Attack Surface Discovery
Attack Surface Discovery refers to identifying and comprehending all the potential points of entry that malicious actors can exploit to gain unauthorized access to an organization's network, systems, or applications. It involves analyzing and mapping an organization's infrastructure's various assets, services, and vulnerabilities.
The attack surface includes visible and hidden entry points, such as exposed ports, open services, APIs, web applications, software versions, and other potential weak points that attackers could exploit. By understanding the attack surface, organizations can proactively assess their security posture and take appropriate measures to reduce the risk of successful cyberattacks. Regularly conducting attack surface discovery is an essential practice in cybersecurity to stay ahead of potential threats and protect valuable data and resources.
ThreatNG's all-in-one solution for External Attack Surface Management (EASM), Digital Risk Protection (DRP), and Security Ratings offers a unique and comprehensive approach to gaining insights into an organization's "external" view of its cybersecurity posture.
External Attack Surface Management (EASM): ThreatNG's EASM module allows organizations to identify and understand their complete external attack surface. It goes beyond scanning for visible assets, extending to discover hidden or lesser-known attack vectors, including exposing ports, web applications, cloud resources, third-party integrations, and other potential entry points that attackers could exploit. By providing a detailed and comprehensive view of the external attack surface, EASM empowers organizations to address vulnerabilities and reduce the risk of external breaches proactively.
Digital Risk Protection (DRP): With the DRP capabilities, ThreatNG helps organizations monitor and protect their digital presence across various online platforms. It actively scans the web and dark web for any signs of data leaks, brand impersonation, or unauthorized exposure of sensitive information. By monitoring social media, forums, and other online channels, the DRP module assists in detecting potential threats and unauthorized disclosures that may harm an organization's reputation or expose critical data.
Security Ratings: ThreatNG's Security Ratings feature provides organizations with an objective and quantifiable assessment of their cybersecurity posture. It evaluates the security practices and risk levels of an organization and its third-party vendors. By analyzing factors like patch management, encryption protocols, and known vulnerabilities, Security Ratings provide actionable insights into potential weaknesses that need immediate attention.
Combining EASM, DRP, and Security Ratings within ThreatNG's all-in-one solution presents a differentiated and more complete approach to understanding the external threat landscape. By integrating these capabilities, organizations gain a holistic view of their cybersecurity risks from an external perspective empowering them to proactively address vulnerabilities, mitigate risks, and strengthen their overall security posture, thus safeguarding their digital assets, data, and reputation more effectively. The comprehensive nature of ThreatNG's solution ensures that organizations stay ahead of potential threats and make well-informed decisions to protect their digital infrastructure from evolving cyber threats.
