Industry Applications
Finance & Insurance
Financial institutions handle highly sensitive data and face significant regulatory scrutiny, making proactive identification and mitigation of external attack vectors critical for maintaining trust and compliance.
Healthcare & Life Sciences
Healthcare organizations must protect patient data (PHI) under strict regulations like HIPAA, requiring robust security measures to prevent breaches originating from external-facing systems.
Legal & Professional Services
Law firms and professional services handle confidential client information, necessitating strong external security to prevent data theft and maintain client confidentiality and regulatory adherence.
Manufacturing & Industrial
Industrial control systems and operational technology (OT) are increasingly connected to the internet, making their external attack surface a prime target for disruption or data exfiltration, requiring diligent monitoring.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is External Attack Surface Management (EASM)?
External Attack Surface Management (EASM) is a security practice focused on discovering, monitoring, and assessing an organization's internet-facing digital assets. Its goal is to identify and mitigate potential vulnerabilities that attackers could exploit from outside the network perimeter.
How does Bitdefender GravityZone EASM differ from internal vulnerability scanning?
Internal vulnerability scanning focuses on threats within your network. EASM specifically targets your organization's external-facing assets, providing visibility into what attackers see from the internet, including shadow IT and misconfigurations that internal scans might miss.
Can this service help with compliance requirements?
Yes, by providing continuous visibility and helping to identify and remediate external vulnerabilities, EASM supports compliance efforts related to data protection, risk management, and maintaining a secure digital presence.
