Overview
What this engagement solves.
As organizations move to the cloud, their external footprint grows rapidly. Overlooked assets—forgotten subdomains, staging servers, and shadow IT cloud buckets—become easy entry points for attackers. Our Attack Surface Management (ASM) service acts as a continuous discovery system. We monitor the internet to map out every asset connected to your domain, identifying exposed management interfaces, out-of-date systems, and configuration errors before attackers can find them.
Why it matters
Risk context your team can act on.
Eliminate Shadow IT
Discover staging, development, and test servers created by internal teams that were left online without proper security controls.
Continuous Exposure Tracking
Identify and remediate open ports, misconfigured databases, and expired SSL certificates in real-time rather than waiting for annual audits.
Stop Subdomain Takeovers
Find DNS pointers referencing inactive cloud services (S3 buckets, Heroku apps) to prevent hijackers from claiming your domain names.
Capabilities
What is included.
Continuous Asset Discovery
Mapping domain structures, DNS configurations, public IP spaces, and cloud accounts to catalog your complete digital footprint.
Vulnerability Profiling
Continuous automated scanning of public-facing endpoints to detect end-of-life software, weak cipher suites, and misconfigurations.
DNS & Subdomain Monitoring
Surveillance of DNS records to alert you of zone transfer exposures, orphaned pointers, and configuration errors.
Methodology
A clear path through the work.
Asset Seed Input
Collect known IP blocks, primary domains, and cloud environments to initialize the discovery engine.
Automated Scraping
Crawl DNS records, certificate logs, and OSINT lists to find hidden subdomains and assets.
Port Profiling
Scan discovered systems to map open ports, active services, and web application framework details.
Risk Prioritization
Triage exposures, ranking issues by exploitability and the value of the targeted server.
Alert Dispatch
Send immediate alerts to system administrators when severe gaps (e.g. open databases) are found.
Attack Path Review
Analyze how multiple low-risk findings could be chained by a threat actor to compromise a network.
