Integrate Censys with DefendOps to monitor and track your external-facing assets.
Overview
Censys is a global search engine for discovering, analyzing, and monitoring internet-connected assets and vulnerabilities. When integrated with DefendOps, Censys enables you to continuously monitor and secure your external-facing devices, providing you with real-time insights and helping you uncover potential vulnerabilities and misconfigurations in your network perimeter.
With the Censys Integration in DefendOps, you can:
Discover exposed assets: Automatically scan your external-facing devices and services, from IoT devices to databases, helping you identify and secure vulnerable assets.
Monitor security posture: Use Censys to track devices, certificates, and services that may be exposed to threats, ensuring your perimeter remains secure.
Integrate vulnerability data: Censys provides detailed data on vulnerabilities associated with your assets. This information can be directly integrated into your Vulnerability Management Platform (VMP) for easy tracking, reporting, and prioritization.
Real-time alerts: Get notified of newly discovered vulnerabilities, changes in asset configuration, or exposures that could compromise your security.
Enhance security assessments: Utilize the comprehensive data from Censys to support vulnerability assessments and improve the overall security posture of your organization.
This integration provides a unified view of your external-facing assets, helping you proactively identify and address vulnerabilities before they can be exploited by malicious actors.
