Common use cases for TypeDB in Cybersecurity include:

### Attack Surface Management (ASM)

Map and reduce an attack surface whose size and complexity is growing as a result of the cloud, the Internet of Things (IoT) and hybrid work models.

### Threat Detection and Response (TDR)

Reduce exposure time by identifying threats via signature and behavior detection and automating remediation, even advanced persistent attacks and evasive threats.

### Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI)

Aggregate information on indicators of compromise and the tactics, techniques and procedures used in cyberattacks, even as attackers continue to evolve them.

### Identity and Access Management (IAM)

Protect sensitive information and ensure compliance with data privacy laws by restricting access to resources and applications, whether by humans or machines.
