Spakto continuously maps every internet-exposed asset, forgotten domain, misconfigured service, and shadow infrastructure — giving you the attacker's view of your external attack surface before threat actors exploit it.

External Attack Surface Management

Your biggest risks are
assets you forgot existed.

Traditional inventory lists what IT manages. Spakto EASM maps what the internet can see — shadow IT, expired subdomains, leaked credentials, and misconfigured cloud services no one monitors. Attackers run recon 24/7. Now you do too.

Discovery Coverage

Everything visible
to an attacker.

Six attack surface categories. Every asset discoverable from the internet — whether you know it exists or not.

Domains & DNS847 ASSETS TRACKED

Continuous DNS enumeration using certificate transparency logs, passive DNS replication, zone transfer attempts, and brute-force permutation — discovering every resolvable hostname under your apex domains.

CT Log Monitoring
cert-manager.io, crt.sh, Facebook CT — zero-day subdomain detection

Attacker Reconnaissance Simulation

What attackers see
before they strike.

This is the actual recon playbook attackers run against organizations. Spakto runs it first, continuously — so you find exposures hours before threat actors do.

Passive Recon — Key Findings
847 subdomains via certificate transparency logs
dev.internal.acme.com — resolves, unmonitored
old-vpn.acme.com — last SSL renewal: 47 days ago
stage-api.acme.com — staging environment, internet-exposed
3 CNAME records pointing to deprovisioned S3 buckets
Spakto finds this before attackers reach 0 – 30 min

How It Works

Continuous internet recon
on your behalf.

Step 1 / 4

Seed

Define your known starting points

  • Input your known apex domains, IP ranges, ASN numbers, and company names
  • No agents, no firewall rules, no internal network access required
  • Works from a single domain — discovery expands automatically
  • M&A mode: add target company name and let EASM discover everything

EASM vs Traditional Asset Inventory

Inventory shows what you manage.
EASM shows what attackers see.

Your IT inventory scores 100% — 5 of 5 known assets are healthy. Meanwhile attackers find 307 more assets you never knew existed. Compliance ≠ security.

Threat Intelligence

Real-time threat signals
from 6 intelligence feeds.

Spakto aggregates live signals across certificate transparency, breach databases, dark web feeds, passive DNS, and code repositories — correlating everything to your attack surface in real-time.

Reconnaissance Techniques

8 recon methods.
All running continuously.

These are the exact techniques professional threat actors use to map your infrastructure. Spakto runs all 8 simultaneously — giving you attacker-equivalent reconnaissance coverage before they do.

Certificate TransparencyPASSIVE

Every SSL/TLS certificate issued anywhere on the internet is logged publicly in CT logs. Spakto monitors these logs in real-time, discovering new subdomains seconds after their certificate is issued — before the DNS even propagates.

Security Impact

Discovers 60–80% of all subdomains — including internal names leaked via wildcard SAN fields

Sample Findings
dev-internal.acme.com via Let's Encrypt CT log (4h ago)
staging-api.acme.com — wildcard cert SAN leaks 12 subdomains
legacy-erp.acme.co.uk — expired cert on forgotten subdomain

Use Cases

Who uses External
Attack Surface Management.

From SOC teams needing real-time alerts to M&A advisors assessing acquisition targets — Spakto gives every security role the external attacker view they've been missing.

SecOps teams use Spakto EASM as their continuous external watchdog — replacing quarterly pen tests and manual surface reviews with an always-on attacker-perspective feed that integrates directly into existing SOC workflows.

Key Capabilities
  • Instant Slack / PagerDuty / Jira alerts when new exposure appears
  • New subdomain with open admin panel — alerted within 4 minutes
  • Credential leak in GitHub triggers automatic asset correlation
  • SIEM integration: findings as structured events with IOC context

We found a Jenkins instance with default credentials on a subdomain we didn't know existed. It had been there for 11 months.
