CyCognito

CyCognito is a cybersecurity company providing an external attack surface management (EASM) and exposure management platform. Its cloud-native platform continuously discovers, maps, and tests an organization's internet-exposed assets—domains, IPs, web apps, APIs, and cloud environments—to surface and validate critical exposures before attackers exploit them. The CyCognito API V1 is a REST API (API-key authenticated) that lets you query assets and issues, manage attack-surface scope, attribute assets to organizations, manage users and cloud connectors, run exports and executive reports, and verify the identity of scanner IPs. CyCognito is backed by Accel and Lightspeed Venture Partners.

CyCognito publishes 12 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Assets API, Audit Logs API, Cloud Connectors API, and 9 more. Tagged areas include Company, Cybersecurity, Attack Surface Management, Exposure Management, and Security.

CyCognito’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, signup flow, pricing, engineering blog, authentication, and 24 more developer resources.
