A unified platform that combines external attack surface management (EASM) and internal asset discovery to provide a complete view of an organization's attack surface. ASM platforms continuously discover assets, assess their exposure, prioritize risks, and track remediation. They serve as the operational hub for exposure management programs, integrating data from vulnerability scanners, cloud inventories, and threat intelligence.
Attack surface management is the foundation of proactive security. Security engineers operate ASM platforms to maintain asset visibility. Security architects use ASM data to identify architectural weaknesses. CISOs rely on ASM metrics to report on organizational exposure. This platform category is central to continuous threat exposure management (CTEM) programs.
