📈 Meet the Ph.D improving traditional threat management with a fully automated cyber defense platform in this week's Founder Spotlight:
Austin Murdock, PhD, founded SixMap, Inc. in 2020 to revolutionize how organizations manage their internet-facing assets.
As the inventor of Computational Network Mapping, Austin holds a Ph.D. in Security, Networking, and High-Performance Computing and has a career rooted in the intelligence community, MIT-Lincoln Lab, JHU Applied Physics Laboratory, and prestigious DoD programs.
Before SixMap, he aimed to solve the longstanding challenge of mapping IPv6, a problem over two decades old.
After succeeding, he ported the technology to IPv4, creating a fully automated solution for continuous threat exposure management for internet-facing assets, from discovery to remediation of threats.
SixMap is designed for threat and vulnerability management teams struggling to secure their external attack surfaces, even after investing in traditional threat intelligence and surface management tools.
What sets SixMap apart is its zero-agent approach, mapping the entire external network—including IPv4 and IPv6—while aligning with your organizational structure. It also incorporates supervised auto-fix capabilities, reducing risk and improving operational efficiency.
Unlike other solutions, SixMap maps the full scope of your attack surface and provides continuous validation of remediation efforts.
With integrated contextual threat intelligence and automated defense capabilities, SixMap empowers teams to swiftly mitigate imminent threats and streamline security operations.
