# Snapsec ASM

> Integrate Snapsec ASM with AIM to sync external attack surface assets directly into your internal asset inventory.

## Overview

The **Snapsec ASM Integration** allows AIM to automatically ingest assets discovered on your external attack surface — including domains, subdomains, IPs, exposed services, cloud endpoints, and shadow infrastructure.

This integration ensures that everything visible to attackers externally also becomes visible internally to your security and asset teams.

Snapsec ASM Integration in AIM

***

## What This Integration Does

Once enabled, AIM begins receiving assets from your ASM workspace:

* Newly discovered domains & subdomains
* Shadow IT assets
* External IPs and open ports
* Cloud-exposed resources
* High-risk or misconfigured assets
* Exposure intelligence linked with vulnerabilities

AIM merges these findings with your internal catalog, eliminating blind spots between ASM and internal IT.

***

## How to Configure

### 1. Open the Snapsec ASM Adapter

Go to **AIM → Integrations → Snapsec ASM → Install**.

### 2. Provide Required Credentials

Enter:

* **ASM Workspace ID**
* **API Key** (from your ASM settings)

Click **Install** to activate the connection.

### 3. AIM Begins Sync Automatically

Once installed:

* New ASM discoveries appear under relevant asset types
* Exposure metadata and relationships update in real time
* Shadow assets become visible across AIM dashboards

***

## Fields Imported from ASM

AIM will ingest metadata such as:

* Asset value (domain, subdomain, IP, API, etc.)
* Exposure type (Exposed, Shadow, Safe)
* Severity & risk indicators
* Open ports / services
* First & last seen timestamps
* Technology fingerprints
* Associated ASN / cloud metadata

***

## Sync Frequency

ASM → AIM sync runs **continuously**, and most updates appear within seconds of being discovered.

***

## When to Use This Integration

Enable Snapsec ASM in AIM if you want:

* External attack surface assets visible in your internal inventory
* Unified vulnerability & exposure analysis
* Shadow asset detection mapped to owners
* Cross-module correlation between AIM, ASM, and VM
