network-exposure

To assess firewall rule gaps and segmentation weaknesses, analyze network scan data, firewall rule exports, and topology information to enumerate internet-facing services and open ports. This process identifies potential lateral movement enablers and misconfigurations in your security posture.

Network exposure scoring classifies the risk level of open ports and running services to evaluate infrastructure security posture. You need it during cloud security configuration reviews to detect accidentally exposed database ports or overly permissive access rules.

Analyzing open ports and internet-facing services requires enumerating running services and evaluating firewall rules for weaknesses. By mapping these against network topology information, you identify segmentation weaknesses that could enable unauthorized lateral movement.

Yes, network exposure analysis applies to both on-premise and cloud environments. A security architect can scan cloud security groups and on-premise firewall rules simultaneously to identify exposed database ports and overly permissive access rules across the infrastructure.

Comprehensive network exposure risk assessment requires network scan data, firewall rule exports, and network topology information. These inputs allow the tool to enumerate internet-facing services, identify open ports, and detect segmentation weaknesses accurately.

The best way to identify exposed database ports is to run an automated network exposure analysis against your security groups and firewall rules. This evaluates open ports and running services, classifying risk levels and flagging overly permissive access rules.
