In today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, organizations face an ever-expanding array of cyber threats. The increasing complexity of IT infrastructures, accelerated by cloud adoption, digital transformation, and remote work, has significantly broadened the attack surface—the sum of all potential entry points for unauthorized access. Effectively managing this attack surface is crucial to safeguarding sensitive data and maintaining operational resilience.
Attack Surface Management (ASM) is a proactive approach that involves continuous discovery, analysis, prioritization, remediation, and monitoring of an organization's cybersecurity vulnerabilities and potential attack vectors. By implementing robust ASM practices, businesses can identify and mitigate risks before they are exploited by malicious actors, thereby strengthening their overall security posture.
Continuous identification of all digital assets, including shadow IT.
A manufacturing firm utilized automated attack surface discovery tools to map out all their digital assets, identifying several unpatched systems and outdated software. Addressing these vulnerabilities helped prevent potential disruptions in their production line and protected sensitive data.
A fintech company conducted a manual attack surface analysis, revealing hidden APIs and exposed services that automated tools missed. By securing these elements, the company significantly reduced their risk of data breaches and financial fraud.
