Today’s manufacturing firms need advanced solutions

Modern manufacturing enterprises face an extremely hostile threat landscape, and legacy tools are struggling to meet the moment. As operations expand across plants, vendors, and connected systems, attack surface visibility becomes clouded. What’s left is a partial view of risk that may overlook critical vulnerabilities.

Defenders can finally move from hopeful assumption to decisive action, with outcomes that matter most

COMPLEX ENVIRONMENTS

Legacy tools run partial discovery and assessment processes, leaving risks exposed

SUPPLY CHAIN INTERDEPENDENCE

Each supplier, vendor and technology increases exposure to third-party risks

HIGHLY TARGETED SECTOR

Manufacturers face constant attacks from both cybercriminals and nation-state actors

AUDIT-READY INTEGRATION

Export proof anywhere you need it — instantly, securely, and on demand

SixMap was built to protect mission-critical networks

SixMap was born out of national defense with a mission-oriented approach to security. Now, SixMap is delivering the same military-grade technologies to manufacturing firms to ensure business continuity. We give security teams the exposure data needed to protect uptime, safeguard data, and keep production moving without disruption.

Organizational Clarity
Understand all the entities and assets that you’re responsible for protecting

Complete Discovery
Identify all of your networks, IP addresses, and domains across IPv4 and IPv6

Comprehensive Assessment
Continuous inspection of all 65,535 ports on every host, every single assessment

Preemptive Risk Mitigation
Detect risks faster, quickly see which entity owns the asset, and accelerate remediation

An exposure management solution focused on business continuity

Manufacturing companies must prioritize continuity and seamless operations. SixMap takes the same approach by understanding your organization as a whole before focusing on technical discovery and assessments. We delivers total visibility across all entities, networks, exposures, and risks, while continuing to monitor as your operations grow.

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.
