What This Solves
Continuous External Asset Discovery and Monitoring
Enable teams to automatically discover and continuously monitor all internet-facing assets, including shadow IT and cloud resources. Streamline the identification of new or forgotten assets that could pose a security risk.
cloud-first deployments, hybrid environments, distributed IT infrastructure, organizations with rapid asset changes
Proactive Vulnerability and Misconfiguration Detection
Automate the detection of exploitable vulnerabilities, critical misconfigurations, and exposed sensitive data across the external attack surface. Prioritize remediation efforts based on real-world exploitability and business impact.
security operations centers, risk management frameworks, compliance-driven environments, incident response planning
Attack Path Visualization and Risk Prioritization
Streamline the understanding of potential attack paths by visualizing how threat actors could move from external assets into the internal network. Focus security resources on the most critical risks.
threat modeling exercises, security awareness training, executive risk reporting, penetration testing support

Frequently Asked Questions
What is an external attack surface?
An organization's external attack surface refers to all the internet-facing assets and potential entry points that cybercriminals could use to launch an attack. This includes websites, servers, cloud services, and even employee-owned devices connected to the internet.
How does this service help government agencies?
For government agencies, this service provides crucial visibility into their external digital footprint, helping to identify and mitigate risks that could compromise sensitive data or critical infrastructure. It aids in meeting stringent security and compliance requirements.
Is this a replacement for internal vulnerability scanning?
No, this service focuses specifically on the external attack surface. It complements internal security measures by providing a view from the attacker's perspective, identifying risks that might be missed by internal scans alone.
