WHITEPAPER

The real attack surface and what the official inventory does not record

Context-aware discovery with Machine Learning: why subdomain enumeration reveals only a fraction of the real attack surface — and how to identify the rest (Shadow IT, inherited infrastructure, undocumented APIs and the supplier chain). 11 pages, with 3 real cases.

WHY READ IT

What this whitepaper solves

ASM tools on the market rely on subdomain enumeration, a method that reveals 30 to 40% of the real attack surface. The rest stays invisible: shadow IT, infrastructure inherited from acquisitions, undocumented APIs and the digital supply chain. This whitepaper shows how ML-Powered Discovery finds what sits outside the inventory, with three real cases and first-party data from the CSURFACE platform.
