Misconfiguration Management

What is Misconfiguration Management?

Misconfiguration management is the process of identifying and correcting insecure settings or permissions in systems, applications, and cloud environments.

Why it matters
Misconfigurations are among the most common causes of breaches. A single exposed storage bucket or open port can put critical data at risk.

How it works
Organizations use continuous scanning and policy-based checks to detect configuration errors against benchmarks like Center for Internet Security (CIS) Controls or NIST frameworks.

How Brinqa helps
Brinqa ingests misconfiguration data from multiple security tools and correlates it with vulnerability and asset context to prioritize remediation based on business impact. See how Brinqa converts disparate security data into unified exposure management.
