From Point-in-Time Testing to Continuous Exposure Management

For years, point-in-time penetration testing has been the standard for measuring risk. But today’s dynamic environments require continuous exposure management to stay ahead.

But there’s a limitation: point-in-time only shows you where you stood once. Environments evolve daily. A single misconfigured identity integration, new cloud bucket, or vendor connection introduced weeks after a test can open the door to compromise.

Why Continuous Exposure Management Matters

At OSec, we built Incenter to close this gap. Point-in-time testing remains essential, but organizations also need continuous exposure management to keep up with today’s dynamic environments.

Here’s what that looks like in practice:

  • Always-on visibility
    Incenter continuously monitors exposures across identity, cloud, and third-party connections. Whether it’s a misconfigured S3 bucket or an expired SSL certificate, issues are surfaced as they emerge — not months later.
  • Human-verified prioritization
    Our analysts validate which exposures actually matter in your business context. Instead of drowning in CVEs, you see the handful of issues that demand action this week.
  • Frictionless fit
    Incenter integrates with existing workflows (SIEM, SOAR, ticketing), so your team isn’t stuck juggling another siloed tool.

Proof in Practice

Organizations across industries face the same challenge: exposures don’t wait for the next scheduled test.

With Incenter, teams are able to:

  • Shrink exposure windows by detecting and closing misconfigurations soon after they appear — not months later.
  • Accelerate remediation by focusing only on issues that matter in their business context, instead of chasing every alert.
  • Prevent supply chain risk by identifying risky third-party connections and integrations before they become incidents.

Across sectors like finance, healthcare, and manufacturing, security leaders consistently tell us that continuous validation helps them act faster and with more confidence than relying on point-in-time testing alone.

Right-Sized for Your Team

Continuous exposure management isn’t just for Fortune 500s. Incenter was designed for teams with limited security staff who can’t afford to spend weeks chasing false positives. Whether you’re a lean IT shop or a large enterprise, the goal is the same: close exposures before they become incidents.

Clear Model, No Surprises

We know cost and complexity are top of mind. That’s why Incenter is offered as a transparent subscription model — no per-user licensing tricks, no hidden fees. Just continuous protection that fits into your existing workflows.

Point-in-Time and Continuous: Better Together

Point-in-time testing tells you where you stood then.
Incenter tells you where you stand now — and helps you close exposures before they linger past 90 days.

Together, they deliver both the depth of simulated attack and the breadth of real-time visibility.
