Saporo is a Swiss company based in Lausanne. We created an internal attack surface management solution that helps organizations better anticipate and resist cyberattacks.
Our technology reduces the internal attack surface of organizations by prioritizing and mitigating risks associated with identity and permissions.
Bringing the power of graph to defenders.
Saporo wants to bring the power of graph to defenders. Red teamers have been using graphs for a long time to find and exploit attack paths to critical assets. Defenders can never hope to get ahead of attackers if attackers have a better understanding of the battlefield (i.e., organizations' own network). By leveraging the same techniques used by threat actors to visualize the most critical paths to critical resources, defenders can start to see their environment as attackers do. Once visibility is achieved, it becomes much easier to anticipate attack paths and implement the appropriate countermeasures and controls.
Defenders think in lists. Attackers think in graphs. As long as this is true, attackers win.
