Searchlight Cyber combines exposure and threat intelligence in new PTEM platform

Searchlight Cyber launched its PTEM platform, merging exposure management from Assetnote with dark web threat intelligence to prioritize likely-exploited exposures.

Searchlight Cyber launched its Preemptive Threat Exposure Management (PTEM) platform, unifying Searchlight Exposure (formerly Assetnote) with Searchlight Threat, which consolidates the Cerberus investigations platform and DarkIQ dark web monitoring. The platform pairs continuous attack surface discovery and exploitability validation with attacker intelligence from the open, deep and dark web to help teams prioritize the exposures most likely to be exploited. The launch follows the 2025 Assetnote acquisition and a new corporate identity, and cites a Gartner forecast that preemptive security will reach 50% of IT security spending by 2030.
