ORGANIZATIONAL MAPPING

Cyber defense starts with knowing exactly who you are.

Large organizations are complex and dynamic, so security teams often don’t have visibility on the full structure. SixMap maps out your organizational DNA to show you all the entities and derivatives that you’re responsible for defending.

Your organization is always changing

Acquisitions, dispositions, product launches, new business units, and other factors lead to continual organizational shifts, creating challenges for cybersecurity teams. SixMap reveals your complete organization, so growth never outpaces security.

Know thyself with organization mapping

SixMap’s organization mapping approach improves operational efficiency and helps your team reduce risk, all without additional effort from you or your team.

Every organization is truly unique

Each organization evolves differently. SixMap maps out your organization’s unique structure and focuses on defending your organization as a whole– not just your networks and IT assets.

Know who you are and what you need to protect

Most exposure management tools focus exclusively on your networks and IT assets. SixMap takes a strategic approach that starts with mapping your structure and focuses on defending your organization as a whole.

Proprietary & OSINT Sources

  • Proprietary business intelligence partners
  • Dozens of OSINT sources and feeds
  • Automation with experts in the loop for assuarance

All Entities Mapped

  • Identifies subsidiaries, business units, holdings, shells, etc.
  • All entities are inventoried within a structured hierarchy
  • Organizational graphs make the structure clear at a glance

Discovery From Each Entity

  • Every entity is a starting point for host discovery
  • Uncovers more digital assets than network-first approaches
  • All assets discovered are assigned to their rightful entity

Compartmentalized Data

  • Every IP and domain tied to the entity that owns it
  • Automatically structured data for easier management
  • Delivers clarity that scales across the largest organizations

Role-Based Access Controls

  • Group security teams have a centralized view of the org
  • Regional or subsidiary teams see only the data they need
  • Simple adherence to the principle of least privilege

“Out of thousands of Internet-facing assets, SixMap was able to automatically pinpoint the most pressing vulnerabilities that required immediate action based on quantifying the risk by correlating the threat actors and exploitable vulnerabilities. We’re glad they have partnered with AWS to deliver value to their customers.”

Frequently asked questions

How is SixMap’s solution deployed? Does it require agents?

SixMap is an agentless SaaS solution. It does not require any installation, downloads, or agents. The product UI can be accessed through any web browser and the data can be ingested via RESTful APIs and webhooks. 

How does SixMap’s discovery process work?

SixMap’s discovery procedure has two main components: our unique mapping methodology and 6Gen, our core technology. SixMap’s methodology begins by mapping out an organization’s structure, finding all subsidiaries, holding companies, shell companies, and other legal entities that belong to the parent organization globally. Each of these entities serves as a starting point for the asset discovery process, which uncovers all networks, IP addresses, and domains.

6Gen, SixMap’s computational mapping algorithm, is unique in that it can detect hosts across both the IPv4 and IPv6 address spaces. SixMap uses 6Gen, along with other data sources like WHOIS and DNS records, to provide a complete, accurate, and up-to-date inventory of all your external assets. This discovery process is silent, safe, and non-intrusive.

Many exposure management tools are noisy and may cause disruption to systems or applications. How does SixMap avoid these challenges?

SixMap’s host discovery and exposure assessment processes are fast, efficient, silent, and completely safe. The SixMap platform does not pose any risk to the confidentiality, integrity, or availability of your organization’s assets. SixMap does not run any intrusive tests or exploit scripts, so there is no activity that might be considered dangerous or risky.

Does SixMap integrate with the other tools in my security stack?

Yes. SixMap offers several RESTful APIs and webhooks that make it easy to ingest the data into any other tools in your environment. All licenses include access to the APIs and webhooks at no additional cost.

How is SixMap different from similar products on the market?

SixMap has 3 major differentiators. First, SixMap begins by truly getting to know an organization’s DNA before running technical processes. The organization mapping process identifies all legal entities that belong to a single parent organization, including all subsidiaries, holding companies, etc. On average, we find 5-10x more entities than what’s known to major business intelligence firms. 

Second, SixMap’s host discovery process uses 6Gen, a proprietary technology, to uncover all IP addresses and hosts across both the IPv4 and IPv6 spaces. Other tools on the market have very limited discovery capabilities in the IPv6 space, possibly leaving some assets exposed and unmanaged. While many security teams think they do not use IPv6, we almost always find some IPv6 addresses in use.

Third, SixMap’s exposure assessment inspects all 65,535 ports on every host, during every assessment. Most other tools check the top 1,000 to 5,000 most commonly-used ports, which fails to detect exposed services on high ports and creates risk. SixMap finds 7-9% more exposures by assessing all ports, on each host, every single time we run an assessment.

How is SixMap different from other exposure management tools?

Legacy tools stop at fragments — partial scans, incomplete inventories, and misattributions. SixMap goes further, mapping the entire organization across IPv4 and IPv6, tying every host and exposure back to its rightful entity.

How is SixMap’s platform priced?

SixMap prices the platform based on the number of full-time employees at your organization, which serves as a proxy for the complexity of your digital infrastructure and the quantity of external assets you need to monitor and protect. It may help to think of a SixMap contract as a “site license,” which covers your entire organization, regardless of the exact number of assets and users.

While some organizations price based on the number of assets, this pricing model may sometimes put customers in a position where they’re incentivized to ignore some of their own assets in order to stay in a lower pricing tier. SixMap prefers a pricing model that encourages customers to protect all of their infrastructure and assets.
