Increased Visibility
into your Security Posture

By keeping an eye on your external attack surface, you can ensure that no one will use your domains in any unauthorized or malicious ways. You can also ensure that none of your critical information are exposed publicly on the internet.  Detect proactively changes that could potentially introduce new vulnerabilities, identify vulnerabilities before an attacker exploit them and keep your perimeter under control. You can then make informed decisions on how to improve your security posture.

External Attack Surface Benefits

"Both the multiplicity of definitions and inconsistency of perimeters means that security must be done differently than most organizations have done to-date. You have to secure perimeters in a continuous way, monitoring your networks and services as well as all relevant data. "

"Only 9% of organizations believe they actively monitor 100% of their attack surface. The highest percentage (29%) say they actively monitor between 75% and 89% of the attack surface while many monitor even less. Aside from the obvious ‘blind spot’ problem here, most organizations have lots of internet-facing assets they don’t even know about. "

"Enterprise attack surfaces are expanding. Risks associated with the use of cyber-physical systems and IoT, open-source code, cloud applications, complex digital supply chains, social media and more have brought organizations’ exposed surfaces outside of a set of controllable assets. Organizations must look beyond traditional approaches to security monitoring, detection and response to manage a wider set of security exposures."

"The number of entry points through which attackers can infiltrate a given environment is nearly endless, from domains and subdomains to third-party providers and SaaS tools. Often, when security breaches happen, it’s through an unsecured, forgotten attack surface – a server that no one knew existed, an old landing page, an entry point with weak passwords, or an application that was missing a patch."
