Your external exposure, checked every month

See what attackers can find about your business — before they do.

AI agents trained by AKASEC discover internet-facing assets, exposure signals and OSINT leads connected to your organization. Our specialists then validate, interpret and prioritize the findings.

The gap

Attackers can see more of your business than you think.

Most organizations do not have a complete view of what is publicly discoverable about them. Security teams rely on internal inventories. Attackers do not — they start from the outside, and they only need what you forgot.

  • Forgotten subdomains and stale DNS records
  • Shadow IT and unmanaged cloud assets
  • Exposed test and staging environments
  • Leaked references in public code
  • Third-party and supply-chain dependencies
  • Historical infrastructure still resolving

Scope

What we discover

A broad map of your externally visible footprint. The exact scope is tailored and agreed with you before any work begins.

Domains & subdomains

Root domains, subsidiaries and the sprawl of subdomains that resolve back to your organization.

DNS & certificate transparency

DNS records and CT log findings that reveal hosts, services and history you may have forgotten.

Internet-facing services

Reachable services, panels and endpoints exposed to the public internet.

Cloud & SaaS exposure

Indicators of cloud buckets, tenants and SaaS footprints tied to your brand.

Public code & repositories

References, secrets and infrastructure hints leaking through public code and repos.

Metadata & document exposure

Metadata and exposed documents that quietly disclose internal structure.

Brand, employee & org OSINT

Organization, brand and employee OSINT leads relevant to social engineering paths.

Shadow IT & forgotten environments

Test, staging and legacy environments still standing long after they were needed.

Technology fingerprinting

The stacks, versions and technologies that shape an attacker's approach.

High-risk exposure signals

The weak signals and correlations that matter most during real offensive operations.

Scope tailored per engagement · Authorized targets only

Method

We don't just list assets. We correlate them.

We look at your business the way an attacker would — then explain what we found in plain language.

Domain & DNS intelligence

Passive DNS, mail-security records (SPF, DKIM, DMARC) and certificate transparency — mapped and cross-referenced, not just listed.

Infrastructure & ownership

IP ownership, hosting, CDN and cloud attribution, with ASN and shared-infrastructure analysis to correlate assets across your estate.

Web presence & history

Archived pages and historical infrastructure reveal past pivots, retired systems and exposure that never fully went away.

People & organization

Corporate structure, filings, funding and public references — the context that shapes realistic social-engineering and access paths.

Data-leakage exposure

Breach and paste-site exposure tied to your domains — reported by count and source type only. We never handle or deliver raw passwords.

Code & secrets exposure

Public repositories, package registries and API docs surfaced for leaked keys, infrastructure hints and configuration references.

Social & brand footprint

Company pages, press coverage and employee-driven disclosures that widen the picture an attacker can assemble.

Cross-correlation

The value isn't any single finding — it's the links between them. Shared hosting, reused certificates and forgotten history are where real attack paths hide.

Lenses applied per engagement · Authorized scope only

The difference

AI speed. Human judgment. Offensive context.

AI agents accelerate discovery and correlation. AKASEC specialists decide what actually matters. That combination is what separates a curated engagement from an automated scanner.

  1. AI layer

    AI-assisted discovery

    AI agents trained by AKASEC follow OSINT trails, correlate weak signals and build a broad initial map of externally visible assets — at a scale and speed manual recon can't match.

  2. Human layer

    AKASEC validation

    Our offensive security specialists review the output by hand: removing noise, discarding false positives, confirming relevance and adding attacker context. The raw output never goes straight to you.

  3. Delivery

    Curated attack-surface report

    Each month you receive a prioritized, readable view of your real external attack surface — with impact, evidence and clear next steps. A curated report, not a scanner dump.

Why AKASEC

Built by offensive operators, not dashboard vendors.

AKASEC approaches asset discovery from an attacker's perspective. We look for the exposures and weak signals that matter during real offensive operations — not just what fits a standard scanner template.

Red team mindset

We look at your exposure the way an adversary does — for paths, not checklists.

OSINT experience

Real operational OSINT depth, not a template of automated lookups.

Technical validation

Findings are confirmed by hand before they carry your name.

Practical prioritization

We rank exposure by real risk, so you fix what matters first.

Clear reporting

Readable, evidence-backed output for CISOs and engineers alike.

Actionable next steps

Every finding comes with a recommendation and a route forward.

Deliverables

Inside your report

Everything we found, in plain language, with the riskiest items first — so you know exactly what to do next.

01

Executive summary

Unique assets discovered, anomalies flagged against baseline, and the third-party dependencies your organization relies on — at a glance.

02

Attack-surface inventory

Every validated asset — domains, IPs, certificates, services — with its resolved values, where it surfaced, and analyst notes.

03

Infrastructure ownership map

ASN and cloud attribution, shared-infrastructure analysis and cross-domain correlation that reveal how your estate hangs together.

04

Technology & email-security posture

Detected frameworks, CMS and CDN providers, plus mail-security configuration (SPF, DKIM, DMARC) and cloud attribution per subdomain.

05

Exposure & credential intelligence

Breached-credential exposure by count and source type only — never raw passwords — alongside expired-but-live certificates, open directories and developer-leaked information.

06

Guidance for active testing

A prioritized shortlist of where targeted testing pays off next — the bridge from discovery into a scoped red team or penetration test.

Note: this is not a replacement for penetration testing or red teaming. It is often the ideal first step before deeper offensive testing — and it feeds directly into scoping one.

Fit

When this is useful

If any of these sound familiar, a curated discovery engagement is likely the right starting point.

›_

Before a red team engagement

Map the external surface first, so the offensive team starts from reality — not assumptions.

›_

After mergers, acquisitions or restructuring

Inherited infrastructure and domains rarely arrive with a clean inventory. Find what came with the deal.

›_

When preparing for audits or regulatory pressure

Demonstrate a real, validated view of your external exposure ahead of scrutiny.

›_

For organizations with many domains or subsidiaries

Consolidate a sprawling, multi-brand footprint into one prioritized picture.

›_

To validate external asset management

Pressure-test your EASM tooling and inventory against an attacker's-eye view.

›_

To find forgotten or unmanaged systems

Surface shadow IT and legacy environments that never made it into any register.

›_

To support blue team detection & monitoring

Give defenders a validated map of what's exposed and worth watching.

Authorization

Controlled, authorized and curated

AKASEC performs this service only for authorized customers and agreed scopes. Any active testing or exploitation is performed only when explicitly agreed as part of a separate engagement.

Authorized customers only

We perform this service only for authorized customers, within scopes agreed in advance.

Discovery, not exploitation

The focus is external discovery, validation and prioritization — not active attack.

Testing is separate & explicit

Any active testing or exploitation happens only when explicitly agreed as a separate engagement.
