In the digital era, managing your attack surface – the sum total of all potential attack vectors in your systems – is a critical part of your cybersecurity strategy. Attack Surface Management (ASM) provides the insights and tools necessary to understand, assess, prioritize and remediate risks faster and more effectively. In this post, we’re going to explore eight key ASM advantages for security teams, and the key product capabilities needed to achieve them.

As security teams witness that their organization’s digital footprint keeps growing in size and complexity, the urgent need for attack surface discovery becomes clear. But what exactly does attack surface discovery entail, and why is it so crucial in today’s digital landscape? This blog post aims to demystify attack surface discovery and provide insights into its importance for security operations teams.

CVE-2023-34362 is an SQL injection (SQLi) vulnerability that has been found in the MOVEit Transfer web application that could allow an unauthenticated attacker to gain unauthorized access to MOVEit Transfer’s database. SQL Injection (SQLi) poses significant risks as it allows attackers to potentially steal, manipulate, or delete sensitive data from databases.

Cybersecurity is an intricate, multidimensional game of defense that requires businesses to stay one step ahead of threat actors. Among the several dimensions to consider, understanding the differences between attack vectors, attack surfaces, and attack paths is paramount. In this blog post, we aim to elucidate the concepts of attack vector, attack surface, and attack path, and how information security professionals can help secure their digital terrain more effectively.

Data breaches are an ever-present risk for organizations of all sizes — and the larger the attack surface, the greater the risk. There is growing awareness of the need to manage the attack surface, and reducing the attack surface is an essential component. However, many companies lack full visibility into their real attack surface, making reduction challenging.

IONIX has won the ‘Cutting Edge Attack Surface Management’ Global InfoSec award from Cyber Defense Magazine (CDM), the industry’s leading electronic information security magazine. “We’re thrilled to receive one of the most prestigious and coveted cybersecurity awards from Cyber Defense Magazine,” said Marc Gaffan, CEO, IONIX.

IONIX has won a Gold Globee® Cybersecurity Award for Best Security Software for its ASM platform. The 19th Annual 2023 Globee® Cybersecurity Awards honor achievements and recognitions in the cyber and digital security industry worldwide. Using Connective Intelligence, IONIX accurately maps an organization’s real attack surface and its digital supply chain.

External Attack Surface Management (EASM) and Digital Risk Protection Services (DRPS) are two important tools in the arsenal of any organization’s cybersecurity strategy. However, there is a significant difference between the two approaches that should not be overlooked.

We are in the age of advanced cybersecurity threats. Researchers are constantly on the lookout for new and innovative ways to protect against cyber-attacks. Recent studies have indicated that spider webs may be the next big thing. While spider webs might seem like an unlikely candidate, breakthrough research has shown that spider webs have the potential to revolutionize attack surface management.
