Data Leak Susceptibility: ThreatNG’s Cloud and SaaS Exposure module identifies sensitive data exposed on platforms like GitHub or Pastebin.
Cyber Risk Exposure: ThreatNG provides a real-time risk score based on vulnerabilities, subdomain headers, and dark web credentials.
Mitigating Supply Chain and Ecosystem Risks
Supply Chain & Third-Party Exposure: ThreatNG evaluates third-party technologies and dependencies to identify risks associated with supply chains.
Breach & Ransomware Susceptibility: It tracks ransomware activity and dark web mentions to detect potential breaches and associated risks.
Navigating Regulatory Challenges
Policy Management and Reporting: ThreatNG generates regulatory compliance reports that can be tailored to specific jurisdictions, helping organizations manage fragmented regulatory landscapes.
Collaboration and Management: Role-based access controls and dynamic questionnaires streamline cross-functional cooperation, reducing dependency on specialized cybersecurity expertise.
Leveraging Advanced Modules for Proactive Defense
Sensitive Code Exposure: ThreatNG detects exposed credentials, configuration files, and other sensitive data in public repositories.
Dark Web Presence: Tracks mentions of organizational assets on dark web forums and identifies leaked credentials.
Continuous Monitoring: Provides 24/7 visibility into external attack surfaces, ensuring timely detection and mitigation of threats.
Examples of ThreatNG in Action
ThreatNG’s capabilities shine in addressing the challenges outlined in the Global Cybersecurity Outlook 2025. For instance, to combat the increasing complexity of cyberspace, ThreatNG employs continuous monitoring to identify new vulnerabilities in exposed web applications. This ensures organizations stay ahead of potential threats.
In the context of geopolitical tensions, ThreatNG’s dark web monitoring and sentiment analysis detect mentions of organizational assets or targeted attacks on forums associated with geopolitical conflicts. This enables proactive adjustments to cyber strategies.
ThreatNG’s evaluation of third-party vendor risks addresses supply chain vulnerabilities, a significant concern. Analyzing technology stacks and dependencies highlights outdated or vulnerable components that could be exploited.
To mitigate ransomware and phishing threats, ThreatNG identifies compromised credentials and detects phishing campaigns targeting employees. For example, it can flag suspicious activity linked to ransomware groups on the dark web.
ThreatNG also addresses subdomain takeover risks by identifying misconfigured subdomains through its Subdomain Intelligence module. This proactive approach prevents attackers from exploiting abandoned or weakly secured subdomains.
Finally, ThreatNG’s dark web monitoring and sensitive code exposure capabilities identify leaked credentials, API keys, or other sensitive information. This ensures organizations can act swiftly to mitigate the risks of data exposure.
