Attack Surface Management (ASM)
Mitigate risks and stay one step ahead of cyber adversaries in this increasingly hostile digital and online landscape with Attack Surface Management.
About Our Attack Surface Management
Ekco’s Attack Surface Management (ASM) service supports support organisations that are seeking to protect themselves against cyber-attacks. This managed security service provides detection and response, which involves the monitoring, analysis, and investigation of security events from the deployed ASM technologies.
Events and alerts are triaged and assessed by a team of highly skilled SOC analysts to determine security impact, risk and probability, raising security incidents where required.
Our ASM meets client requirements, providing a holistic and sophisticated visibility, detection and response covering the external Attack Surface of client environments.
Do you know your attack surface?
If your only prior knowledge of your business’s attack surface comes from conducting a pen test, its time to reevaluate your approach. Traditional penetration testing has its place as a security service, but it is only a point-in-time assurance validation against your attack surface and limited in its scope.
Whereas a sophisticated Attack Surface Management (ASM) and Breach Attack Simulation (BAS) capability, delivered by a trusted and accredited managed service provider, will continually discover and monitor changes in your attack surface – whilst also probing, validating and performing real world adversarial emulation.

In this dynamic threat landscape, the need for a ‘continuous’ approach to security testing is required. Organisations need to know about cyber risks and threats in ‘hours’ rather than ‘months’. That’s where a managed security service like ASM bridges that gap.
Ekco’s 24/7 detection and response service delivered in partnership with watchTowr’s market-leading EASM technology, provides sophisticated attacker-led holistic visibility and continuous assurance testing. By having the watchTowr platform in place, your organisation can effectively mitigate risks and stay one step ahead of cyber adversaries.
Our partnership with watchTowr further evolves the capability of our Security Services to our customers. You can only defend against the cyber threats when you understand the attackers.

Why Choose Ekco’s Attack Surface Management?
Attacker-led holistic visibility
Holistic visibility built to reflect an attacker targeting an organisation – whether it’s a mobile app, a domain, an IP, a container, SaaS platforms and more – the watchTowr Platform provides real time visibility of your organisations attack surface and hunts 24/7.
Always on security testing
Continuous discovery, holistic visibility and autonomous testing of your entire attack surface against thousands of continually evolving attacker techniques – as rapidly as every 15 minutes to identify and validate exploitable vulnerabilities as soon as they appear.
A real persistent adversary
Aligned to MITRE ATT&CK, the watchTowr platform leverages broad TTPs to discover vulnerabilities – including credential stuffing, DNA Analysis and thousands of other advanced techniques. If a ransomware gang does it, so does the watchTowr platform.
Rapid reaction to emerging threats
Ekco’s MDR service powered by the watchTowr platform provides 24/7 eyes on screen monitoring and real-time analysis, helping to prevent breaches and the exposure to emerging threats and vulnerabilities.
We’ve seen attackers broaden their tactics and techniques to include numerous attacks. This reality, combined with a significant reduction in the time taken by attackers to weaponize vulnerabilities, reflects how aggressive and persistent ransomware gangs and other attackers have become.

FAQs About ASM
What is ASM?
ASM, which stands for Attack Surface Management, is a managed cyber security service that involves the continuous monitoring, discovery, and reduction of potential entry points that cyber attackers could exploit.
‘Attack surface’ refers to an organisation’s digital systems, cloud services, applications and networks.
ASM provides businesses with increased visibility into all possible points of access or entry for cyber criminals. This full picture enables company’s to take proactive, rather than reactive, security measures and implement patches to prevent breach before they occur.
