FireCompass has been advocating the importance of External Attack Surface Management for a long time to enhance organization’s cyber security postures. We have been helping organizations across verticals to get a clear visibility into their attack surface so that they can take proactive steps to mitigate risks. Now with the Gartner Report “Emerging Technologies: Critical Insights for External Attack Surface Management,” our vision touched a new landmark.
As a pioneer in EASM space, this is a great validation not just for us but also for the CISO community who trusted our vision. We are super excited to be recognized as a leader and innovator in this Gartner report along with IDC Innovator for “Attack Surface Management” and RSAC 365 Innovation Showcase. Special thanks to Rugero Contu, Elizabeth Kim, and Mark Wah, authors of the Gartner report, for believing in our vision and spreading the word to the larger community.
“EASM should be part of a broader enterprise-wide vulnerability and threat management effort, where known and unknown risks, vulnerabilities and assets are handled as part of an integrated strategy.”

Why is Gartner Talking About External Attack Surface Management?
We strongly believe that EASM should be the foundation of any and every security program. No organization can protect themselves if they do not have clear visibility to unknown & orphaned apps, exposed databases, and APIs. unknown shadow IT assets and entry points for a hacker. External Attack Surface Management from FireCompass is a combination of process and technology to discover external-facing (Internet exposed) enterprise assets and systems that may have vulnerabilities.
