While attack surface management (ASM) and vulnerability management (VM) serve similar objectives, they differ significantly in terms of their scope, methodologies, and approaches.
Simply put, the attack surface refers to all the possible points of entry into an IT system that a hacker or cybercriminal could exploit. ASM involves the identification, assessment, and minimization of these potential attack points. In other words, it aims to reduce the number of ways in which a system can be attacked. The more complex and interconnected an IT system is, the bigger its attack surface, and greater the chances of a cyberattack.
VM, on the other hand, involves identifying and assessing vulnerabilities (i.e., weaknesses or gaps) within an IT system that can be exploited by cybercriminals. Once these vulnerabilities are identified, they can be remediated to prevent potential attacks from causing harm. VM typically involves scanning IT systems, networks, and applications by using tools and technologies to identify security risks and gaps.
