CyCognito

Overview

CyCognito provides an external attack surface management (EASM) platform designed to identify, prioritize, and remediate external cyber exposures. The platform aims to give organizations an attacker's perspective of their internet-facing assets to proactively manage risks. CyCognito focuses on continuous discovery, validation, and remediation of critical exposures across an organization's digital footprint.

Key Features

• Seedless Discovery — Automatically identifies an organization's full external footprint from its name, including unknown assets and shadow IT.
• Continuous Monitoring — Provides daily scans to maintain an up-to-date inventory and account for new risks and exposures.
• Autonomous Pentesting — Offers full-scale autonomous testing with over 100,000 testing modules, covering diverse weaknesses and attack paths.
• Risk Scoring — Prioritizes risks by aligning exploit data with business impact to highlight critical issues.
• Owner-linked Workflows — Identifies asset owners to delegate tasks and track remediation efforts across integrated platforms.
• Guided Remediation Steps — Provides clear, detailed instructions tailored to each issue for efficient resolution.
• Autonomous Validation — Automatically checks and confirms remediation, addressing tickets closed before problems are fully solved.

Who It's For

CyCognito is designed for security teams, CISOs, and IT security and risk management professionals in leading global enterprises. It caters to organizations needing comprehensive visibility and continuous validation of their external attack surface, including those with complex infrastructures, third-party assets, and cloud environments. The platform supports use cases across EASM, continuous security testing, CAASM, vulnerability management, CNAPP, and AppSec.

Notable Strengths

CyCognito's strength lies in its "Zero Input Discovery" capability, which maps an organization's full external footprint without requiring seed data or asset lists. The platform also offers autonomous pentesting and continuous validation, allowing for the identification and confirmation of exploitable risks at scale. Its risk prioritization combines validated findings, business context, and threat intelligence to focus remediation efforts on the most critical issues.
