Will Hexiosec ASM find Malware?

0min

Hexiosec ASM operates passively on the attack surface. The detection of malware would typically require active scanning techniques and often internal scanning, which can be more disruptive to a system. Hexiosec ASM does not specifically detect malware. However Hexiosec ASM will identify specific versions of components (e.g. nginx) and any associated vulnerabilities, which may make you vulnerable to malware. Hexiosec ASM will also mark vulnerabilities which are known to be actively exploited, the exploits attackers are more likely to be using. Alongside this, Hexiosec ASM will identify vulnerable ports, or configurations which make you vulnerable to malware or other attacks.
