New Blog | One Microsoft: Enriching MDEASM assets with Threat Intelligence Feeds

Organizations need processes and tools such as Microsoft Defender External Attack Surface Management (MDEASM) to help with identifying and managing the points in a software system or network infrastructure that could be targeted by potential attackers. These points, often referred to as "attack vectors," are vulnerabilities or weaknesses that attackers could exploit to gain unauthorized access, compromise systems, or steal sensitive data. 

 

The External Attack Surface specifically refers to the components and interfaces of a system that are exposed to the outside world, such as public-facing applications, network services, APIs, and other entry points. These are the points that can be targeted by attackers who are trying to breach the system from outside the organization's perimeter. 

 

This blog covers how Microsoft Security can help identify threats by leveraging Microsoft Defenders External Attack Surface Management asset discovery against the Microsoft Defender Threat Intelligence feeds.
