Solution brief Managed Exposure Defense: One Program for the Entire Response Loop
Key takeaways
- Insight Managed Exposure Defense delivers end-to-end vulnerability response in a single program. It unifies detection, remediation, and containment with one accountable delivery team.
- The solution reduces response time by combining five integrated capabilities into one managed service. Organizations move from exposure to protection without fragmented tools or vendors.
- It provides rapid deployment and scalable protection for organizations of any size. The program can be scoped and priced within 24 hours of first contact and supports environments from 100 assets to enterprise scale.
Business Challenge
In April 2026, Anthropic’s Project Glasswing deployed, trained, and tested a frontier AI model to find critical vulnerabilities, which surfaced thousands of previously unknown flaws across every major operating system and browser, some undetected for decades. Vendors are now racing to patch on a controlled disclosure schedule, triggering a coordinated patch wave unlike anything the industry has seen.
For most organizations, the challenge isn’t awareness — it’s capacity. AI-assisted exploit development has compressed the weaponization window from days to hours. Security teams are already stretched thin, with no dedicated patch operations function and no surge bench to draw on. Regulators expect demonstrable response to a known event. Boards are already asking questions. And the threat cannot wait for lengthy procurement cycles or disconnected vendor relationships.
Our solution
Insight Managed Exposure Defense is a bundled managed service purpose-built for this moment — combining five integrated capabilities into a single program that moves organizations from exposure to protected environment at the speed the threat demands. Rather than coordinating disconnected point tools and separate vendors, organizations get end-to-end coverage of the entire vulnerability response loop with unified accountability.
The program can be scoped and priced within 24 hours of first contact and scales from 100 managed assets to large enterprise scale without custom buildout — delivering immediate operational relief regardless of organization size.
Features & Benefits
One contract. One team. One answer.
Insight covers all five stages of the response loop with a single delivery team. No accountability gaps between vendors. No coordination overhead.
Insight is Client Zero
Our CISO is running this program inside Insight right now, against the same threat our clients face. We’re not just invested in selling it — we’re invested in making sure it works.
Scoped and priced in 24 hours
From first conversation to a protected environment without the lengthy procurement cycles the threat cannot wait for.
Scales from 100 assets to enterprise
Out-of-the-box delivery at any size — no custom buildout required, no minimum engagement complexity.
Compliance-ready by design
Aligned to major regulatory frameworks including NIST CSF 2.0, HIPAA, GLBA, NYDFS, the SHIELD Act, and SEC disclosure rules. Audit trail built in from day one.
Outcome
With Insight Managed Exposure Defense, the mindset shifts from “How do we respond?” to “It’s already handled.” Organizations gain immediate operational relief from a threat that exceeds internal capacity, a defensible posture record that satisfies regulators and boards, and the confidence that comes from knowing a single partner owns the full response.
Five stages. One Insight.
The bundle is the differentiator.
We deliver in every stage of the response loop — exposure detection, software supply-chain visibility, ops-side remediation, code-side remediation, and exploit detection and containment — on a single contract, with a unified delivery team:
See: Managed CTEM
Continuous scanning across endpoints, cloud, identity, and applications — delivering a real-time, risk-ranked exposure map. The foundation the entire response depends on.
Know: Software supply chain & OSS risk
SBOM generation, open source dependency monitoring, and vendor contractual posture reviews. Visibility into what’s inside what you run.
Cure: Managed patch
Enterprise-scale patch operations across Windows®, Linux®, hypervisors, and the database tier. Change-managed deployment with test rings, rollback, and a time-stamped audit trail.
Code: Software developer outsourcing
Surge engineering capacity for dependency upgrades, library refactors, and custom application remediation. Code-level exposure closed without freezing your product roadmap.
Contain: Managed XDR
24/7/365 detection, triage, and response from a global SOC across the U.S., UK, India, and Manila. The safety net when patches lag.
