Xpanse 2.7: Unrivaled Attack Surface Management with Cutting-Edge Scanning and Insights
Organizations today face a significant challenge in managing and securing their expanding attack surfaces. The increasing complexity and scale of digital infrastructures mean that any overlooked or unmonitored component can become a gateway for cyber threats. This poses a critical issue for organizations, as the repercussions of security breaches can be devastating, ranging from financial losses to reputational damage.
To help organizations better secure and reduce their expanding attack surface, Xpanse 2.7 enhances scanning, improves data accessibility, and expands our assessment library.
Comprehensively Discover Your Entire Attack Surface
By regularly scanning all 65,000 ports across all IPv4 addresses, Xpanse is able to provide an unparalleled assessment of potential attack surface risks. This expanded coverage ensures that even non-standard ports, often targeted by attackers, are now closely monitored.
The benefits of this enhanced scanning are already clear from our customers' experiences. For example, one customer used this new capability to successfully detect insecure SSH services deliberately hidden on non-standard ports that might have otherwise gone unnoticed. With these advanced capabilities, your organization can:
- Identify insecure SSH and other services on non-standard ports through expanded port scanning
- Improve coverage to discover all your attack surface risks
- Ensure that no service, even those considered unlikely to be found, is overlooked
