AMA with Brian Contos and Sallie Mae’s Steve Lodin

In my latest conversation, I had the pleasure of catching up with my good friend Steve Lodin, Vice President of Information Security at Sallie Mae. We discussed vulnerability and exposure management, and as always, Steve had some fantastic insights to share.

Many people think of exposure as just external threats, but Steve pointed out that’s only a small part of the big picture. “You want to check your exposure on all your assets,” he said. Steve mentions the importance of assessing all vulnerabilities, weaknesses, and configuration gaps when thinking about exposure in his very cloud-heavy environment.

Sevco consolidates assets, vulnerabilities, business context, and threat intel into a single pane of glass to drive faster, more effective, and more comprehensive exposure management programs. Listen in as Steve and I discuss why the determination and remediation of risk needs to look beyond current vulnerability scoring frameworks to include detailed asset data, exploit intelligence, compensating controls, and more.
