Forrester Webinar: Profiles in Threat Hunting

With the explosion of cloud, IoT, and connected assets on the internet, attack surfaces are expanding faster than ever. The risks to your organisation are continuously shifting; misconfigurations and the like mean that assets are exposed and available for anyone to find. The challenge is who finds these exposed assets first – you or the attackers? Your security team needs an advantage. 

Attack Surface Management (ASM) helps our customers quickly find exposed assets across the cloud and Internet, prioritising the most critical risks to the organisation. But not all solutions are created equally. The ability to automatically detect new exposures saves time for the security team when understanding the entire attack surface; while a prioritised set of accurate risks coupled with practical guidance for fast remediation empowers the team to focus on fixing the problems that are actually going to get you breached.

Did you know that during our research, Censys observed 105,497 total services running what would become a Log4j vulnerability target? Of those, 102,060 services were vulnerable to this attack. Tune in to Episode Three of our four-part webinar series in which Research Scientist Emily Austin dives into the internet's response to major vulnerabilities such as:

- The “Log4Shell” vulnerability that was disclosed in the Log4j logging library
- A critical RCE vulnerability in GitLab Server (CVE-2021-22205)
- An OGNL Injection vulnerability in Confluence that led to Confluence instances disappearing entirely from the public internet (CVE-2021-26084)

Episode Three: The Internet's Response to Major Vulnerabilities

The Censys Research Team evaluated the presence of various risks and vulnerabilities across random samples of 2.2 million hosts from November 30, 2021, and 2 million hosts from roughly half a year later on June 10, 2022, all drawn from our Internet-wide scan data. In Episode 2 of our four-part webinar series reviewing the Censys 2022 State of the Internet Report, Research Scientist, Emily Austin and Security Researcher, Himaja Motheram will dive into the top five Censys-visible risks that were discovered from this evaluation.

Episode Two: The Top Five Censys Visible Risks

The Internet has revolutionized how we communicate, share information, and do business. Digital security is no longer a concern just for the Computing and Information Technology space, as organizations across industries have a growing digital footprint. Understanding the sprawl of your public-facing assets, or your “attack surface,” is more pressing. Without this meaningful visibility, protecting your digital systems is a guessing game. 

In the 2022 State Of the Internet Report, authored by the Censys Research Team, we examine the Internet through several lenses, such as the Internet as a whole and its attack surface, the Internet’s response to major vulnerabilities, organizations on the Internet, and what our customers and security experts have to say about our findings. 

Join us for part one of our four part webinar series where Emily Austin, Research Scientist at Censys, will spend the hour providing a high-level overview of: 
- Mitigation strategies and the three distinct types of behavior in response to vulnerability disclosures
- The percentage of misconfiguration risks that were observed across the internet and the varying data that was uncovered with it 
- Attack surface samples that were ran on 37 large organizations and the data that was disclosed including the various domain registrars and hosting providers
