External Attack Surface Monitoring
Continuous security monitoring with PCI-DSS 4.0 Continuous Exposure approach
Project Description
This project encompasses continuous monitoring of the organization's internet-facing assets (IP, domain, subdomain, port and services) and reporting unexpected changes.
The continuous security approach introduced with PCI-DSS 4.0 prioritizes continuous monitoring of assets on the external surface, risk assessment of changes, and detection before attackers move to the discovery phase.
The solution is implemented with continuous monitoring and automated alert modeling. Early detection of shadow IT and unauthorized opened services is provided.
Project Methodology
Continuous discovery and automated alert approach
Initial Baseline Creation
All internet-facing assets of the organization are mapped. IP blocks, domains, subdomains and active services are recorded as baseline.
Continuous Discovery and Monitoring
Daily automated discovery is performed. Newly opened IPs, subdomains, ports and services are detected.
Change Detection and Risk Analysis
Deviations from baseline are automatically determined. Shadow IT, unauthorized services and misconfigurations are analyzed.
Automated Alert Mechanism
Instant alerts are sent for critical changes. Notification is made via webhook, email or SIEM integration.
Periodic Reporting and Visualization
Attack surface changes are visualized on dashboard. Trend analysis and risk scoring are reported.
