Asset visibility and risk management is continuously discovering every device and system on a network - including the unmanaged and unknown ones - and assessing the risk each one carries.
As IT environments grow more distributed and threats more automated, gaps in asset visibility and risk management are exactly what attackers look for first - making it one of the higher-leverage areas to get right.
The most common pattern is treating asset visibility and risk management as a one-time setup rather than an ongoing program - controls drift out of date as the environment changes, and nobody notices until something goes wrong.
Continuously, ideally - asset visibility and risk management works best as an always-on program rather than a quarterly or annual checklist item, since new risks appear between review cycles too.
