Overview

The Subdomains module provides a complete, enriched inventory of all discovered subdomains across your organization. It goes beyond simple discovery by combining reachability, vulnerabilities, DNS intelligence, SSL data, open ports, and asset relationships into a single investigation workflow.

Dashboard View

The dashboard provides high-level visibility into subdomain posture across the organization.

Key Metrics

  • Total Subdomains — All discovered assets
  • Live Subdomains — Actively reachable endpoints
  • Vulnerable Subdomains — Subdomains with findings
  • Critical Subdomains — High severity assets

Visual Insights

  • Vulnerability Distribution — Severity-based breakdown
  • Environment Distribution — Production, Staging, Unknown
  • Network Scope — External vs internal exposure
  • WAF Distribution — Protected vs unprotected assets
  • Active vs Inactive — Live vs dead endpoints
  • Status Code Distribution — HTTP response patterns

Inventory View

The inventory is the operational layer for filtering and triaging subdomains.

  • First / Last Detected

Subdomain Details

This section provides live HTTP and infrastructure insights.

Includes

  • Status Code (e.g., 200, 403)
  • Page Title
  • Live Status
  • Externally Reachable (Yes/No)
  • Network Scope
  • WAF Detection
  • Server Type (e.g., nginx)
  • Content Type

Security Overview

Security Data

  • Total Vulnerabilities
  • Severity Breakdown (Critical, High, Medium, Low, Info)
  • Open vs Closed Vulnerabilities
  • Aggregate CVSS Score
  • Remediation Progress
  • Test Status
  • Last Scan Date

Open Ports

Port Intelligence

  • Port Number (e.g., 80, 443)
  • Environment
  • Vulnerability Status
  • Associated Assets Count
  • Last Checked Timestamp

DNS Records & SSL Certificates

DNS Visibility

  • Record Values (IP / NS / MX / TXT)
  • Record Type
  • Resolved From
  • Third-party indication
  • Last Checked

SSL Certificate Data

  • Common Name
  • Issuer
  • Validity Period
  • Alternative Names

Asset Relationships

Subdomains are automatically linked to related infrastructure.

Includes Relationships With:

  • DNS Records
  • IP Addresses
  • Repositories
  • Applications
  • Other assets in AIM
This enables teams to trace dependencies and understand blast radius.

Data Sources (Adapters)

Subdomain data is enriched through multiple integrations:
  • HackerTarget — External reconnaissance data
  • CRT (Certificate Transparency) — Subdomain discovery via cert logs
  • SnapSec ASM — External attack surface intelligence
  • Vulnerability Management — Security findings

Why This Matters

The Subdomains module enables teams to:
  • Discover complete external attack surface
  • Identify publicly exposed assets instantly
  • Correlate DNS, SSL, and infrastructure signals
  • Detect open ports and reachable services
  • Track vulnerabilities with remediation context
  • Understand asset relationships and dependencies
This turns subdomain tracking from simple inventory into full attack surface intelligence.
