We analyzed more than two million internet-exposed assets across cloud, on-prem, APIs, and web apps, discovered by our platform over the past 18 months. Using attacker-simulated testing, including black-box pentesting, dynamic application security testing (DAST), and active vulnerability scanning, we mapped how exploitable exposures cluster by industry and asset type. The results reveal systemic weaknesses in how organizations govern their digital perimeter, especially in environments shaped by rapid growth, third-party dependencies, and fragmented ownership.

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.
