| RiskProfiler | RiskProfiler IntroductionRiskProfiler is an AI-powered external threat exposure management platform designed to help organizations identify, prioritize, and remediate cyber risks that exist outside their traditional security perimeter. Powered by its proprietary KnyX AI, the platform unifies external intelligence, dark web monitoring, breachintelligence, brand protection, and third-party risk insights into a single, actionable view. Unlike siloed tools, RiskProfiler correlates threat signals across multiple domains to provide context-driven, prioritized intelligence, enabling security teams to focus on risks that truly impact the business.External Intelligence & Attack Surface Visibility RiskProfiler continuously maps and monitors an organization’s external attack surface—including internet-facing assets, cloud environments, third-party integrations, and digital footprints. - Discovers unknown and shadow IT assets - Maps attack paths from an adversary’s perspective - Correlates exposures across domains, vendors, and identities - Prioritizes risks based on exploitability and business impact By combining external attack surface management (EASM) with AI-driven analytics, RiskProfiler transforms fragmented signals into actionable external intelligence.Dark Web Monitoring & Threat Intelligence RiskProfiler provides continuous deep and dark web monitoring to uncover threats before they are weaponized. - Monitors TOR, underground forums, encrypted channels, and marketplaces - Detects stolen credentials, malware activity, and leaked data - Identifies early signs of targeted attacks and threat actor activity - Correlates dark web data with internal assets and identities The platform leverages agentic AI to filter noise, enrich data, and assign severity, ensuring teams can respond quickly to high-risk exposures.Breach Intelligence & Exposure Detection RiskProfiler delivers real-time breach intelligence, identifying compromised data across external sources. - Detects credentials from stealer logs, combolists, and breach dumps - Maps exposed data to affected systems, users, and vendors - Provides context such as breach origin, severity, and attack pathways - Enables rapid validation and incident response By linking breach data to business context, RiskProfiler helps organizations contain threats early and prevent account takeovers or lateral movement.Brand Protection & Digital Risk Protection RiskProfiler’s Brand Risk Protection capabilities safeguard organizations from digital impersonation and fraud. - Detects phishing domains, fake apps, and impersonation attempts - Monitors social media, marketplaces, and underground forums - Tracks identity misuse, fake accounts, and scams - Automates takedown workflows with evidence and confidence scoring Its AI-driven brand intelligence enables organizations to protect customers, executives, and digital identity at scale.Vendor Risk Intelligence & Supply Chain Security Modern enterprises rely heavily on third parties, increasing exposure across the supply chain. RiskProfiler provides vendor risk intelligence to manage these dependencies. - Monitors vendor breaches and external exposures - Maps third-party risk to internal assets and business impact - Identifies cascading risks across the supply chain - Prioritizes remediation based on exploitability By correlating vendor signals with attack surface and threat intelligence, RiskProfiler enables proactive third-party risk management.AI Exposure Management As organizations adopt AI technologies, new risks emerge. RiskProfiler helps manage AI-related external exposures by identifying vulnerabilities introduced through AI systems and integrations. - Detects exposed AI services, APIs, and data pipelines - Identifies misconfigurations and unauthorized access points - Monitors external AI-driven attack vectors - Prioritizes risks using AI-driven attack path analysis Through continuous monitoring and correlation, RiskProfiler ensures that AI adoption does not expand the organization’s attack surface unchecked.Unified, AI-Driven Risk Prioritization At its core, RiskProfiler’s KnyX AI correlates signals across all modules—external assets, dark web intelligence, vendor risk, and brand exposure—to deliver: - Context-rich risk scoring - Attack path visualization - Automated prioritization - Clear remediation guidance This reduces alert fatigue and enables security teams to focus on high-impact threats with confidence. | $500K | Angel | Jan 04, 2023 |  |
