External exposure is growing in the age of AI
Attackers don’t need to breach your network when exposure already exists.
Leaked credentials, fraudulent infrastructure and misconfigured assets give attackers everything they need. AI has compressed the time to exploit.
Infoblox Exposure Management finds what’s exposed, removes what’s malicious and acts before damage is done.
EXPOSURE MANAGEMENT BENEFITS
Why Exposure Management?

THE COMPLETE PICTURE
Exposure to action, one engine
Infoblox Exposure Management closes the full loop.
Digital Risk Protection Services detects and dismantles attacker infrastructure targeting your brand.
External Attack Surface Management discovers exposed external assets before attackers exploit them.
Supply Chain Intelligence monitors your vendors’ attack surfaces and active threats before they can become your problem.
The result: outside-in visibility, supply chain coverage and preemptive disruption.
DIGITAL RISK PROTECTION
Detect and disrupt threats to your brand and users
Digital Risk Protection Services monitors phishing campaigns, brand impersonation, credential exposure, fraudulent ads, rogue apps and data leakage across the open web, social platforms, app stores and the dark web.
AI-driven discovery analyzes over 40 million URLs daily to validate real abuse and initiate automated takedowns at scale, with clear visibility into removal status and verified outcomes.


ATTACK SURFACE MANAGEMENT
Discover every exploitable exposure, including what most tools never surface
Discover your full external footprint using passive DNS and certificate transparency logs, with no active scanning required.
External Attack Surface Management identifies CVEs, dangling CNAMEs (orphaned DNS records attackers can hijack), weak DMARC/SPF and risky open ports. Unlike most attack surface tools, it also surfaces DNS hygiene exposures and prioritizes every finding by exploitability and business impact.
KEY CAPABILITIES
Preemptive protection from threats
From discovery to remediated exposure and confirmed takedown, Infoblox Exposure Management moves faster than attackers can adapt.
Attack surface management continuously maps your external footprint without software installation or active scanning, including assets acquired through M&A or subsidiaries that internal tooling never sees. Supply chain intelligence points the Infoblox Exposure Management engine at your named vendors, delivering active threat context, credential leak monitoring and vendor exposure data to your SOC.
Digital risk protection monitors the open web, social platforms and the dark web for attackers already acting on what’s been found, tracking campaign activity before it reaches your customers or brand.
All run on the Infoblox Platform, so your exposure and attacker activity are always in the same view.
Digital Risk Protection Services (DRPS) manages the full takedown lifecycle across hosting providers, registrars, social platforms, app stores and ad networks.
Automated workflows handle notifications, follow-ups and escalations at scale, ensuring malicious infrastructure is removed consistently and verified as complete.
Every case is tracked from detection through confirmed removal, with ongoing monitoring to prevent recurrence.
Infoblox research found 95% of malicious domains appeared in only one customer environment, single-use infrastructure designed to evade shared feeds and target a single organization. DRPS is built to detect these campaigns before they cause harm.
External Attack Surface Management (EASM) findings are grouped by shared root cause, so teams address dozens of related exposures in one action instead of many separate tickets.
Each finding includes agentic guidance with mitigation, remediation and validation steps tailored to the specific exposure. Findings route to the right owners through existing SIEM and ITSM integrations, with API access for custom workflows.
CVEs are scored using EPSS and CISA KEV context, so prioritization reflects real attacker behavior rather than theoretical severity alone.
EXPOSURE MANAGEMENT FAQs
Exposure Management, explained
Learn how Infoblox Exposure Management discovers what’s exposed, removes attacker infrastructure and helps teams act before threats cause harm.
External digital risk protection (often delivered as Digital Risk Protection Services, or DRPS) focuses on identifying and disrupting threats outside the enterprise perimeter, where attackers abuse trusted brands, identities and digital assets. These risks include phishing infrastructure, brand impersonation, fraudulent ads, rogue apps and exposed credentials.
Rather than generating alerts alone, DRPS validates real threats, removes attacker infrastructure through evidence-backed takedowns and helps prevent harm before fraud or account takeover occurs. Within a broader exposure management strategy, DRPS addresses the external side of the attack surface; the goal is measurable risk reduction, not post-incident response.
External Attack Surface Management (EASM) gives organizations the same view an attacker has before launching a campaign.
EASM continuously discovers assets using passive DNS and certificate transparency logs without agents or active scanning.
What sets Infoblox apart is treating DNS hygiene as a major risk category. Misconfigurations like dangling CNAMEs, weak DMARC and SPF records, and lame delegations are scored as real exploitable exposures, and not filtered out as noise. It is a class of risk most EASM tools almost never surface. Findings are prioritized by exploit feasibility and business impact, so remediation goes where it matters most.
Supply Chain Intelligence extends outside-in exposure monitoring to your named vendors, delivering continuous compromise evidence directly to your SOC.
It monitors vendor infrastructure for exploitable CVEs and misconfigurations, leaked corporate and customer credentials on dark-web forums, active threat campaigns targeting each vendor and deep and dark web signals indicating early-stage compromise.
The goal is to answer the question defenders actually ask: Is this vendor being used against us right now? Built for SOC leaders, CTI analysts and incident responders, not procurement or GRC. Same console, same data model and same engine as EASM and DRPS.
Exposure Management takes a preemptive approach by intervening early in the attack lifecycle. Digital Risk Protection Services discovers external threats as they appear, validates real abuse using AI and initiates automated takedowns at scale.
At the same time, Protective DNS, part of Infoblox Threat Defense™, can block access to confirmed malicious destinations for managed users, limiting exposure while takedowns are completed.
Attack surface management discovers what’s exposed in your internet-facing footprint before attackers reach it.
Together, these capabilities form a continuous loop: discover exposure, disrupt active threats and block malicious destinations.
Infoblox Exposure Management brings together Infoblox and Axur to connect external threat discovery, supply chain monitoring and immediate user protection.
Digital Risk Protection Services uses Axur’s AI-driven discovery and takedowns to detect and remove phishing, fraud and credential exposure across the open web, social platforms and the dark web.
EASM maps your internet-facing footprint and prioritizes exposures by exploitability.
Supply Chain Intelligence points the full Exposure Management engine at your most critical vendors: outside-in exposure discovery, active threat monitoring and takedown capability, all focused on your supply chain.
Infoblox Threat Defense adds DNS-layer enforcement, blocking threats immediately while takedowns are completed.
