Detectify Introduces Enhanced Tools to Manage Growing Attack Surfaces

As cyber threats evolve, organizations are increasingly challenged by their growing attack surfaces. Detectify, a leading platform for attack surface management, has responded by launching new features designed to give users greater control over their attack surface data. These upgrades aim to help security teams better interpret and act on the wealth of insights their data provides, enhancing their ability to detect and respond to potential threats.

A key feature is the updated Domains page, which now offers a detailed overview of all monitored domains within an organization’s attack surface. This page continually attributes data to each domain, including IP addresses, cloud providers, and detected technologies over time. This comprehensive view allows users to identify anomalies and assess exposure risks more effectively. Security teams can now create custom policies for their attack surface data, enabling quicker and more accurate responses to new threats.

In addition to the revamped Domains page, Detectify has enhanced its platform’s ability to set custom attack surface policies. Users can now configure alerts for policy breaches based on their specific risk definitions. For example, customers can set policies to be notified when a particular cloud provider is detected on a group of domains. This customization allows security teams to tailor their monitoring and response strategies to their unique risk profiles.

Danwei Tran Luciani, VP of Product at Detectify, highlighted the importance of these updates for their global users. "Our users depend on hundreds of attack surface policies daily," Tran Luciani said. "With these new features, they can create custom policies on a wide range of new attributes, providing greater precision and control in managing their attack surfaces." This level of detail is expected to greatly enhance the effectiveness of security teams in mitigating potential threats.

Detectify has made the updated Domains page and improved attack surface policies available to all Surface Monitoring users. The company plans to continue adding new data points to the Domains page, enriching the details of the security policies that users can set up and receive notifications about. These enhancements reflect Detectify's dedication to equipping users with the necessary tools and knowledge to remain proactive in the face of the ever-changing cyber threat environment.

Detectify’s latest features represent a significant advancement in the battle against cyber threats. These improvements give organizations greater control over their attack surface data and enable the creation of more detailed security policies. Consequently, Detectify equips security teams with the critical tools necessary to better protect their digital assets. In a time of growing attack surfaces, these improvements are crucial for organizations to successfully manage the intricate and constantly evolving realm of cyber threats.
