Assessing Attack Surface Security Risks: Adding the M to ASM

This Censys blog post explains how attack surface management (ASM) enables organizations to discover and contextualize risks across Internet and cloud assets, categorizing common issues such as misconfigurations, exposures, vulnerabilities, and compromises. It recommends a risk-based prioritization approach based on exploitability, likelihood, impact, and company priorities, and highlights Censys ASM capabilities—context enrichment, severity scoring, per-asset tuning, and automated prioritization—to help teams focus remediation efforts efficiently.
