Open-Source Attack Surface Management Cheat Sheet Released
A developer has published an open-source Attack Surface Management cheat sheet that started as personal notes and evolved into a structured reference. The project focuses on practical ASM implementation rather than theoretical concepts.
What's Included
The cheat sheet covers several key areas of Attack Surface Management:
- Discovering unknown assets
- Tracking exposed infrastructure
- Reconnaissance and enumeration tooling
- Simple automation workflows
- Recommended books and learning resources
Development Process
The developer used Claude AI to help organize sections, expand explanations, and structure documentation to read more like a guide rather than scattered notes. The repository includes implementation notes and workflows for getting started with ASM programs.
Project Details
The cheat sheet is available as a GitHub repository and has a demo site hosted at https://asm-cheatsheet.vercel.app/. The developer indicates they're open to expanding the resource based on community feedback and use cases.
