These attacks are increasingly being fueled by geopolitical tension and reveal how clever attackers have become in evolving to remain undetected — using techniques such as lateral movement, island hopping and counter incident response to stay invisible. Join our discussion on the latest in threat intelligence including: The most prevalent ransomware and commodity malware families during the past year. Why we're seeing increases in nation-state cyberattacks.

Penetration testers can only assess the attack surface they can see. Attack Surface Detector is a set of open source tools that can identify web application attack surface through static code analysis, making the data easy to leverage in dynamic testing. Penetration testers can also highlight differences in attack surface between two different versions of an application.
