What Is Attack Surface Management?

Attack surface management (ASM) is the process of continuously identifying, monitoring and managing all internal and external internet-connected assets.

Attack surface reduction refers to minimizing the points in a system where an unauthorized user could infiltrate or exploit it. It involves identifying and reducing possible entry points for attackers by eliminating unnecessary functionalities, services, and permissions within a system. This approach aims to lower the risk of attacks by limiting the options available to threat actors.

  • Identify and track new and emerging threats in real-time.
  • Gain deep visibility into your organization's entire attack surface.

Vulnerability Assessment & Penetration Testing:

  • Conduct thorough vulnerability assessments to identify and prioritize critical security weaknesses.
  • Perform ethical penetration testing to simulate real-world attack scenarios and uncover exploitable vulnerabilities.
  • Gain actionable insights to guide your remediation efforts.

Threat Intelligence & Risk Analysis:

What is External Attack Surface Management?

External Attack Surface Management (EASM) refers to the processes, technology and managed services deployed to discover internet-facing enterprise assets and systems and associated exposures which include misconfigured public cloud services and servers, exposed enterprise data such as credentials and third-party partner software code vulnerabilities that could be exploited by adversaries. EASM provides valuable risk prioritization and context and actionable information through regular or continuously monitoring and discovery for external-facing assets and systems. External attack surface management is a top priority for security teams and security risk managers.
