Censys

Censys is an internet intelligence platform that provides organizations with real-time visibility into their global networks and devices, enabling effective threat hunting and exposure management. The platform leverages advanced scanning capabilities to create a comprehensive and accurate view of an organization's internet-facing assets, including known, unknown, and shadow IT resources.

Censys continuously monitors and analyzes these assets for potential exposures, vulnerabilities, and misconfigurations. It transforms raw data into actionable insights, presented through intuitive dashboards and visualizations, enabling security teams to understand and manage their entire attack surface from an attacker's perspective.

The platform's risk triage feature uses over 300 risk fingerprints to assess the severity of identified weaknesses and prioritize remediation efforts. Censys provides rich context and remediation recommendations to streamline security decisions and issue resolution. Additionally, it rapidly communicates emergency vulnerabilities within 24 hours of disclosure.

Censys offers a range of tools and features for threat hunting, vulnerability management, and attack surface monitoring. Its predictive scanning techniques enable comprehensive coverage across 65,000 ports, ensuring the most up-to-date and accurate data on internet-exposed services.

In June 2023, Censys raised USD 75 million in funding to accelerate product innovation, solidify its leadership in threat intelligence data, and expand globally. The company reported over 130% annual recurring revenue growth since its Series B round in January 2022.
