Abstract
A method for managing an attack surface is provided. The method comprises obtaining network traffic logs for the domain, correlating the logs to threats, mapping a flow of network traffic between malicious indicators and host identifiers, determining an exposed set of host identifiers, determining host attributes and indicator attributes of hosts identified in the exposed set, providing the exposed set and the attributes as input to a prioritization model, receiving prioritization scores as output from the prioritization model, and generating a prioritized attack surface data structure based on the scores. An interface is configured to modify a display based on the prioritized attack surface data structure.
