ShadowScan / Attack Paths

Explain how weaknesses can connect—not just where they exist.

Attack-path analysis is intended to help teams understand which combinations of exposure, access, and privilege create the most meaningful risk.

Capability Breakdown

Designed to make risk easier to understand and execute against.

01

Entry point

Identify the exposed service, identity weakness, or application condition that could provide initial access.

02

Movement opportunity

Show where weak segmentation, privilege, or trust relationships may allow expansion.

03

Potential impact

Connect the path to critical systems, data, services, or administrative control.

04

Path-breaking fixes

Prioritize the smallest set of controls that meaningfully interrupt the route.
