Risk Posture

Risk posture is the current state of an organization's or vendor's cybersecurity controls, vulnerabilities, and exposures at a given point in time. It is dynamic, changing as new vulnerabilities emerge, patches are applied, infrastructure evolves, and the threat landscape shifts. Continuous monitoring is required to maintain an accurate view.
