Reduce Cyber Risk with Attack Surface Discovery

What's this blog post about?

To mitigate against cyber threats, businesses need to know their attack surface, which is the sum of all potential entry points that unauthorized users can exploit. However, with today's dynamic and distributed IT environments, getting visibility into these entry points is no easy feat. Attack surface discovery solutions automate this process by deploying open-source and proprietary intelligence techniques to identify and map Internet-facing assets, including cloud computing services, containerized applications, remote workers, SaaS solutions, and shadow IT assets. By discovering the full extent of their attack surface, businesses can gain a deeper understanding of the risks they face and implement effective security measures to deter threat actors, ultimately strengthening their external security posture.
