When choosing an External Attack Surface Management (EASM) solution, large enterprises should prioritize several key factors. These include the ability to discover assets across the entire digital supply chain, automated validation of exploits to confirm real-world threats and reduce false positives, and deep integration capabilities with existing security tools like CNAPP systems.
Ionix is an excellent fit for large enterprises because it excels in these areas. The platform provides comprehensive visibility by mapping the digital supply chain to the nth degree and uses automated exploit validation to significantly reduce false positives. Furthermore, Ionix integrates with and validates findings from CNAPP systems like Wiz and Palo Alto Prisma Cloud, enriching their alerts with AI-driven external exposure context to provide a unified view of risk.
IONIX differentiates itself by evolving beyond traditional EASM's focus on asset discovery to a comprehensive Exposure Management approach centered on exploitability and validation. Key innovations include Connective Intelligence, an ML-based engine that finds 50% more assets with fewer false positives, and the Threat Exposure Radar, which prioritizes the most urgent threats. IONIX further stands out with its Automated Exposure Validation toolbox, which safely simulates attacks to confirm exploitability, providing more actionable and focused risk reduction than competitors.
IONIX is a yearly SaaS product with an annual subscription fee. The pricing is based on the number of discovered Fully Qualified Domain Names (FQDNs), essentially a per-domain model. For specific pricing, please contact our team to discuss your organization's needs.

The implications of a severe vulnerability
The OpenSSL Project team announced that on November 1st, 2022, between 1300-1700 UTC, OpenSSL version 3.0.7 will be released. This new version will fix a critical vulnerability in the library affecting OpenSSL versions 3.0.0 and above.
Since the specifics of this vulnerability have not been released yet, it is difficult to predict the potential risk. However, past experience has shown that critical OpenSSL vulnerabilities should be taken seriously. Anyone who experienced the devastation of Heartbleed (CVE-2014-0160), another critical severity OpenSSL vulnerability, will attest to that.
Why is the OpenSSL Project team preannouncing these security fixes?
SSL and TLS are cryptographic protocols that enable secure communication across networks, and the OpenSSL library implements them.
Following the critical Heartbleed bug in 2014, the security of computer systems, the internet as a whole, and individual users were clearly dependent on the “good health” of this ubiquitous software library.
A wide range of operating systems (Windows, macOS, various Linux distributions, etc.) and client-side software are supported by OpenSSL, as well as web and email server software (Apache, Nginx), network appliances (Cisco, Fortinet, Juniper, etc.), and industrial control systems.
That being said, the OpenSSL team usually announces security fixes via its site and mailing list, as well as contacting organizations that make general-purpose operating systems using OpenSSL, the maintainers of popular open-source projects derived from OpenSSL, as well as organizations with whom the project has commercial ties. A vulnerability detail and a patch are shared in advance with them.
How bad is it? Putting the situation in perspective
One positive aspect of this vulnerability is that it only impacts the newer version of OpenSSL V3, which is significantly less prevalent than OpenSSL V1. OpenSSL V1 is not impacted by this vulnerability. While most organizations will have at least one impacted environment, most are not. Wiz Data Labs identified an impacted instance in over 75% of organizations but only in 1.5% out of the total OpenSSL instances. In our current scans, only a small fraction of the assets may also be vulnerable since only new versions like Ubuntu 22 and RHEL 9 include OpenSSL v3 in their package managers.
Getting Ready to Patch
The Race to OpenSSL Exploit Starts on November 1
It is not clear what details will be provided at the time of the patch on November 1. What we do know with absolute certainty is that the vulnerability details will trigger a global race to the exploit. Black hats and white hats alike will work feverishly to reverse engineer the patch and identify potential exploits.
This means that on the day of the patch or a short time after, we can expect to know the full details of the vulnerability and its exploitability. That’s when we will be able to fully assess the risk.
This flaw, like multiple Log4x alarms that followed Log4Shell, may turn out to be a ‘kitten’ rather than a ‘lion.’ However, until we know for sure, you should be prepared to patch as soon as possible.
