Exposed asset awareness
Helps identify internet-facing assets tied to your organization or a vendor, with context such as domains, publicly reachable services, hosting details, and certificate health.
External Attack Surface Management
See what's exposed across your external attack surface
VeriGRC helps teams review internet-facing assets and external exposure context — including certificates, DNS, open ports, and exposed services — as review-ready findings that can inform vendor risk and security ratings.
Exposure you can see — and act on
External exposure often starts with what is reachable from the outside: domains, subdomains, exposed services, certificate status, and DNS configuration. VeriGRC brings those external signals together as findings against the assets they affect, so teams can review public-facing exposure as part of the broader third-party risk workflow.
Built for distributed programs
External exposure is not confined to one network
Assets, vendors, and exposures aren't confined to one network or region. VeriGRC helps teams review internet-facing assets and external exposure context across public-facing environments and vendor relationships — brought together in one connected view.

What you can do
External exposure context and review-ready findings that can inform the rest of your vendor risk picture.
External exposure context
Adds public exposure context to discovered assets, such as observed services, certificate status, DNS configuration, and publicly available vulnerability references where applicable.
Certificate, DNS, and service exposure
Shows external signals such as SSL/TLS certificate health, DNS configuration, open ports, and exposed services — the publicly reachable details that help teams understand external exposure.
Domain and DNS context
Shows domain and DNS-related context alongside other external findings, helping teams review public-facing exposure without treating it as a separate investigation workflow.
Review-ready findings
Organizes external findings with supporting context so teams can review what changed, understand why it matters, and decide the next step.
Routed for follow-up
Findings can be routed into the right review workflow, helping teams track follow-up, ownership, and status without treating the result as an automated decision.
From signal to action
VeriGRC brings external exposure together as findings your team can review and act on.
- 1
Assets and signals are surfaced
VeriGRC surfaces internet-facing assets and the external exposure context tied to them — certificate and DNS health, open ports, and exposed services — as findings against the assets they affect.
- 2
Findings are organized for review
Findings are organized with supporting context so teams can see what changed and understand why it matters before deciding the next step.
- 3
Findings route into your workflow
Findings can be routed into the right review workflow for follow-up and ownership, and roll up into the affected vendor's risk picture — for people to review and decide on, not an automated action.
Exposure in the vendor risk picture
External exposure is not a separate report — it is one input into a vendor's broader risk picture. External exposure context can inform a vendor's risk picture alongside assessment results and security ratings. So when a vendor's external posture changes, it shows up where your team already looks — not in a tool nobody opens.
Connected to the rest of your program
External exposure is one lens on vendor risk, not the whole picture. EASM findings can inform your third-party risk reviews, contribute to vendor security ratings, and support risk-register decisions with external exposure context.
External attack surface management — frequently asked questions
What is external attack surface management (EASM)?
External attack surface management is the practice of discovering and keeping visibility into the internet-facing assets and exposures an organization presents to the outside world. VeriGRC brings internet-facing assets and their external exposure context — certificate and DNS health, open ports, and exposed services — together as review-ready findings that can inform your vendor risk picture.
What does VeriGRC's EASM surface?
It surfaces internet-facing assets and the external exposure context tied to them — certificate, DNS, and exposed-service findings, and publicly available vulnerability references where applicable — organized as review-ready findings.
How does VeriGRC help teams review exposure findings?
VeriGRC organizes external findings with supporting context — what the finding is, which asset it affects, and what changed — so your team can review each finding and decide the next step.
How does EASM connect to vendor risk and security ratings?
External exposure context can inform a vendor's broader risk picture alongside assessment results and security ratings, so a change in external posture shows up where your team already works.
Can EASM findings feed into a review workflow?
Yes. Findings can be routed into the right review workflow so teams can track follow-up, ownership, and status. VeriGRC surfaces findings for people to review and decide on — it does not treat results as automated decisions.
How does EASM fit the rest of my GRC program?
Because the platform shares one data model, EASM findings connect to third-party risk, contribute to vendor security ratings, and can support risk-register decisions with external exposure context — without manual exports.
