FREQUENT QUESTIONS

FAQ

What is External Attack Surface Management?

External Attack Surface Management (EASM) is the continuous process of identifying, classifying, and managing the potential entry points (attack vectors) that a cybercriminal could exploit to gain unauthorized access to a system or data. 

Key components: 

  • Discovery
    Continuously identify all assets, such as network assets, systems/servers, cloud-native platform assets, domain, and web assets, that form part of your organizations external attack surface. 
  • Inventory and classification
    Create and maintain an inventory of assets and classify them based on risk and exposure.
  • Risk analysis
    Assess the risk associated with each asset by understanding its exposure and the potential impact of its compromise.
  • Monitoring and management
    Continuously monitor your attack surface for changes and emerging threats and take steps to manage and reduce risks. 

Goals: 

  • Provide a comprehensive view of all possible attack vectors. 
  • Reduce your attack surface by eliminating unnecessary or vulnerable assets. 
  • Improve your organizations ability to prevent attacks by effectively understanding and managing your attack surface. 

Is External Attack Surface Management a part of your platform and products?

Yes, when using any of the following products, External Attack Surface Management is included: 

Does your External Attack Surface Management discover blank spots and shadow IT?

Yes, our platform continuously discovers assets that you may be unaware of, such as blank spots and shadow IT. 

What is the difference between External Attack Surface Management and vulnerability management?

External Attack Surface Management aims to reduce your number of potential attack vectors and manage the risk associated with your attack surface. In contrast, vulnerability management aims to ensure the security of systems and applications by addressing known vulnerabilities. 

What Is the difference between External Attack Surface Management (EASM) and Attack Surface Management (ASM)?

ASM includes both internal and external assets, providing a holistic view of the entire IT environment, while EASM focuses exclusively on internet-facing assets. 

What does your External Attack Surface Management discover?

Automatically and continuously discover new assets and asset changes within the following asset types. You can automatically assess these assets to find vulnerabilities based on the findings. 

  • All kinds of systems/servers
  • Web applications
  • API applications
  • Domain assets
  • Cloud-native assets

Do I need External Attack Surface Management and vulnerability management?

Yes, it's essential to both understand and reduce the attack surface, as well as understand and remediate the vulnerabilities found in your attack surface.
