Your attack surface does not stay still. As your business adds cloud services, remote access, Microsoft 365, AWS workloads, branch connectivity and third-party platforms, the number of assets that can be seen and reached from the internet grows with it.
Prima Secure helps organisations in South Africa and across Africa manage that exposure with attack surface management services built around asset visibility, vulnerability management and managed cyber security. We combine continuous assessments, scanning and exposure reduction to see what’s internet-exposed, understand the risk, and act first.
Attack surface management services for businesses in South Africa and across Africa
Prima Secure provides attack surface management for businesses that need a clearer view of internet-exposed assets, internet-facing devices and online footprint risk. Our service brings together asset inventory, vulnerability scanning, risk context and managed follow-through, so your team is not left with a static list that is out of date within weeks.
“Prima Secure Specula provides 24/7 SOC monitoring and a single view across networks, endpoints, cloud environments and identity platforms.”
That matters because effective attack surface management is not just about counting assets. Current guidance from CISA, NIST and Gartner points in the same direction: you need visibility into what is exposed, context around why it matters, and regular reassessment as environments change.
Prima Secure helps reduce internet exposure, not just document it
Prima Secure approaches attack surface management as a practical exposure-reduction service. We help identify internet-accessible assets, assess which need to stay public, and prioritise mitigation for a smaller, more defensible footprint.
“Prima Secure works with Tenable, Qualys and HivePro on vulnerability management platforms.”
This makes the service more useful than a simple inventory exercise. Gartner notes CMDB inventories often lack security context; Prima Secure adds scanning, telemetry and visibility to prioritize real risk. For your team, that means fewer blind spots, less guesswork and faster decisions. Instead of treating every public-facing asset equally, focus on the systems, identities and services creating the highest business exposure.
What your Prima Secure attack surface management service can include
Prima Secure can scope attack surface management around your external estate only, or connect it into a broader managed security programme where visibility and remediation need to reach beyond the perimeter.
The service can include:
- Asset visibility: Identification and tracking of internet-exposed assets and related environments so you can understand what is reachable and where ownership is unclear.
- Vulnerability scanning: Scanning of internet-facing systems and other relevant assets to surface weaknesses that expand your attack surface.
- Risk prioritisation: Context-driven review of findings so your team can focus on the exposures that create the most business risk.
- Exposure reduction: Support to remove unnecessary exposure, harden assets that must stay public, and reassess changes over time.
- Managed integration: Connection to broader services such as SOC-as-a-Service, EDR/MDR, network security, email security, firewalls, NAC, Zero Trust, backup and disaster recovery.
Prima Secure is especially useful when attack surface management needs to lead directly into remediation. Because we also deliver endpoint security, email security, firewalls, NAC, Zero Trust, backup and disaster recovery, cloud and Microsoft 365 or AWS services, DLP and identity security, your exposure review does not have to stop at a report.
Managed attack surface visibility with Specula and vulnerability management platforms
Prima Secure strengthens attack surface management with Specula, our managed cyber security platform for African organisations that need enterprise-grade protection without building their own SOC. Specula ingests telemetry from security tools, networks, endpoints, cloud and identity platforms into one view for actionable exposure insight.
“Prima Secure lists Specula managed monitoring tiers from $91.20 to $336.30 per user per year.”
Prima Secure also supports attack surface management through its vulnerability management partnerships. Our platform lineup includes Tenable, Qualys and HivePro; Qualys VMDR unites asset inventory, vulnerability scanning, risk scoring, patching and compliance. For you, that creates a more joined-up path from discovery to remediation and audit readiness.
If your security team is already overloaded, this model reduces operational drag. Instead of assembling separate tools, separate vendors and separate reporting lines, you can align external exposure visibility with managed monitoring and vulnerability management under one provider.
Prima Secure gives you local support with enterprise-grade security options
Buying attack surface management is rarely just about finding a scanner. You also need to know who supports rollout, how findings are interpreted, and how remediation ties into existing controls.
Prima Secure offers local South African expertise, backed by enterprise security technologies and managed services across Africa. As an authorised reseller of leading global security brands, we help you move from discovery to procurement and deployment faster.
Pricing depends on scope, asset count, environments, and whether ASM runs standalone or within a wider managed service. For broader managed monitoring, Prima Secure’s published Specula pricing gives a concrete planning baseline, even with tailored ASM scope.
When Prima Secure is the right fit for attack surface management
Prima Secure fits when your organisation needs attack surface management connected to real operational security work, not siloed separately.
You are likely to get the most value if you:
- Operate hybrid environments: Your estate spans on-premises systems, cloud platforms and remote users, which makes static inventories unreliable.
- Have meaningful external exposure: You need visibility into internet-exposed assets, internet-facing devices and your changing online footprint.
- Need continuous assessments: One-off audits are not enough because services, identities and configurations keep changing.
- Want managed follow-through: You need the same provider to support vulnerability management, SOC monitoring and the security controls used to reduce exposure.
- Need African delivery capability: You want a provider that supports businesses in South Africa and across Africa with local engagement and enterprise-grade options.
If you need help understanding and reducing risk, not just finding assets, Prima Secure is built for that conversation.
Speak to Prima Secure about your attack surface today. We’ll help scope the right mix of visibility, scanning and exposure reduction.
