When choosing an external attack surface management solution, comparing pricing and features isn’t enough. Businesses need to see if the platform has the capability to improve their security visibility and manage risks.
This is what businesses should compare before making their final decision:
Asset discovery: Can the solution do asset discovery for internet-facing applications, domains and network services?
Exposure visibility: Does the solution help identify exposed ports, applications, and security configuration issues?
Brand monitoring: Does the solution help identify suspicious domains, social media profiles, and employees who are posing as the business?
Threat intelligence: Does the solution provide threat information and leaked credentials?
Risk prioritisation: Does the solution allow the security team to determine which findings deserve more focus?
Remediation: It is one thing to find a weakness, but can the solution also help manage and/or address it?
Foresee Security's product offers several features for managing external attack surface areas like application security, network security, email security, brand protection and Dark Web intelligence. It also offers takedown support for fraudulent domains and accounts.
