I describe my experience with visualizing attack paths and the blast radius in Microsoft Security Exposure Management in relation to preventing security compromises as somewhat preliminary. I attended a session about Defender, where they demonstrated detailed path visualizations. I am not fully there yet because, as they noted, you need to sit down to grasp and read through all the paths. I have not had time to do that. However, with the integration of an agent into Defender, I believe that the agent can assist me by managing another part, allowing me to spend more time understanding the attack path using the dashboard shown to us. I am very interested and excited to invest time into that while the agent manages other tasks for us.Microsoft Security Exposure Management's dashboards should help me gain insights into endpoint exposure, but I have not really engaged deeply with them yet. I also noticed new features that offer more detailed and simplified options, where the agent can assist in building a dashboard for visualization. I plan to spend time focusing on these new features that I learned about during Ignite. Overall, I would rate my experience with this product as an 8 out of 10.
