External Attack Surface Management (EASM) by Qualys is a cybersecurity solution that provides an attacker's-eye view visibility into internet-facing enterprise assets and unauthorized software. The solution discovers and monitors internet-exposed assets and infrastructure across global subsidiaries, helping organizations identify up to 30% more previously unknown external-facing assets. Using patent-pending scanning technology, EASM detects exploitable vulnerabilities, identifies risky open ports, and tracks end-of-life/end-of-support software across external assets. The solution integrates with Qualys CyberSecurity Asset Management to deliver comprehensive attack surface discovery capabilities combining internal and external asset visibility, while reducing false positives from basic banner-grabbing tools by 60%.
