Risk that reflects what matters to the business
Criticality inferred from exposure, data & blast radius
kinetic8 automatically infers each asset's business importance from identity exposure, data sensitivity, and blast radius — so risk reflects what actually matters to the business, not just technical severity.
Why it matters
Importance, inferred automatically
A deterministic scorer ranks every asset into mission-critical, business-critical, standard, and low-impact tiers using identity exposure, data sensitivity, dependencies, and compliance scope — no manual tagging.
Blast radius, not just severity
Criticality accounts for how far a compromise would spread — the identities that can reach an asset and the systems that depend on it — so a 'medium' CVE on a crown-jewel host outranks a 'critical' on a throwaway box.
Explainable and defensible
Every tier is fully explainable from the signals that produced it and can be refined via plain-English Q&A — with no per-asset LLM cost and no black box for auditors to distrust.
Capabilities

- Signals: identity exposure, data sensitivity, dependencies, compliance scope
- Blast-radius awareness from relationship and identity graphs
- Deterministic and explainable — no per-asset LLM cost
- Plain-English refinement of importance via Intent Q&A
- Criticality feeds risk scoring, prioritization, and attack-path ranking
