NetSPI Launches Advancements in Continuous Asset Exposure Management with New Solutions
In today's evolving landscape of cyber threats, organizations are challenged more than ever to protect their digital assets. To address these challenges, NetSPI®, a leading proactive cybersecurity provider, has launched an innovative range of solutions focused on external attack surface management (EASM). With a commitment to continuous threat exposure management (CTEM), NetSPI's offerings are designed to provide organizations with the tools needed to not only discover and assess their vulnerabilities but also to enhance their overall security posture.
Overview of EASM Solutions
Recently, NetSPI introduced three distinct tiers of EASM solutions through The NetSPI Platform. Each tier is tailored to meet the varying needs of businesses across different industries, addressing a common demand for continuous monitoring and assessment of external attack surfaces. These solutions are more than just reactive—they empower security teams to proactively identify and mitigate risks before they can be exploited by cyber adversaries.
Tom Parker, NetSPI's Chief Technology Officer (CTO) highlights, "To outpace today's adversaries, organizations need continuous discovery, assessment, and controls validation of their attack surfaces." This approach is a departure from traditional methods that often provided a static, point-in-time view of security, instead offering continuous insights into potential vulnerabilities.
The Three Tiers of EASM
NetSPI's new EASM offerings include:
1. EASM Lite: This is a fully automated and lightweight solution aimed at asset discovery. It is designed to quickly help organizations identify and understand their external attack surfaces and exposures, making it a perfect choice for businesses with limited resources or those just beginning their security journey.
2. EASM Standard: An upgraded version of the previous offerings, EASM Standard includes enhanced features coupled with expert exposure validation. This tier provides security teams with the capability to rapidly identify, verify, and prioritize remediation efforts for identified external vulnerabilities.
3. EASM Plus: This comprehensive solution incorporates continuous external penetration testing, ensuring that businesses receive up-to-date assessments of their external attack surface. It is fortified with ongoing discovery and exposure identification, alongside consultant-driven penetration testing to offer a thorough understanding of risk levels.
The Importance of CTEM
The rise of Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) is a reflection of the growing need for dynamic security protocols that can adapt in real-time to the changing threat landscape. As cybersecurity continues to evolve, many Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) are embracing CTEM as a forward-thinking strategy to address vulnerabilities methodically. NetSPI stands unique in its capacity to offer a comprehensive platform that integrates critical components such as EASM and penetration testing, thus streamlining security processes for businesses.
The Impact on Organizations
Aaron Shilts, NetSPI's CEO, emphasizes the advantages of the new EASM offerings, stating, "This innovation makes external attack surface management accessible for organizations with diverse requirements." By enabling organizations to take steps toward building robust CTEM programs, these new solutions are set to revolutionize how enterprises manage cybersecurity risks.
Moreover, NetSPI’s acquisition of Hubble, an award-winning Cyber Asset Attack Surface Management (CAASM) solution earlier this year, enhances its offerings, providing an even more integrated approach to managing and safeguarding assets.
