Why it matters
- Shadow assets are often missed by CMDBs, cloud inventories and annual assessments.
- Forgotten development, staging or third-party systems can create real entry points.
- Unknown ownership slows remediation and increases breach risk.
Shadow Asset Detection
Find exposed assets that are outside approved inventories, ownership models or expected deployment paths.
Evidence traceApproved scopeTarget-aware testing
Capability architecture
Find the exposed system that no current team claims.
ThreatCanary combines outside-in discovery, historical change and ownership evidence to investigate forgotten and unmanaged infrastructure.
ThreatCanary approach
- Compare discovered assets against known scope, ownership and platform records.
- Identify assets with weak provenance, missing owner signals or unexpected exposure.
- Route suspected shadow assets into verification, ownership and validation workflows.
What it validates or reveals
- Unmanaged exposed systems.
- Assets lacking ownership or expected metadata.
- Shadow exposure that may connect to APIs, data or critical systems.
Evidence produced
- Discovery and attribution evidence.
- Ownership confidence and routing history.
- Validated exposure or disposition decision.
