Offensive cyber security company Praetorian has introduced Nosey Parker, a new module for its recently announced Chariot Platform.
According to the company, the inadvertent exposure of confidential data is one of the more common ways attackers gain a foothold in the organisation. Machine learning-powered, Nosey Parker is a multi-phase solution that enables application security engineers, cloud security engineers, site reliability engineers, and developers to detect secrets in code. The scanner consists of a pure regular expression pattern matcher, a ML-based de-noiser to eliminate false positives, and a powerful, standalone ML scanner which is not limited by any predefined set of patterns.
Using automation and artificial intelligence, the Chariot platform identifies attack surface exposure points using both outside-in and inside-out knowledge to prioritise risk.
