What This Solves
Identify Shadow IT and Unknown Assets
Enable teams to discover and inventory all internet-facing assets, including those not managed by IT. Streamline the process of identifying unauthorized or forgotten systems that could be exploited.
cloud-first environments, hybrid IT deployments, rapid growth organizations, distributed workforces
Prioritize Vulnerability Remediation
Automate the assessment of external vulnerabilities, providing clear prioritization based on exploitability and potential business impact. Focus limited IT resources on the most critical threats first.
security operations centers, IT risk management programs, compliance-focused businesses, managed IT environments
Map Potential Attack Paths
Visualize how attackers could move from external exposures to critical internal assets. Support strategic security planning by understanding the most likely attack vectors.
incident response planning, threat modeling exercises, security architecture reviews, proactive defense strategies
Key Features
Continuous External Asset Discovery
Provides an always-up-to-date inventory of all internet-facing assets, eliminating blind spots caused by shadow IT or forgotten systems.
AI-driven Risk Scoring
Automatically prioritizes vulnerabilities based on real-world exploitability and potential business impact, enabling efficient resource allocation for remediation.
Attack Path Visualization
Helps security teams understand how attackers might breach the perimeter by mapping potential routes to critical assets.
Misconfiguration Detection
Identifies insecure configurations on external services and applications that could be exploited by threat actors.
Threat Intelligence Correlation

Industry Applications
Finance & Insurance
This sector faces stringent regulatory compliance requirements (e.g., GLBA, PCI DSS) and high-value targets, making proactive external risk management critical to prevent data breaches and maintain customer trust.
Healthcare & Life Sciences
Healthcare organizations handle sensitive patient data (PHI) governed by HIPAA, requiring robust security measures to protect against breaches and ensure continuous availability of critical systems.
Retail & Hospitality
These businesses often manage large volumes of customer data and payment information, making them targets for attacks aimed at financial fraud or data theft, necessitating strong external perimeter security.
Legal & Professional Services
Firms handle confidential client information and are subject to professional ethics and data privacy regulations, requiring diligent protection of their external digital assets to prevent reputational damage and legal liability.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is External Attack Surface Management (EASM)?
EASM is a security discipline focused on discovering, monitoring, and reducing an organization's external-facing digital footprint. It helps identify vulnerabilities and risks that attackers could exploit from outside the network.
How does this service differ from internal vulnerability scanning?
Internal scanning focuses on threats within your network. EASM specifically targets exposures visible from the public internet, addressing risks like shadow IT, misconfigured cloud services, and publicly accessible vulnerable applications.
Is this a replacement for a firewall or endpoint protection?
No, EASM is a complementary security layer. It provides visibility and risk prioritization that informs and enhances the effectiveness of your existing security controls like firewalls, EDR, and other preventative measures.
