Summary

Hide ▲

Modern security teams face challenges with traditional passive internet-scan data, which quickly becomes outdated due to dynamic cloud environments and rapid deployment cycles. Continuous, automated, active reconnaissance is essential for maintaining an accurate view of the external attack surface. This approach helps detect newly exposed services, misconfigurations, and shadow IT, reducing alert fatigue and improving decision-making.
