Smarter security for lean security teams

AI-powered insights help you prioritize what matters most. Respond faster and reduce risk without adding noise.

UpGuard is a very handy tool for monitoring our attack surface and effectively categorizing potential attacks based on severity. The automated reports by UpGuard helped us swiftly identify and respond to threats, enabling us to safeguard our systems.

Capabilities

AI Threat Analyst. Instant context so your team focuses on real threats.

Stop drowning in security alerts. The AI Threat Analyst automatically evaluates incoming signals, dismissing 68% of noise. Instead of forcing your team to waste hours investigating false positives, UpGuard translates complex risk data into plain English right out of the box.

External Attack Surface Management. Know your full digital footprint.

Point-in-time scans miss what changes in between. UpGuard scans your internet-facing assets daily, surfacing hidden subdomains, shadow IT, and misconfigured cloud resources as soon as they appear. We then fingerprint what’s running on each asset and check it against known vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and open ports.

Data Leak Detection. Find your exposed data before attackers do.

A single exposed customer database, contract, or internal document can trigger the same fines, lawsuits, and lost trust as a full-scale breach. UpGuard scans open, deep, and dark web sources for your organization’s exposed PII, internal documents, and proprietary data, so you find it before regulators, customers, or attackers do.

Dark Web Monitoring. Detect threats across underground markets, forums, and channels.

Stolen credentials and corporate data rarely stay hidden. They get listed, sold, and traded across underground marketplaces, dark web forums, and encrypted chat channels long before an attacker uses them. UpGuard monitors these venues around the clock for your organization’s stolen identities and leaked assets, giving your team the context to act before initial access brokers sell your perimeter to the next buyer.

Brand Protection. Stop domain impersonation, phishing infrastructure, app store and social media fraud.

Attackers target more than your infrastructure; they target your customers and executives. UpGuard shuts down brand risks early, giving your team the head start needed to neutralize attacks before your users ever click a link.

Executive Reporting. Prove your security posture in minutes.

Security leaders don’t have time to build complex spreadsheets to justify their budget. UpGuard removes that layer of manual work by generating boardroom-ready reports in a single click. Clearly communicate risk-reduction trends and show leadership exactly how you are reducing your external exposure.

Connect your internal and external risk

UpGuard Breach Risk integrates with Vendor Risk, Trust Exchange, and User Risk to provide a single view of your internal and external risk. Risk Automations pushes that data directly into the ticketing, SIEM, and SOAR tools you already use, including Jira, ServiceNow, and Slack, so findings appear as tickets and alerts within existing workflows rather than another dashboard to check. With 400+ native integrations and a Universal Connector Node for any open API, you connect your stack with no custom development or engineering overhead.

Because there is a score that we need to focus on, resources are allocated accordingly. All risks including the low hanging fruits are addressed.

The Context Gap

The Context Gap

Investigating alerts across your security operations is par for the course. But when your team spends more time hunting for context than actually neutralizing threats, it’s no longer just a time drain—it’s a critical exposure gap.
