Blind Visibility and Exposure Analysis (BVEA)

Blind Internet footprint analysis to ensure that only the information and systems needed for business purposes are exposed to the Internet. Without assistance from the client, Illumant enumerates all identifiable Internet-facing sites, applications, networks and systems, characterizing the client’s cyber-attack surface. Also includes forum, dark web, and IRC searches to look for revealing or nefarious chatter about the client’s systems and networks. Recommendations are provided to minimize cyber-attack surface.
