External exposure assessment · 72 hours

Most companies think they know what's exposed externally. They usually don't.

In most environments we assess, ~15–20% of externally reachable assets are unknown to the internal team. We validate what's actually exploitable and show what an attacker can reach.

For business owners and technical leaders responsible for external exposure and risk.

Combined experience

Recent patterns observed across assessments:

• Public-facing service tied to internal database via forgotten API endpoint
• Staging environment indexed by search engines exposing production-like data
• Misconfigured cloud storage with partial access control — not fully public, still exploitable
• Subdomain takeover potential on assets no one internally tracks anymore
• "Low severity" issue used as entry point for full environment mapping

None of these were detected by internal teams before the assessment.

In multiple cases, similar exposure patterns led to credential access, lateral movement, or data exposure.

Why most exposure assessments fail

Enumeration ≠ understanding

Most tools stop at listing assets. They don't distinguish between dead surface, decoys, and systems that actually lead somewhere sensitive.

CVSS is not attacker logic

A medium internet-facing issue is often more dangerous than a "critical" that requires internal access. Most reports get this backwards.

No path analysis

Individual findings don't matter. What matters is how they connect — initial access, pivot, data access. Most assessments never model this.

Output nobody uses

Long reports without ownership or sequencing don't get executed. Engineering ignores them. Leadership can't act on them.

We work differently. Every finding is manually validated, tied to an attack path, and assigned a clear remediation sequence. If your current exposure report looks clean, it's likely incomplete.

No platform. No lock-in. Start with a one-time external reality check — ongoing monitoring available if you need it.

What we typically uncover

Forgotten admin panel with default credentials on non-inventoried server → direct database access in under 15 minutes
Dev API running against production data, no authentication → full customer PII exposure
Staging environment indexed by Google, linked to internal services → recon path to production infrastructure
S3 bucket with public listing revealing backup filenames and schedules → internal architecture intelligence for targeted attack

Real patterns from real assessments. In multiple cases, these led to production data exposure or privileged access.

What you actually get

01
External asset inventory

Full external footprint — domains, subdomains, IPs, cloud assets, services. Verified, not guessed.

02
Vulnerability & misconfiguration findings

Only exploitable issues prioritized. Each finding includes impact, exposure path, and fix.

03
Attack path analysis

How an attacker moves through your environment. Entry → pivot → access.

04
Compliance readiness map

Mapped to SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS — usable in audits, not just documentation.

05
Remediation plan with ownership

Fix sequence with ownership. What to do now, next, and later.

06
Executive summary

One-page summary leadership can act on immediately.

Why this matters at renewal

Cyber insurance underwriters evaluate external exposure as part of premium pricing. Most mid-market companies can't document what's visible from outside — and can't prove what they've fixed.

ExposureMark produces the evidence your broker needs: a validated external exposure assessment with a one-page underwriter risk summary and a broker-ready pack designed for underwriting conversations. Clients hand this directly to their broker at renewal.

Most companies enter renewal without this visibility.

Remote access exposed to the internet — present in ~40% of assessments. The #1 initial access vector in ransomware claims and commonly flagged in underwriting reviews.
Unknown assets no one is tracking — 15–20% of externally discoverable assets are unknown to the organization. Indicates gaps in asset management visibility.
Email authentication gaps — missing or unenforced DMARC enables domain spoofing and business email compromise. Standard question on cyber insurance applications.
Exposed admin panels and management consoles — accessible without VPN or MFA. Frequently cited in claims investigations.

How it works

Day 0

Scope

15-minute call. You give scope. We confirm boundaries and start.

Day 1–3

Assess

Manual recon + validation. We identify what is reachable and what can be used.

Day 3

Deliver

Report + underwriter summary + broker-ready pack. We explain what matters and what to fix first.

Day 30

Recheck

Automatic rescan showing what changed. No action required — we send the delta.

Questions

Scanners enumerate. They don't interpret, prioritize by real-world exploitability, or map attack chains. We do all three manually, then tell you what to fix first and why.

No. We work from the outside only — same perspective as an attacker. You give us domains and IP ranges. We handle everything else.

Good. Internal teams build defenses. We show them what's still visible from outside — assets and paths they typically don't have time or perspective to check.

Multi Domain and Complex tiers include compliance mapping. Findings are aligned to specific controls so your auditor sees exactly where gaps are.

Yes. Multi Domain and Complex tiers include a one-page underwriter risk summary and broker forward pack — designed for your broker to submit at renewal. The 30-day recheck builds a documented evidence trail of your external posture over time.

After the scoping call. Most reports are delivered within 72 hours.

Find out what's actually exposed.

We'll show you what you're missing — or confirm there's nothing critical.

Most teams request this around security reviews, audit pressure, insurance renewal, or after an incident. Earlier is cheaper.

Every assessment includes a 30-day recheck showing what changes.
