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.

  • “When we met AttackIQ, the game changed. We liked the flow of the AttackIQ platform, we liked the idea and the framework, and as soon as they showed us the platform, we were comfortable with it. Because it is so easy to launch an attack within the Security Optimization Platform, we can very quickly run these batches of attacks to understand whether there are any control gaps in the infrastructure. In one case, we developed an attack to test an aspect of the data loss prevention [DLP] system that one of our customers was running. Initial development of that assessment took a month. But now, we can replicate this same assessment in a couple of minutes.”

    “Since we deployed AttackIQ, anytime there is a new adversary or a new attack scenario, analyzing whether our controls are effective against it takes a click of a button. Within hours of a threat first being reported, I can run a test and confirm with the customer that our defenses are sound. Before they even come to us, I can send a message to our customers telling them, ‘This new attack is happening, but don’t worry: We are already up to date.'”

    “When we are going to acquire a new company, we can use the AttackIQ platform in the due diligence process. Testing controls in the target company before the deal closes enables us to understand their security hygiene. Does it make sense to integrate our security systems, or should we plan on fully absorbing them into our infrastructure because their current environment is just too risky? AttackIQ helps us make those decisions.”

    “When we use AttackIQ for training, we achieve greater visibility into our own cyber hygiene and countermeasures. That helps us further apply threat-informed defense internally, especially as adversary tradecraft evolves.”

    “AttackIQ gives us the ability to assess against our key threats, and that gives me the information I need to report to key stakeholders, such as the CIO or operations leads, that we are as secure as can be expected. Essentially, AttackIQ gives me the information I need to say with confidence that the programs and reporting we have in place are working to lower our cyber risk.”

    “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.”

    Now, we can automatically test something and get feedback within the AttackIQ. Nobody needs to check for alerts manually. We brought automated testing to different teams, like for our blue and networking teams, for networking segmentation.

  • Insurance

    “Security teams that aren’t doing any control validation — any breach and attack simulation — have a serious gap in their visibility. Companies like ours, where different business units have different controls in place and maybe different security technologies, need insights into where each organization stacks up. Breach and attack simulation software is a good way to ensure that you’re well-positioned to respond to an actual attack.”

  • Retail

    “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.”

    “In a lot of ways, the comprehensiveness and complexity of the security architecture we’ve built is driving our need for the AttackIQ tool — we need an external capability to see that what we expect to be protected is actually being protected.”

  • “The dashboard makes it easy to understand exactly where we found vulnerabilities, and customers generally tell us that the reports add a lot of value to our engagement. If customers want to simulate an attack on hundreds of endpoints, AttackIQ enables us to complete those simulations in about the same length of time testing a single endpoint would take.”

  • Defending Against Iranian Cyber Threats in the Wake of Operation Epic Fury 

    On February 28, 2026, the United States and Israel launched Operation Epic Fury (U.S.) and Operation Roaring Lion (Israel), a coordinated military and cyber campaign targeting Iranian military installations, IRGC leadership, and government infrastructure. U.S. Cyber Command was designated the “first mover,” with cyber operations beginning before any kinetic weapons were deployed. In the first 48 hours, U.S. and allied forces struck more than 1,250 targets across Iran, while Israel conducted what has been described as the largest cyberattack in history, collapsing Iran’s internet connectivity to 1-4% of normal levels through multi-layered attacks on BGP routing, DNS infrastructure, and SCADA/ICS systems.
