What looks like a niche vulnerability in one attack surface becomes a pattern when you look across thousands. That's the power of automated depth in modern ASM. Listen to our full discussion: Spotify: Apple Podcasts: YouTube: 🔍 Request a demo: #AttackSurfaceManagement

🔍 The origin story of true ASM: 'We need to capture everything - new ports, changes, technologies - anything that could lead to exploitation.' But monitoring isn't enough. Real ASM combines: - Real-time asset awareness - Scalable coverage - True exploitability assessment Listen to our Surfacing Security podcast episode where we share the journey and insights: Spotify: Apple Podcasts: YouTube: 💡 Get a complete view of your attack surface: #CyberSecurity #AttackSurfaceManagement #SecurityInnovation #AttackSurface #TechEvolution

🛡️ Finding vulnerabilities is just the first step. The untold story: Our teams often spend weeks developing effective mitigations, working to have solutions ready before vendor patches. Because security isn't just about discovery - it's about protection. Learn more 🎧 Spotify: Apple: YouTube: 📱 See your attack surface: #SecurityResearch #AppSec #AttackSurfaceManagement

In our Surfacing Security Podcast, we redefine #AttackSurfaceManagement. It's not just asset discovery - it's about integrating real-time asset awareness into core security processes.

🎯 Attack Surface Management Must Cover Modern Environments Over the last 10 years, Attack Surfaces have evolved. With the introduction of SaaS, CDNs and Cloud Platforms, the IT environment has expanded significantly. Many legacy scanners and IP centric scanning approaches are unable to cover these assets effectively. Given the shift, we designed Assetnote to cover these modern attack surfaces at scale.
