Overview
The Blacklisted Assets section allows you to exclude specific assets from monitoring, scans, and risk signal evaluations. This helps security teams eliminate false positives, ignore non-relevant infrastructure, and maintain a clean and actionable attack surface view.
Why Blacklist Assets?
Not all discovered assets require monitoring. Blacklisting is useful when:- 🧪 Assets are used for testing or staging
- 🔁 Assets are owned but intentionally exposed
- 🚫 Assets are out of scope for security monitoring
- ⚠️ Assets generate repeated false positives
Blacklisted Assets Table
The table provides a centralized view of all excluded assets.Fields Explained
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Asset Value | The IP address or domain/subdomain |
| Type | Asset type (IP or Subdomain) |
| Reason | Optional explanation for blacklisting |
| Blacklisted By | User who performed the action |
| Blacklisted On | Date when the asset was excluded |
How Blacklisting Works
Once an asset is blacklisted:- It is excluded from scans
- It does not appear in Risk Signals
- It is ignored in exposure detection
- It is removed from security prioritization workflows
Workflow Example
- Identify an asset generating noise or not relevant
- Add it to the Blacklist
- Future scans ignore the asset
- Risk Signals no longer include it
- Security team focuses on real threats
Best Practices
- 🎯 Only blacklist assets that are confirmed non-critical
- 📝 Always provide a reason for traceability
- 🔍 Periodically review blacklisted assets
- 🔁 Re-include assets if their risk profile changes
