Security Solution

External Attack Surface Management

Know what attackers see — before they exploit it.

Continuously discover, monitor, and reduce your internet-facing exposure. Identify unknown, unmanaged, and misconfigured external assets before they are weaponized.

The Challenge

Organizations often don't know what's visible from the outside. Forgotten subdomains, misconfigured cloud services, exposed APIs, third-party connections, and legacy systems create an external attack surface that grows with every change. Attackers actively scan for these exposures. You should too.

How PurpleGuard Manages Your External Surface

Continuous Asset Discovery

Automated discovery of all internet-facing assets — domains, IP ranges, cloud services, APIs, and third-party exposures.

Exposure Detection

Identify open ports, misconfigurations, expired certificates, and exposed sensitive data.

Vulnerability Intelligence

Map discovered assets to known vulnerabilities and exploitation attempts from threat intelligence feeds.

Risk Prioritization

Prioritize exposures based on exploitability, business impact, and active threat actor interest.

Dark Web Monitoring

Monitor underground forums and dark web markets for mentions of your assets and brand.

Continuous Monitoring

Ongoing alerting when new exposures are discovered or existing ones change state.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is External Attack Surface Management (EASM)?

EASM is the continuous process of discovering, inventorying, and monitoring all internet-facing assets your organisation owns — domains, IPs, cloud services, APIs, and web applications — so you can identify and remediate exposures before attackers exploit them.

How does EASM differ from a penetration test?

A penetration test is a point-in-time assessment. EASM is continuous — it monitors your external footprint 24/7 and alerts you when new assets appear, certificates expire, open ports change, or credentials are exposed in data breaches. The two services complement each other.

Can EASM find assets we don't know we own?

Yes — this is one of its core strengths. Shadow IT, forgotten subdomains, acquired companies, and cloud infrastructure spin-up by developers often create unknown exposures. EASM discovers all assets associated with your organisation's digital footprint.

How does EASM support NCA ECC compliance in KSA?

NCA ECC requires organisations to maintain an updated asset inventory and identify vulnerabilities proactively. EASM automates the external asset inventory requirement and provides continuous vulnerability discovery aligned to NCA ECC domains.

What does PurpleGuard monitor for in EASM?

We monitor exposed ports and services, SSL/TLS certificate expiry, subdomain takeover risks, leaked credentials in dark web sources, misconfigured cloud storage, domain reputation, and third-party supply chain exposure for your digital ecosystem.

Attackers are scanning your perimeter right now. Are you?

PurpleGuard's EASM solution gives you the attacker's view of your external exposure — continuously.
