The presentation discusses limitations in current security tools such as VM, CSPM, CAASM, and SRS. These tools lack the ability to discover unknown assets, provide inadequate visibility into Shadow IT and unknown cloud accounts, and offer an incomplete view with infrequent scanning. They also fail to scan assets from the outside-in and struggle to deliver timely, consolidated, and up-to-date data. The gaps highlighted are related to inventory and time visibility, posing questions about comprehensive asset visibility and prioritization of current security concerns. EASM solves these gaps by providing continuous discovery of external assets from an outside perspective.
