Attack Surface Management

Continuous discovery and monitoring of external attack surface

Attack Surface Management continuously discovers, inventories, and monitors all externally-facing assets across your clients' environments. Shadow IT, forgotten subdomains, exposed services, and misconfigured cloud resources are identified automatically.

The AI maps the complete external attack surface for each client, comparing it against known assets to identify unexpected exposures. Risk scoring considers each asset's vulnerability status, data sensitivity, and exposure level to prioritize remediation.

Continuous monitoring ensures that new exposures are detected within hours of appearing — whether from a developer spinning up a cloud instance, a DNS change creating a new subdomain, or a firewall rule modification exposing a service.

How It Works

1

Discover

Automated scanning discovers all externally-facing assets, domains, and services.

2

Inventory

Discovered assets are mapped against known asset inventories to identify shadow IT.

3

Assess

Each asset is risk-scored based on vulnerabilities, exposure, and data sensitivity.

4

Monitor

Continuous monitoring detects new exposures and configuration changes.
