What does risk appetite mean?
Defining your risk appetite – the level of risk your organization is willing to accept – is one of the most important steps to adopting an exposure management strategy. If your risk posture’s out of line with your risk appetite, it’s time to take action.
Ivanti’s Chris Goettl breaks down defining your risk appetite and how it helps you make informed decisions about remediating vulnerabilities.

The concept of exposure management is emerging as a transformative force in cybersecurity. Unlike conventional methods that often view risk in isolation, exposure management encourages a contextual understanding of threats, situating them within a broader framework of business objectives. This shift is not merely a change in perspective; it’s a foundational reimagining of how businesses approach security.
The threats facing organizations today will only continue to grow in number and complexity, demanding commensurate growth in how organizations conceive of cyber risk. No longer can security be siloed within the IT department. Instead, it must be a shared responsibility, with every aspect of the business playing a role in identifying, mitigating and managing risk. This collaborative approach enhances an organization's resilience and serves to foster innovation and drive competitive advantage.
The continued emergence of exposure management has the potential to fundamentally alter the field of cybersecurity and how it’s viewed at a business level. We believe the following five projections are not only possible but likely outcomes of that emergence.
