Attack Surface Dashboard

Overview

The Attack Surface Management (ASM) Visualisation feature empowers end-users with comprehensive insights into their organisational assets. This innovative capability allows you to visualise and manage your digital assets more effectively, providing a clear understanding of your attack surface and enhancing your overall security posture.

The Attack Surface Dashboard is accessible to Enterprise license clients. To fully populate the dashboard with comprehensive ASM insights, a separate ASM Discovery service, provided by a third party, is required as an additional paid service.
