Data Scientist
July 15, 2025
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.
