Attack Surface Management (ASM) is crucial for organisations as it offers comprehensive visibility into external-facing digital assets and helps identify potential vulnerabilities. By continuously monitoring for emerging threats, ASM enables proactive risk management and reduces the risk of cyberattacks. It helps uncover unknown or shadow assets, such as outdated servers or misconfigured systems, minimising blind spots that could expose the organisation to risks.

Additionally, ASM ensures regulatory compliance by keeping systems secure and reducing the likelihood of breaches. With real-time monitoring, it helps organizations respond quickly to incidents, mitigating human errors and safeguarding critical data. This approach not only strengthens cybersecurity but also reduces costs associated with security incidents and enhances overall operational resilience. 

A firewall with Threat Surface Management (TSM) is essential for modern cybersecurity because it provides more than just traditional perimeter defense. TSM allows the firewall to continuously monitor and assess all exposed assets, applications, and services in an organization’s network. This comprehensive visibility helps identify vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, or unauthorised assets that attackers could exploit.

By integrating TSM into a firewall, organisations can proactively reduce their attack surface by identifying and addressing security gaps in real-time. This ensures stronger protection against emerging threats, minimises the risk of breaches, and enhances overall network security, making the firewall a more dynamic and adaptive defense solution.

GajShield’s firewall leverages Real-Time Standard Port Management to enhance Threat Surface Management (TSM) by offering dynamic visibility and control over network traffic. This feature allows the firewall to intelligently monitor and manage traffic through standard ports, identifying anomalies or unauthorised activities that could pose a security risk.

By continuously inspecting the data flow across these ports in real-time, GajShield’s firewall helps detect potential vulnerabilities or threats before they can be exploited. This proactive management ensures that exposed attack surfaces are minimised, keeping the network more secure and resilient against both known and emerging threats. The combination of real-time port monitoring and TSM makes GajShield a powerful defense mechanism in reducing an organisation's overall attack surface.
