How ignoring your digital attack surface risks brand credibility

Your brand’s biggest cyber threat might not be inside your firewall — it’s everything you can’t see.

 

In this Cybit x DarkInvader webinar, Ewa Johnson (Chief Marketing Officer, Cybit) is joined by Robin Hill (Co-Founder, DarkInvader) and Gavin Watson (Co-Founder, DarkInvader) to uncover the growing dangers of the external digital attack surface — and why brand credibility, not just infrastructure, is now on the line.

 

From open-source intelligence and human error to social media exposure and supply-chain vulnerabilities, this session explains why today’s cybercriminals are exploiting what’s publicly visible — and how organisations can stay one step ahead through Defensive Reconnaissance and continuous external monitoring.

Key takeaways

 

Your digital presence extends far beyond your firewall — and hackers know it.

 

External visibility is essential to brand protection and compliance.

 

Cyberattacks now start with reconnaissance, not code — visibility beats reaction.

 

Social media, suppliers, and oversharing are now key cyber-risk vectors.

 

Tools like DarkInvader give real-time insight into what attackers can see about your organisation.
