Cloud assets are increasingly vulnerable, now accounting for one-third of all easily exploitable security issues. Organizations using multi-cloud environments—especially outside the major providers—face significantly higher exposure to both critical and easily exploitable risks. To manage this growing threat, businesses need full visibility into their external attack surfaces and should adopt proactive, automated platforms like CyCognito to detect and remediate vulnerabilities quickly.

Cloud-Native Application Protection Platforms (CNAPPs) offer robust internal visibility, but they often fall short in identifying externally exposed assets and real-world vulnerabilities. This blog explores how CyCognito fills these critical gaps by bringing blackbox asset discovery and dynamic application security testing (DAST) to CNAPP workflows, in partnership with Wiz. Through seedless discovery and over 80,000 active security tests, CyCognito helps uncover hidden risks that internal tools miss, enabling DevSecOps teams to prioritize issues based on actual exploitability. The integration provides seamless data flow between platforms, delivering enriched context and actionable insights that significantly enhance cloud security posture.

Managing cybersecurity with constantly changing IP addresses can feel like chasing a moving target. Dynamic IPs, such as from content delivery networks and load balancers, create security blind spots and reduce asset visibility. Without appropriate context and history, security teams waste time on noise while real threats go unnoticed. This blog explores the challenges of dynamic IPs and how CyCognito helps organizations cut through the clutter for clear, actionable security insights.

As manufacturing enterprises adopt digital transformation, integrating SCADA with cloud-based solutions introduces serious cybersecurity risks. This case study highlights how a Fortune 500 manufacturer inadvertently exposed SCADA systems to the internet, making them vulnerable to attacks. Traditional security tools failed to detect these exposures due to blind spots in asset inventory and reliance on predefined IP ranges. By leveraging external exposure management, the company identified and remediated these risks before exploitation. This incident underscores the need for continuous attack surface monitoring, risk-based prioritization, and automated asset discovery to secure operational technology (OT) environments against emerging threats.

Ivanti disclosed two severe vulnerabilities affecting Ivanti Connect Secure VPN devices. While both vulnerabilities involve similar buffer overflow mechanisms, only one allows unauthenticated remote code execution (RCE) and has been exploited in the wild. CyCognito customers can check their assets to identify if any are potentially vulnerable to these issues using filters available in the CyCognito dashboard.
