Deepinfo vs. CyCognito.
Both Deepinfo and CyCognito lead with EASM. The difference is what comes with it. CyCognito sells EASM as a standalone product with strong active-testing depth. Deepinfo extends EASM with integrated Cyber Threat Intelligence, Brand Risk Protection, and Third-Party Risk Management modules sharing the same internet-scale dataset.
What Deepinfo does that CyCognito doesn't.
CyCognito is EASM-only at a premium price point. The active-testing depth is real, but everything outside ASM, CTI, brand defense, third-party monitoring, raw data access, sits with other vendors in your stack.
Deepinfo is EASM plus CTI plus BRP plus TPRM, in one platform on one dataset. The external-exposure picture is unified by default, instead of stitched together across multiple vendors. For organizations that want the full CTEM motion under one engine, the architectural difference is large.
Four places Deepinfo extends beyond EASM-only.
Integrated CTI, BRP, TPRM in one platform.
CyCognito is EASM. Deepinfo is EASM plus Cyber Threat Intelligence (dark-web monitoring, breached credentials, threat-actor tracking), plus Brand Risk Protection (lookalike domains, brand abuse, takedowns), plus Third-Party Risk Management. The same dataset feeds all four; cross-module correlation is built in. With CyCognito you buy EASM and integrate the rest yourself.
Internet-scale dataset Deepinfo owns end-to-end.
CyCognito leans on internet data to support discovery. Deepinfo IS an internet-data company. 400M+ domains, 2B+ subdomains, 200B+ DNS records, 30B+ SSL certificates, indexed and refreshed on our own cadence, accessible end-to-end. Depth and freshness aren't licensed; they're owned.
EPSS and CISA KEV on every CVE.
Deepinfo enriches every detected CVE with the EPSS exploit-prediction score and the CISA KEV active-exploitation flag, out of the box. The queue is ranked by what's actually being exploited, not by theoretical CVSS severity. CyCognito's vulnerability ranking is more conventional severity-driven.
Direct dataset access via Data Feeds and APIs.
Deepinfo exposes the underlying dataset as Data Feeds and API Services for engineering teams that want to build with it directly. CyCognito doesn't sell raw data; the platform is consumed through the portal. If you have technical teams that want to query the internet rather than receive findings, the difference is meaningful.
CyCognito's active testing is genuine.
CyCognito's signature capability is running real DAST tests against discovered assets, actual exploitation attempts, not just passive observation. The PROBE engine catalogs deep into web applications, APIs, and endpoints. For organizations whose primary requirement is "we want to know not just whether the front door is open, but whether the lock can be picked," CyCognito's active-testing depth is a real strength. They also carry a Gartner / GigaOm Leader rating in the EASM category that some procurement processes weight heavily.
For organizations that want the broader external-exposure picture, EASM plus CTI plus brand defense plus third-party monitoring, Deepinfo's integrated platform is the more complete answer.
