attack Paths to Critical Assets — Map vulnerabilities and exposures to possible routes an attacker would follow to compromise sensitive data, privileged accounts, financial, and other core business systems. Link identities to see the potential impact of a breached account, then act on the highest-risk steps first.
- Apply Dynamic Hardening to Manage Excessive Privileges — Baseline and monitor user behavior to autonomously restrict legitimate tools that living-off-the-land (LOTL) attacks abuse, such as PowerShell and Windows Management Instrumentation Command-line (WMIC). Block these attacks at the source without maintaining static hardening rules.
Cybercriminal use of AI has increased both the speed and volume of attacks, flooding security teams with more alerts than they can properly investigate. GravityZone applies a preemptive approach to critical attack surfaces, including business AI adoption, to close gaps and block threats before they reach detection and response or other defenses.
Availability
Bitdefender GravityZone Exposure Management is available now for new and existing customers on Windows, with support for additional operating systems planned. It comes as an add-on to GravityZone Business Security Enterprise (and higher) or as a standalone offer that runs alongside existing endpoint security, with no separate tool, agent, or console to staff.
