Outpost24 Exposure Management Platform

Unifies EASM, risk-based vulnerability management, and expert pen testing in a CTEM program.

Outpost24 Exposure Management Platform Overview

What it does

The Outpost24 Exposure Management Platform is a Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) platform that consolidates the vendor's exposure management products, external attack surface management, risk-based vulnerability management, and penetration testing, into a single interface. It continuously discovers and maps assets connected to an organization, scores findings with context-aware risk ratings tied to business impact, and adds expert manual validation, so security teams can prioritize and remediate the exposures most likely to be exploited.

How it works

External Attack Surface Management (EASM) modules build a continuously updated inventory of domains, IP addresses, cloud infrastructure, and shadow IT through passive, non-intrusive reconnaissance, without agents or credentials. The OutscanNX module scans network and cloud environments and prioritizes vulnerabilities with Farsight risk scoring, which combines real-world exploit intelligence with CVSS, EPSS, known-exploited-vulnerability data, and asset context; scanning-less snapshots flag newly disclosed vulnerabilities between scan cycles. Certified penetration testers validate findings on discovered assets to remove false positives, while leaked credential intelligence, customizable alerting, and workflow integrations with ticketing and ITSM tools drive triage and remediation.

Credentials and traction

Outpost24 is ISO/IEC 27001 certified, SOC 2 compliant, and a CREST member for penetration testing. The company was named a Niche Player in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Exposure Assessment Platforms, a Major Player in the 2025 IDC MarketScape for Worldwide Exposure Management, an Overall Leader in KuppingerCole's 2025 ASM Leadership Compass, and a Challenger and Fast Mover in the 2025 GigaOm Radar for Penetration Testing as a Service. More than 3,500 organizations use Outpost24, including Telefonica and Komplett Group.

Key Capabilities

mapped to solution categories
Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM)

Discovers assets and their exposures across the external, internal, cloud, and end-user attack surfaces, covering endpoints, network and on-premises infrastructure, identities and entitlements, hosts, containers, IoT and OT, and cloud platforms and applications, either through native discovery or by integrating third-party discovery sources, and reports vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, unmanaged assets, and compliance gaps in one inventory.

Ranks exposures by their accessibility, visibility, and exploitability combined with asset criticality, business impact, and the security controls already in place, so a medium-severity issue on a critical, reachable, unprotected service outranks a high-severity issue on an isolated or compensated one.

Confirms whether prioritized exposures are actually exploitable by running or ingesting adversarial validation results, such as breach and attack simulation or automated penetration testing delivered natively or by an integrated third-party tool, and re-ranks or closes exposures on the outcome so the queue reflects confirmed rather than theoretical risk.

Maps the discovered exposure inventory against active threat actor targeting and in-the-wild exploitation data to surface vulnerabilities under active attack.

Creates and tracks remediation tasks across teams and ticketing systems, measuring exposure reduction over time rather than simply listing open findings.

Tracks the life cycle of exposures through a centralized, aggregated view supported by automated workflows.

Generates trend reports on exposure posture (new exposure, remediated exposure, outstanding exposure by severity), in business language suitable for security program reviews.

Groups assets into business processes, applications, or protection surfaces with named owners and criticality, so each exposure management cycle is scoped to what the business must protect and exposure is assessed and reported per scope rather than across the whole estate.

Extends exposure discovery to digital assets and artifacts that external threat actors are actively abusing, such as leaked credentials, lookalike domains, exposed code, or digital supply-chain components seen on social media and the surface, deep, and dark web, natively or through a third-party feed, and folds them into the same exposure inventory and prioritization as internal findings.

Attack Surface Management (ASM)

Continuously enumerates internet-exposed assets (domains, IPs, subdomains, certificates, cloud storage, APIs) using passive DNS, certificate transparency logs, and active probing, including assets outside the official inventory.

Tracks SSL/TLS certificate expirations, newly registered lookalike domains, and subdomain takeover opportunities (dangling DNS records pointing to deprovisioned cloud services).

Ranks discovered exposures by combining exploitability signals, asset business context, and active threat intelligence to produce an actionable remediation queue.

Identifies cloud resources, SaaS applications, and exposed services deployed by business units without IT or security team visibility or approval.

Risk-Based Vulnerability Management (RBVM)

Cross-references the vulnerability inventory against live threat feeds tracking CVEs under active exploitation in the wild, surfacing vulnerabilities with confirmed attacker activity.

Incorporates asset metadata (network exposure, business criticality, data classification) into vulnerability prioritization so that a critical CVE on an isolated internal test system ranks lower than a medium CVE on an internet-facing payment server.

Assigns likelihood-of-exploitation scores using threat intelligence, vulnerability characteristics, and active exploit availability, independent of CVSS, which measures severity rather than exploitability.

Creates tickets, assigns owners, and tracks remediation progress in ITSM platforms (ServiceNow, Jira), closing the loop between finding and fix rather than producing a static report.

Continuously discovers external-facing assets (domains, IPs, cloud services, APIs, certificates) including assets deployed outside the official inventory.

Time-boxed risk acceptance workflow with documented approvals that keeps exceptions active and tracked as new scan data is ingested, rather than silently closing or re-opening findings.

Penetration Testing as a Service (PTaaS)

Initiates penetration testing engagements through a platform interface without requiring a new statement of work for each test, enabling testing at the cadence of development releases.

Delivers findings through a live client portal as testers discover them, with status, severity, and evidence, instead of a single static PDF at the end of the engagement.

Automatically re-executes test cases for specific findings after the reported remediation deadline, confirming closure without scheduling a separate engagement.
