Frequently Asked Questions
What is External Attack Surface Management (EASM)?
EASM is a security practice focused on discovering, monitoring, and managing an organization's external-facing digital assets and potential vulnerabilities. It aims to provide visibility into what an attacker can see and exploit from outside the network perimeter.
How does Bitdefender GravityZone EASM differ from internal vulnerability scanning?
Internal vulnerability scanning focuses on assets within your network. EASM focuses exclusively on your external-facing assets and how they appear to the internet, identifying risks that internal scans might miss.
Is this product suitable for smaller educational institutions?
Yes, Bitdefender GravityZone EASM is designed to scale and provide value to educational institutions of all sizes, offering continuous visibility and risk management regardless of IT staff capacity.
