Top-rated ASM tools for continuous security scanning

Hey G2 community, I’m curious—what are the best platforms you’ve used for continuous security scanning? With attack surfaces expanding across cloud, SaaS, and hybrid infrastructures, it’s becoming critical to have tools that can run ongoing scans, discover exposures, and provide real-time alerts rather than periodic checks. Based on reviews in the Attack Surface Management category on G2, here are a few standout options:

• Wiz – A cloud-native ASM solution that continuously scans workloads, containers, and configurations across multi-cloud environments. Wiz is known for surfacing critical misconfigurations and vulnerabilities while helping teams prioritize remediation by showing the most exploitable risk paths.
• RiskProfiler – Specializes in continuous external asset discovery and exposure monitoring. RiskProfiler provides ongoing scans of internet-facing systems, ensuring organizations can quickly spot and address new vulnerabilities as they emerge.
• Microsoft Defender External Attack Surface Management – Continuously maps and monitors an organization’s external footprint. With its integration into the Microsoft Defender ecosystem, it provides ongoing scanning and threat detection across assets, domains, and cloud environments.
• CloudSEK – Offers continuous monitoring of external assets combined with contextual threat intelligence. Its real-time scanning capabilities help organizations detect exposures early and understand how they align with active threat actor campaigns.
• SOCRadar – Goes beyond asset discovery by combining continuous ASM with extended threat intelligence. SOCRadar tracks exposed assets and correlates them with cybercriminal chatter, providing insight into which vulnerabilities are most likely to be exploited.

If your team has tested any of these, I’d love to know—did continuous scanning help reduce blind spots or speed up response times? Which features stood out most for you: automation, intel-driven prioritization, or integration with existing security stacks?
