Summary

Organizations must tailor their internal security policies to their specific risk tolerance and business context, as not all elements on an attack surface are vulnerabilities. While some industries, like SaaS, can handle frequent production releases, others face stricter regulatory requirements, necessitating more cautious security measures. To address this, flexible and resilient solutions are needed, such as the newly introduced Attack Surface Custom Policies. These policies allow security teams to efficiently validate their compliance with internal rules by using an "IF-THEN" logic system to monitor open ports and receive alerts for unauthorized changes. Surface Monitoring is essential for accessing these features, and the tool is set to expand its capabilities in the coming weeks to include scoping policies to specific domains and technologies.
