#IICSG2019 Conference Fix It Track
Day 2 (20 Jun 2019)
2.30pm—3.15pm
@ Breakout Room 2
Abstract
At a certain point in an organization’s life, Internet-facing assets become difficult to account for. Marketing departments spin up infrastructure for campaigns – and forget about them – developers deploy test machines outside ITs purview, legacy systems are pushed to the side, and cloud deployments become commonplace. All the while the organization is exposed to an ever-growing list of threats. Attackers are constantly scanning the internet for these systems and they have a map of your external facing infrastructure, do you?
If the bug bounty programs have taught us anything, the faster you are able to assess an organization’s external footprint, the higher the chance you have of getting in before someone else. Attackers have automated their tooling and organizations cannot afford to skip this critical step in gaining insight into what they have and what they leave exposed.
