Attack
Surface Assessment
Find exposed services, forgotten systems, and cloud assets. Get a clearer picture of what is reachable from outside your organisation.
Overview
See yourself as the attacker does.
We discover and analyse your external (and optionally internal) attack surface, surfacing the assets and exposures you may not know exist, and prioritise them by risk. It is the perfect precursor to penetration testing and the foundation of ongoing attack-surface management.

A complete, prioritised map of your exposure.
- External footprint discovery
- Shadow IT & forgotten assets

FAQ
Attack surface assessment FAQ
Scope, cost, and what happens next.
How much does an attack surface assessment cost?
Typically €2,000–5,000 depending on the size of your footprint and whether you want ongoing monitoring. Use our estimator for a tailored figure.
What is an attack surface assessment?
A discovery and analysis of everything exposed to attackers — internet-facing services, shadow IT, cloud assets, and forgotten infrastructure — prioritised by risk.
How is it different from a penetration test?
It maps what is exposed (breadth) without exploiting it; a penetration test then goes deep on the assets that matter. The assessment is the ideal precursor to testing.
Will you find shadow IT?
Yes — discovering unknown and forgotten assets is one of the most valuable outcomes, since they are often the least protected.
Do you cover cloud assets?
Yes — exposed cloud storage, services, and misconfigurations are included in the discovery.
Can this be ongoing?
Yes — attack surface management as a continuous service tracks new exposures as your estate changes.
