External Attack Surface Management (EASM)

EASM provides real-time discovery, monitoring, and risk analysis of all external-facing assets — helping you identify vulnerabilities, prevent shadow IT risks, and secure your expanding digital perimeter before attackers strike.

External Attack Surface Management (EASM)

How It Works!

Streamline asset visibility and exposure management with automated discovery, risk assessment, and continuous monitoring.

1

Discover Every Asset

Automatically identify all domains, IPs, cloud services, APIs, and digital assets connected to your organization.

2

Analyze & Prioritize Risks

Evaluate exposure levels, detect vulnerabilities, and assign risk scores to critical assets.

3

Continuous Monitoring

Get real-time alerts on new or changing assets, misconfigurations, or potential exploits across your external surface.

External Attack Surface Management FAQ’s

What is External Attack Surface Management (EASM)?
It’s a process of discovering, monitoring, and securing all external-facing assets that attackers can target.
How does EASM differ from vulnerability scanning?
EASM focuses on visibility and asset discovery, while vulnerability scanning targets known weaknesses within those assets.
Why do organizations need EASM?
To prevent breaches caused by unknown or unmonitored assets — often the biggest blind spots in cybersecurity.
What kind of assets does EASM discover?
Domains, IPs, APIs, cloud servers, and external-facing infrastructure components.
Does QSafe’s EASM detect shadow IT assets?
Yes, it uncovers unauthorized systems and applications outside your managed network.
How often does it scan for new assets?
EASM performs continuous and automated scanning to detect any new or changed assets instantly.
Can EASM integrate with other QSafe modules?
Yes — it’s fully integrated with Auto Asset Discovery, Brand Protection, and Threat Watch.
How does EASM help in risk reduction?
By identifying exposure early, prioritizing risks, and enabling faster remediation actions.
Can EASM detect vulnerabilities in cloud environments?
Yes, it monitors AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud for open ports, misconfigurations, and exposed endpoints.
What reports can I generate from EASM?
You can export asset inventory, exposure trends, and risk score reports for internal audits.
Is it suitable for all industries?
Yes, especially beneficial for BFSI, IT, manufacturing, and e-commerce sectors.
Does it provide risk scoring?
Yes, every asset is assigned a real-time exposure and severity score.
How does EASM enhance brand protection?
By preventing external misuse of your domains, IPs, or assets through continuous monitoring.
Does EASM include dark web visibility?
Yes, when paired with QSafe’s Dark Web Intelligence, it flags exposed credentials or stolen data.
Can alerts be customized?
Absolutely — users can configure alerts by asset type, risk level, or region.
Is manual setup required?
No, QSafe EASM is fully automated after domain verification.
Can it track third-party vendor risks?
Yes, it continuously monitors external dependencies and shared services.
Does it integrate with SIEM or SOAR tools?
Yes, QSafe provides APIs for seamless integration with your existing infrastructure.
Can I visualize my attack surface?
Yes, through an interactive dashboard that maps every discovered and monitored asset.
How does EASM strengthen compliance?
It supports continuous monitoring and documentation, helping meet standards like ISO 27001 and GDPR.
