STOP THE BREACH: FROM THE OUTSIDE-IN

External Attack Surface Management (EASM)

Go beyond eliminating blind spots to validating and prioritizing external exposures, based on their exploitability and risk to the business in your internal environment. Gain the adversary’s perspective, from breach to impact, and proactively eliminate the attack paths that matter most.

External Attack Surfaces Keep Expanding

Organizations’ digital footprint expands faster than they can track it. Other EASM solutions produce an overwhelming list of external vulnerabilities but don’t provide the context to help you focus on exposures that are actually exploitable in your environment and put your critical business assets at risk.

Proliferating Shadow
IT

30%-40% of IT expenditure at Large enterprises goes to Shadow IT (Gartner 2024)

Growing Exploitation Speed


> 70% of cybersecurity incidents in 2025 occurred due to unknown or unmanaged assets (Trend Micro 2025)

Misaligned
Prioritization

Prioritization based on generic scoring means you’re not focusing on the greatest risks

End-to-End Exposure Management:
From External to Internal

Proactively discover and address breach points across the holistic external attack surface, and focus prioritization and remediation efforts on external exposures that are exploitable and compromise critical assets.

ELIMINATE BLIND SPOTS. REMOVE FALSE POSITIVES

Analyze the Kill Chain End-to-End for Effective Operations

Interconnected External-to-Internal Risk

Map external-facing assets to internal entities to seamlessly integrate EASM with our industry-leading Attack Graph Analysis™. This grants complete visualization of the attack kill chain – from external entry points all the way to your most sensitive data and critical assets – across on-prem and multi-cloud environments.

Continuous Discovery and Monitoring to Eliminate Blind Spots

Continuously monitor and map your entire internet-facing attack surface – to uncover known, unknown, and rogue assets, including shadow IT, forgotten cloud instances, and critical third-party connections. Continuously monitor your external attack surface for newly created assets and emerging threats from open ports, expired certificates, unpatched vulnerabilities and misconfigurations, to stop attacks before they start.

Exposure Validation Through True Attacker-Centric Insight

See your security posture from the adversary's perspective and run autonomous pentesting to validate exploitability. Understand how seemingly minor external vulnerabilities can be chained together to reach critical internal assets, providing unparalleled clarity on your actual risk. Our unique approach validates real attack paths, preventing initial breaches and lateral movement attempts.

Prioritization of What Really Matters Based on Business Context

Move beyond generic CVSS scores to prioritize exposures based on their impact to your business-critical assets and their remediation ROI. Focus your remediation efforts where they'll have the most impact.

Streamlined Remediation with Actionable Guidance

Get clear, step-by-step guidelines on how to mitigate verified risks to your business. Our guidelines and alternatives empower IT operations to block attack paths and allow security teams to quickly validate that fixes are effective.

Why Customers Love Us

“We are having more meaningful conversations with IT operations because we are able to lay out what vulnerabilities that we should be addressing, and we get their buy-in. We may show them that we don’t have compensating controls in certain areas, so new priorities are needed.”

Director of information security, governance, and risk compliance, Insurance industry

“I measure risk reduction by how long I can sleep. I sleep better now.”

Head of IT infrastructure, Retail industry

“A huge benefit for me right now is that there’s no competition between IT security and IT operations anymore. IT operations uses XM Cyber proactive now. The people responsible for servers, for example, have set up some of their own scenarios and solve problems better than in the past. People see that their actions make their responsible area more secure. Things are much better now.”

CISO, Manufacturing industry

"Microsoft announced a large vulnerability that affected domain controllers and servers, we were able with XM Cyber's help to identify that vulnerability weeks before Microsoft announced that. We were able to patch our environment and get our environment squared up."

CISO, Non-Profit Organization

"We found an exposure where other security tools hadn't discovered it and XM had."

Stephen Owen, Group CISO

"The assistance that XM Cyber can give to the dialogue between the CISO and the executive level and the board level is tremendous"

John Meakin, CISO

"Monitoring, dynamically, continuously, how the posture is changing and the capability to correct possible configuration mistake"

Nicola Sotira, Head of CERT, Cybersecurity expert

״XM Cyber helped us to go from thousands of critical vulnerabilities that we have to just 10, 15 that we could fix. And with this, we prevented the breach of our crown jewels."

Ilaria Buonagurio, Head of Corporate Information Security Prevention

"One of the things that I liked the most was that it presented resolutions for the exposures you have, and not just one, it presents us with several resolutions, several possibilities to remediate the exposures, and I liked that"

Iñaki Bizarro, Head of IT infrastructure

"XM Cyber is an important layer of security... Normally, you have to prove to IT to patch and change configurations. Not with XM Cyber."

Frank Herold, Head of Security Platforms

“Understanding different attack types and how they move around in an environment, that's really where XM Cyber plays a big part for us.“

Anne Petruff, Vice President of Enterprise Services

"To date we improved our score from 69 to 87. This was highly appreciated by my directors on the last board meeting."

Christophe Denis, CISO
