Pricing is based on the number of asset types brought in during the discovery function of the service. The price per asset type is \u20ac0.010\/day. Asset types are IP addresses or domains that the organization has approved in its inventory in the service. The pricing can be considered quite moderate. A 30-day free trial is also available, after which it automatically transitions to monthly billing from the Azure subscription.     <br> <br>The actual monitoring of the external attack surface begins by enabling the discovery function, where seeds are selected, i.e., which asset types are included in the scan. For example, the discovery function initially includes the domains and public IP addresses used by the organization. <\/p>\n<p> In addition to domains and IP addresses, seeds can include:<br>\u2022 Host names<br>\u2022 Email addresses<br>\u2022 ASN numbers<br>\u2022 Certificates<br>\u2022 Whois organization<\/p>\n<p>Once the targets have been selected for the discovery function and it is initiated, it takes a day or two before results start appearing in the portal.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-be92e04 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"be92e04\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-80d3b0b\" data-id=\"80d3b0b\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9505115 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"9505115\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Dashboards<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-51b69e7 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"51b69e7\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-a3f4404\" data-id=\"a3f4404\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6186132 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6186132\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>For reviewing results, the EASM service offers various ready-made dashboard views, which Microsoft has added as the service has developed.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>Attack Surface Summary<\/strong> dashboard presents the key findings from the environment. It provides an overview of the organization&#8217;s attack surface and the asset types it includes, highlighting potential vulnerabilities by severity (high, medium, low). The dashboard also offers key information about the infrastructure that constitutes the organization&#8217;s attack surface.  <\/p>\n<p> <br>The <strong>Security Posture<\/strong> dashboard helps organizations understand the maturity of their security based on metadata derived from asset types. It consists of technical and non-technical practices, processes, and controls. The dashboard provides information on CVE vulnerabilities, open communication ports, and SSL certificate configurations, among other things.  <\/p>\n<p> <br>The <strong>GDPR Compliance<\/strong> dashboard highlights key compliance risks based on GDPR requirements. The dashboard provides visibility into the state of the organization&#8217;s websites, potential SSL certificate issues, exposed personal data (PII), login protocols in use, and cookie compliance. <\/p>\n<p> <br>The <strong>OWASP Top 10<\/strong> dashboard highlights asset types that are vulnerable according to the OWASP list of the most critical web application security risks. On the dashboard, organizations can quickly identify asset types with inadequate access control, encryption errors, injections, incorrect security configurations, and other critical risks defined by OWASP. <\/p>\n<p> <br>The <strong>CWE Top 25 Software Weaknesses<\/strong> dashboard is based on the annual Top 25 Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) list published by MITRE. CWEs represent the most common and impactful software weaknesses that are easily discoverable and exploitable. <\/p>\n<p> <br>The <strong>CISA Known Exploits<\/strong> dashboard shows all asset types potentially affected by vulnerabilities that have led to known exploits according to CISA definitions.<\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2108\" src=\"https:\/\/aboveit.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1004\" height=\"424\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aboveit.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image.png 1004w, https:\/\/aboveit.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image-300x127.png 300w, https:\/\/aboveit.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image-768x324.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1004px) 100vw, 1004px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Example image of the Attack Surface Summary dashboard<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-5981c00 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"5981c00\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-2e01f54\" data-id=\"2e01f54\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-14b6296 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"14b6296\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Conclusion<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-704bfee elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"704bfee\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-37d19f9\" data-id=\"37d19f9\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d895c53 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d895c53\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Microsoft Defender EASM is easy to deploy and, based on our experiences, it has provided quite useful information about the target organization where we have been able to use it.
