DeepSurface is the first risk-based vulnerability management platform that allows cybersecurity teams to automate the process of analyzing and prioritizing vulnerabilities. Created by a team of cybersecurity experts, DeepSurface is trusted by enterprise companies to analyze and prioritize vulnerabilities in their full context. DeepSurface RiskAnalyzer automatically collects and considers more than 50 attributes of an environment to contextualize vulnerabilities (and chains of vulnerabilities) in order to predict where an adversary could cause the most damage. By leveraging DeepSurface, teams can use provable prioritization to effectively measure and report vulnerability risk. Headquartered in Portland, Oregon, DeepSurface Security is a privately held company funded by Differential Ventures, Osage Venture Partners, Voyager Capital, and Cascade Seed Fund.
