Mandiant Advantage was a security validation solution used to test the efficacy of security controls with authentic, relevant and active attacks. Mandiant was acquired by Google in late 2022, and since, the product line has been discontinued.
It's a decent system if you're a pure IT shop and want to become ITIL-aligned. It forces everyone into an ITIL mentality - service level agreements, change management, and asset tracking. It's very rote, for better and for worse. It's not appropriate at all as a customer-facing or non-IT facing self-service tool. You will never get your end users to really understand how to use the interface.

Mandiant Advantage Security Validation, designed by Mandiant company, can automate a testing program to give us authetic and real world data on how our security controls are effectively working / performing. This solution provides trusted evidence on how well our security controls work against threats targeting our organization. This enables security teams to emulate real attack behaviors against security controls authentically throughout the attack lifecycle and the entire security stack.

Mandiant ASM combines sources of information such, as assets through the internet cloud resources and suppliers from third parties. This comprehensive approach provides organizations with an understanding of their external attack surface.
With scanning Mandiant ASM identifies threats and vulnerabilities present on the external attack surface and promptly notifies users. Whenever a new threat or vulnerability is detected an alert is generated to empower enterprises to take action in mitigating the risks.
Mandiant ASM assesses risks based on their likelihood of exploitation impact on organizations and severity. This prioritization enables organizations to focus their efforts, on addressing the risks effectively.

We have to hire 2 full-time 3rd-party consultants to run this application. That tells me it's not a very IT-friendly, vendor-supported application. Compare that with, say, SolarWinds, which is much easier for regular IT staff to customize without sacrificing features and capability. Sure, we have to bring in Loop1 to consult for us when we need to do a major SolarWinds config change or need a really unusual custom query built, but we never need more than 10 hours of consulting per month.

I did not select CA. If it were up to me, I would migrate us to ServiceNow. The user interface on ServiceNow is 100% more modern and 200% more user friendly. With ServiceNow, the front page for end users makes it clear: one button that says "Ask for something" and one button that says "Report a problem". That's what our end users need. The biggest problem we have in our organization is that our end users don't report issues to the Help Desk often enough and rarely ask for things through the Help Desk. A clean, simple self-service option like this would open up a world of new information for our customer service team.

It was integral during our large IT consolidation 10 years ago in merging 10 different IT departments into one by converging on one ticketing system for all IT issues.
Its lack of user-friendliness has gated us from being able to deploy a true self-service IT help desk.

Automation plays a role in saving time by streamlining operations related to attack surface management. These include automated asset discovery, vulnerability scanning and continuous monitoring of threat intelligence. As a result security teams can allocate their efforts towards projects such as security planning and incident response.
ASM provides a view of the external attack surface, for businesses encompassing internet facing assets, cloud resources and third party vendors. This enhances the understanding of assets enabling organizations to identify and prioritize risks effectively and make decisions on security investments
One notable advantage is cost savings. By eliminating the need to purchase and maintain security tools ASM becomes a solution for enterprises. It can replace products, like asset discovery tools, vulnerability management tools and threat intelligence feeds with its capabilities.
