Vulnerability coordination and bug bounty platform HackerOne has announced the launch of Attack Resistance Management (ARM), a new security solution designed to increase customers’ cyber resiliency. Intended to target the root causes of attack resistance gaps, the new solution blends the security expertise of ethical hackers with asset discovery, continuous assessment, and process enhancement, the company said. The release comes as organizations continue to struggle to effectively monitor their attack surface and identify and tackle vulnerabilities.
ARM solution addresses attack resistance gap
The attack resistance gap defines the hidden vulnerabilities within an organization’s attack surface and is caused by incomplete knowledge of digital assets, insufficient testing, and a shortage of the right skills, HackerOne stated in a press release. The firm’s 2022 Attack Resistance Report discovered that nearly half of businesses lack the confidence and means to close security gaps, with almost 20% of participants stating that over half of their attack surface is unknown or not observable.
