Id	9e18b6c3-d172-4bc6-a7d9-cc7b0a03a69e
Rulename	CYFIRMA - Attack Surface - Open Ports Medium Rule
Description	“This rule is triggered when CYFIRMA identifies open and publicly accessible ports on internet-facing assets. Exposed services may include SSH, RDP, HTTP, or other potentially sensitive ports, increasing the risk of unauthorized access, exploitation, or reconnaissance by threat actors. Monitoring open ports is critical to reducing the external attack surface and preventing misuse through brute force, service vulnerabilities, or protocol exploitation.”
