“We are having more meaningful conversations with IT operations because we are able to lay out what vulnerabilities that we should be addressing, and we get their buy-in. We may show them that we don’t have compensating controls in certain areas, so new priorities are needed.”

“I measure risk reduction by how long I can sleep. I sleep better now.”

“A huge benefit for me right now is that there’s no competition between IT security and IT operations anymore. IT operations uses XM Cyber proactive now. The people responsible for servers, for example, have set up some of their own scenarios and solve problems better than in the past. People see that their actions make their responsible area more secure. Things are much better now.”

“Every company in the world has too many vulnerabilities to manage, and you get this alert fatigue, so you don't even know where to start. In some areas, we have 200,000 patches in the queue. But with XM Cyber, we see the most vulnerable points.”

"A pen tester is looking at certain aspects at a point in time that become stale about 30 days later, while XM Cyber is all-encompassing and continues to provide findings year-round.”

“Since scenarios are run constantly, we’re able to go back and ensure that the remediation effort was accomplished successfully. It is not uncommon to catch patches that weren’t done right.”

"Microsoft announced a large vulnerability that affected domain controllers and servers, we were able with XM Cyber's help to identify that vulnerability weeks before Microsoft announced that. We were able to patch our environment and get our environment squared up."

"We were living in an imaginary feeling of security, but the reality of existing attack paths was shocking, and the findings were really impressive! "
"They have been as responsive now ... as they were when they were trying to make the sale... We’re used to vendors being right there in the sales cycle and then you’re kind of on your own until you call them. They are very good about proactively reaching out."

"Seeing the attack path before the attackers can really use it makes me speechless."

"XM Cyber is really on the horizon of what the next hot technology is for our customers, for CISOs, and the challenge with ransomware type attacks, and not understanding their actual attack surface. My previous couple roles in security brushed up on this space, but they never really had technology that could address it. And that’s what was so appealing about XM Cyber."
"This is my preferred toy."
"We use the product to show our operational team the reason for the remediations we need and what is the real impact on our security."

"This is why we like XM Cyber, even when you think you fixed an issue, XM will show you if the risk still exists."
