Attack Surface Visibility for Open-Source Software Security

See Every Open-Source Component in Your Live Attack Surface

Attack surface visibility is critical for fast remediation of open-source vulnerabilities. Modern software is built on open source,  but every package you deploy expands your attack surface. Traditional scanners stop at the source code; DeployHub extends protection into runtime. Our automated vulnerability detection platform delivers attack surface visibility across all live systems, showing exactly which components, versions, and vulnerabilities are running in production. And even better, it integrates into your DevSecOps Pipeline.

By mapping SBOM data to deployed environments, DeployHub transforms static inventories into a real-time view of your operational attack surface, the foundation for faster, data-driven remediation.

Why Attack Surface Visibility Matters

Open-source packages are dynamic. They change, fork, and update daily,  and with each update, new vulnerabilities can appear. Without attack surface visibility into where those components are running, security teams can’t know:

  • Which CVEs actually affect production systems

  • Which workloads or endpoints are at risk

  • How a single vulnerable dependency propagates across clusters, clouds, or edge devices

Attack Surface Visibility Closes That Gap

Attack surface visibility is a game changer. It turns SBOMs into living intelligence,  showing the who, what, and where of every open-source component in real time, so remediation targets the systems that matter most.

Features

DeployHub’s attack surface visibility provides normalized, detailed information about each deployed component and dependent logical application. At a minimum, for each component, the aggregated report includes:

DeployHub Digital Twin Evidence Store

A continuously updated model of your live software environments,  tying every deployed component back to its SBOM and CVE record.

 

Real-Time SBOM Correlation

Automated matching of build-time SBOMs with deployed assets, ensuring your visibility reflects what’s actually running, not what was built.

Post-Deployment Attack Surface Monitoring

Continuous attack surface monitoring detects when new CVEs appear or packages shift versions, closing the window between discovery and patch.
