CyCognito External Exposure Management platform delivers continuous visibility and active validation across your external footprint, so teams focus on exploitable risk and remediate efficiently.
Real discovery surfaces assets you didn’t know to look for. CyCognito uses a 60,000+ node global network to continuously identify, classify, and map external assets across cloud services, web apps, APIs, on-prem, and more.
Act On Verified Risk, Not Guesswork
Validation separates exploitable risk from noise. Always-on security testing verifies exploitability across 30+ categories, covering OWASP weaknesses, data exposure, orphaned assets, authentication bypass risk, and more.
Focus On What Attackers Target First
Prioritization falls short without context. Alongside active validation, CyCognito also use proprietary logic to link findings to business context, attack paths, and external threat intelligence to separate noise from exploitable issues.
Put Findings in the Right Hands
Up to 50% of tickets are closed without resolving the issue. CyCognito links findings to asset owners, routes them through integrated workflows, provides guided remediation steps, and automatically validates fixes to ensure security gaps are actually closed.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Traditional scanners work from the inside out. They depend on known asset lists and/or require network access. CyCognito works from the outside in, observing your attack surface like an attacker would, to discover unknown exposed assets, including shadow IT, forgotten infrastructure, and third-party exposure. It then connects exposures into reachable attack paths, so you see how attackers could get to critical systems, not just a flat list of vulnerabilities.
CyCognito is a SaaS platform with no deployment, agents, or network access required. Because it operates outside in, it can start with your organization’s name and public footprint to discover and map your external attack surface. There is no infrastructure to maintain, and discovery begins immediately with results surfaced as the platform maps your footprint.
On the contrary. CyCognito reduces noise by validating exploitability and modeling attack paths before alerting. You get a focused set of confirmed, reachable risks prioritized by business impact, instead of high volumes of theoretical issues and false positives. The result is fewer, higher-confidence remediation tasks than traditional scanners produce.
CyCognito prioritizes exposures using business context, active validation, and threat intelligence, not severity scores alone. We confirm what is actually exploitable, map likely attack paths, and assess blast radius to show which issues create real exposure. Customers typically see a 25% “critical” rate drop to 0.1% or less in verified exploitable findings. This enables them focus on a short, defensible list of what to fix first.
Yes. CyCognito uses native integrations with CAASM, CMDB, IoT/OT and other asset and security tools to correlate externally discovered exposures with your internal asset inventory. This creates a single view of what you own and how it can be reached from the outside.
By linking external exposures to internal systems and business units, CyCognito highlights the small number of attack paths that actually matter, cutting through noise and exposing the routes attackers are most likely to take. This holistic mapping enables faster prioritization, clearer ownership and a better view of which risks could meaningfully impact your operations.
