AEV: The Next Evolution of BAS

Breach and Attack Simulation proved that testing works—but today’s threats demand more than periodic validation. Adversarial Exposure Validation delivers continuous, comprehensive and targeted testing and transforms how security teams achieve and maintain defense readiness.

Validate Continuously

Catch failures fast with always-on, automated testing that eliminates point-in-time blind spots.

Validate Everything

Verify threats, controls, and attack paths across cloud, identity, and infrastructure—in one unified platform.

Validate Everywhere

Evaluate defenses across endpoints, hybrid environments, and third parties at scale and without disruption.

Validate What Matters

Prioritize exploitable exposures that impact your business and prove which defenses actually work.

Introducing The AttackIQ Adversarial Exposure Validation (AEV) Platform

The AttackIQ AEV platform goes beyond traditional exposure management by continuously validating security controls and simulating real-world scenarios.

    “We can produce a realistic attack, validate where controls are successful at detecting or preventing it, identify places where controls aren’t working, make sure the SOC and other teams are responding appropriately, and then make improvements where the tests indicate they’re needed. Bringing all those activities together into the same process is, in my opinion, the definition of Tier 1 purple teaming. I think we should focus more on being a purple team than either red or blue, and AttackIQ has been solving that problem for us from the outset.”

    5 Star Review “The journey we started was great because the AttackIQ staff were there to help us adopt the product as easily as possible. Definitely consider the use of AttackIQ, the insights and regular reporting it will provide will only benefit your organization.”

    “I was able to assure the other team that the infrastructure changes they wanted to make were a good idea from a security standpoint,” he continues. “And when my boss asked whether we’d signed off on the infrastructure changes, I didn’t just say, ‘Yes, they explained it all to me.’ I said, ‘Yes, and we have data, we have testing, we have validation that their changes make sense.’”

    “That’s what’s great about AttackIQ, it allows us to identify our biggest potential security control gaps and gives us the visibility we need to ensure our controls are up to scratch. The AttackIQ Security Optimization Platform is therefore a fundamental layer of our threat-informed defense.”

    “AttackIQ has done wonders in terms of giving us a clear picture. One CISO responded to the results of a test and said, ‘I don’t believe this.’ We got some engineers to perform an independent validation and, sure enough, the AttackIQ results were correct. Having assessment data at my fingertips is very useful when I need to push a team to take certain actions.”

    “We might see, hypothetically, that we’re good on protecting against ‘initial foothold’ with a particular type of malware, but we are not doing well in protecting data on a certain type of device from being exfiltrated. We can use that information to understand what we need to change. Maybe we see that we are preventing the first five steps of the attack, so it’s unlikely that an attacker will get to the sixth step, where we might have a gap. Using the MITRE framework to break down attacks like this helps us decide where to invest additional resources.”

    “Running any test manually is going to take weeks and weeks to complete across our thousands of locations globally. With AttackIQ, my team can spend a day building, testing, and validating the assessment, then push it out whenever and wherever we need it. This drastically improves the scalability of our testing regime.

  • “AttackIQ also stands out because even as it emulates the adversary in its testing process, we can be confident that if we attack a client’s production systems, we will not break their workflows. That is a problem for some pen testing tools.”

    “AttackIQ wasn’t just a tool, but a long-term partnership with the people at the company. Everyone I interacted with was great with customer service and knew the platform well, which was important to me. My interactions with the employees made it clear that AttackIQ was a good company I could trust. Anybody that wants to get ahead of the curve should invest in automation with a breach and attack simulation platform, like AttackIQ.”

  • “A couple of weeks ago, the Spanish division of a global company asked us to do a cybersecurity assessment across their 500 employees’ endpoints. Because of the Russian war and other current events, they wanted to make sure they had the right security infrastructure in place. We ran 74 specifically chosen scenarios (attacks) across five critical targets in under a week. With a manual pen test, in the best-case scenario, the tests would have taken us at least three weeks, plus another week to generate a report on the results.”

    “Our initial intention is to ensure whatever endpoint security solution we have, that our technology stack is firing appropriately. That it’s catching when it’s supposed to catch, preventing what’s supposed to prevent. AttackIQ has allowed us to test and get a good picture of our EDR capabilities. I know AttackIQ is working as intended because the detections have increased. We are up around 30% for our detections.”

    Overall experience with the product is great! The product has provided so much insight into our systems and has allowed improvement of overall security posture. Product can be in the high end in terms of pricing but it is money well spent! Regular updates of the attack library and the ability to customize it to your needs. Very simple to use.

    How can you ensure that your cybersecurity capabilities defend your organization as best they can? After decades and billions of dollars spent on the people, processes, and technology of cybersecurity, this question still haunts security leaders. Intruders break past, security controls falter, and defenses fail against even basic cyberattack techniques. What should be done? Instead of trying to close every vulnerability, meet every standard, or buy the “best” technology, security teams can change the game by focusing their defenses on known threats.
