Surface Monitoring is a leading external attack surface management (EASM) product aimed at identifying, assessing, and prioritizing web vulnerabilities. This new category of cybersecurity products provides a layer of protection that was previously unavailable to organizations due to a lack of automation and tools. Surface Monitoring was conceived based on the success of a previous security product from Detectify that had been in the market since 2015.

In recent years, the industrial sector has increasingly become the target of attack for malicious actors. The reasons include newly internet-connected devices that were once air-gapped, and the immaturity of cybersecurity in many of these plants.
