Security teams now confidently escalate what’s exposed while deprioritizing assets not at risk
Seemplicity, the agentic Exposure Action Platform that closes the gap between findings and fixing, announced EDR Compensating Controls Awareness, a capability that embeds real-time endpoint detection and response (EDR) telemetry directly into exposure management workflows so security teams can act immediately on actual risk.

AI-powered tools are accelerating the speed at which vulnerabilities get weaponized, making severity scores less-relevant. Security teams are buried in backlogs, chasing vulnerabilities that may never be exploited while high-risk exposures go unaddressed. At the same time, they’re under pressure to do more with the tools they already have.
Seemplicity pulls live configuration data from EDR tools like CrowdStrike and Microsoft Defender to evaluate whether vulnerabilities are actually blocked on each asset with transparent reasoning behind every decision, so teams know exactly why something was escalated or deprioritized.
“Knowing a vulnerability exists isn’t enough,” said Ravid Circus, co-founder and Chief Product Officer at Seemplicity. “Teams need to know whether their controls can actually stop a threat on each specific asset, and act accordingly by escalating what’s exposed and deprioritizing what’s protected. That’s what we’ve built: real-time, explainable risk context that gets security and engineering aligned around what truly matters.”
What’s New
- Asset-Level EDR Telemetry Ingestion: Pulls live protection data directly from CrowdStrike and Microsoft Defender environments to evaluate active protections on individual assets.
- Technique-Based Mitigation Analysis: Maps vulnerabilities from CVE to CWE to assess whether endpoint controls block the relevant attack paths.
- Transparent Reasoning Trails: Shows exactly how AI-driven mitigation decisions are determined, so teams can trust and explain the prioritization.
- Integrated Workflow Visibility: Surfaces exposure gaps and EDR hygiene issues directly into findings tables, dashboards, and remediation workflows.
- Conversational AI Assistant: Have a question about your EDR protections? Ask Seema, our built-in AI assistant, to help you understand coverage, gaps, and next steps instantly.
This announcement builds on Seemplicity’s recent momentum expanding its agentic Exposure Action Platform, following the launch of its AI Agents for Exposure Management and Seema, its conversational AI assistant for exposure intelligence.
