Predictive Threat Exposure Management (PTEM) - Dataminr

Predictive & Risk Quantified Continuous Threat Exposure Management

Move beyond exposure guesswork—prove control gaps, quantify financial risk, and drive real, risk-prioritized remediation.

Continuous Threat Exposure Management based on Cyber Risk Quantification

Most exposure tools look backwards—periodic scans, static scores, assumed controls. Dataminr PTEM looks ahead, dynamically identifying exposures by exploitability, validating compensating controls, and quantifying financial risk. Now teams fix what matters first, not patching yesterday’s posture.

Live Telemetry

Continuously Monitor Control Effectiveness

Live telemetry measures whether controls are enforced and functioning on all assets in your environment. Gaps are detected as they occur — not at next audit.

Predictive Intelligence

Predict Where Attackers Will Strike

Fuses threat intelligence with control effectiveness to predict which exposures attackers are most likely to operationalize. Act early — before threats translate into incidents.

Financial Impact

Quantify Exposure in Dollars — Not Severity Scores

Not all exposures carry equal business consequence. Link control posture, asset exposure, and attacker behavior to probable financial loss — calibrated against 20+ years of cyber loss data.

Core Platform Capabilities

Two capabilities close the gap between attacker activity, defense performance, and business loss — the gap most security budgets exist to address.

CAPABILITY

Threat Intelligence
Detection from 1M+ sources across 150 languages identifies emerging threats — exploit activity, attacker behavior, targeting signals — that inform which exposures are most likely to be exploited next.

CAPABILITY

Continuous Control Monitoring with Risk Quantification
Validates control effectiveness using live telemetry and translates exposure into financial risk. Ranks CVEs by dollars at risk, maps ATT&CK behaviors to financial value, and surfaces ‘next best fix’ guidance.

STEP 1

Ingest Telemetry and Intelligence
Live telemetry from endpoint, network, identity, and cloud controls is ingested continuously alongside real-time threat intelligence — establishing what is deployed, enforced, and at risk.

STEP 2

Validate Control Effectiveness
Control telemetry validates whether defenses are actually enforced and functioning. When controls drift or fail, the system surfaces impacted assets immediately — no periodic scans required.

STEP 3

Quantify Exposure in Dollars
Asset exposure, attacker behavior, and control effectiveness are correlated through financial models built on 20+ years of cyber loss data. Risk recalculates as conditions change.

STEP 4

Prioritize by Risk Reduction
Evidence-backed Observations identify which control gaps matter most. ‘Next best fix’ guidance shows teams which specific actions produce the greatest reduction in expected financial loss.

Core Features

Continuous Controls Monitoring
Measures whether controls are working using live telemetry — no manual inputs. Turns CTEM from a periodic exercise into continuous, evidence-backed infrastructure.

Evidence-Backed Control Gaps
Produces Findings: control gaps tied to specific assets, mapped to attacker behavior, and prioritized by financial impact — with ‘next best fix’ guidance attached.

Cyber Risk Quantification (CRQ)
Ground cyber risk decisions in defensible financial data. Models calibrated on 20+ years of historical cyber loss data and validated by some of the world’s largest organizations — accurate, explainable, and audit-ready.

ATT&CK-Aligned Financial Modeling
Quantifies risk at the technique level, mapping ATT&CK behaviors to financial value — so teams prioritize based on real-world attacker behavior and business impact.

CVEs Ranked by Financial Impact
Links vulnerabilities to affected assets and ranks them by dollars at risk, factoring in exploitability and compensating controls. Not CVSS — actual financial exposure.

Risk Ticker from Board to Byte
Real-time visibility into what’s protected, what’s exposed, and what it costs.

FAQS

How does PTEM validate and monitor control effectiveness continuously?
Most CTEM tools rely on periodic scans or manual attestations. PTEM continuously measures whether controls are enforced and functioning using live telemetry. When controls drift or fail, the system surfaces impacted assets and prioritizes fixes by financial impact.

Why does financial quantification matter for proactive security?
Prediction without quantification creates awareness, not action. PTEM evaluates forecasted threats in financial terms so organizations proactively mitigate the exposures most likely to cause material loss.

How is PTEM different from CVSS-driven vulnerability prioritization?
CVSS ranks severity by technical characteristics — ignoring compensating controls, real exposure, and business context. PTEM ranks by dollars at risk, factoring in exploitability, control effectiveness, and asset criticality.

Can PTEM prove security investments are reducing risk?
Yes. PTEM measures how remediation actions change expected loss over time — not just posture metrics. As controls are strengthened, risk recalculates automatically, showing measurable reduction in expected financial loss.
