External Footprint
Publicly discoverable domains, hosts, services, technology, and other organization-associated exposure within the approved scope.
Reconnaissance & mapping
See the environment the way an attacker first sees it.
Before exploitation comes discovery. CenturionOps combines external footprinting, attack-surface analysis, and network mapping to help organizations understand what is exposed, how assets relate, and where unexpected visibility can create risk.
What we assess
Testing focused on the areas that drive the objective.
The exact scope is tailored to your environment, constraints, and desired outcome.
Network Topology
In-scope devices, reachable services, network relationships, and segmentation information useful for understanding technical exposure.
Unexpected Exposure
Assets, services, or relationships that may be forgotten, unnecessary, misconfigured, or more visible than intended.
Methodology
A disciplined path from scope to actionable results.
01DefineEstablish organization boundaries, domains, network ranges, known assets, and exclusions.
02DiscoverEnumerate externally visible or internally reachable assets and services using authorized methods.
03MapOrganize discovered systems, relationships, technology, and exposure into a usable picture.
04ReduceIdentify unnecessary visibility, important unknowns, and recommended steps for reducing or governing the attack surface.
What you receive
Results designed to support decisions and remediation.
Exposure Inventory
A structured record of discovered in-scope assets and services.
Attack-Surface Summary
The most important observations about what is visible or reachable.
Network / Relationship Mapping
A practical representation of systems and relationships identified during assessment.
Reduction Recommendations
Actions to remove unnecessary exposure, improve ownership, and support future monitoring.
Typical engagement flow
Simple coordination. Clear boundaries. Useful outcomes.
Scoping & authorization
Define objectives, targets, access, exclusions, contacts, testing windows, and rules of engagement.
Controlled assessment
Perform the agreed testing while maintaining communication around material observations or scope-sensitive issues.
Reporting & readout
Deliver findings, evidence, priorities, and recommended next steps, followed by a stakeholder review.
Frequently asked questions
What clients typically want to know.
Exact details depend on scope and environment, but these answers cover the most common engagement questions.
Is this the same as penetration testing?
No. Attack-surface analysis focuses primarily on discovery, exposure, and relationships. Penetration testing goes further by attempting controlled exploitation of approved targets.
Can you identify assets we may not know about?
That is one of the goals of footprinting and attack-surface discovery, though results depend on scope, visibility, naming, and attribution.
Can network mapping be performed internally?
Yes. Internal mapping can help document reachable devices, services, and network relationships within authorized ranges.
Can this be used before a penetration test?
Yes. Attack-surface discovery can help refine scope and identify areas where deeper penetration testing may provide the most value.
