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 have a good way to go with the maturity of the AttackIQ platform. Being a relatively small team, we still need to balance out our red, blue, and purple team exercises with daily operation responsibilities. But it is the platform we leverage for a better understanding of the network and overall security posture. AttackIQ provides supporting documentation and evidence that we are doing what we say we are.”

    “The AttackIQ platform greatly accelerates the threat mitigation process. Instead of waiting a month for a penetration test to be completed, we can do it all in one combined workshop. It saves time and money. We saw the opportunity to automate and run all sorts of attacks and techniques through it. We knew we could dramatically improve visibility into our security effectiveness, and be more efficient with our team resources.”

    “It did produce a good result for the company. First, in retaining our existing insurance, where the premiums continue to go up, and the market is very tight. Second, we had threats of losing our insurance without demonstrating adequate controls at a minimum annually. You must answer truthfully to the best of your knowledge and not put yourself at risk by answering incorrectly. We leveraged the AttackIQ Security Optimization Platform to find the answer we were looking for, and to either share or have that documented in case of a breach, and we were held accountable for those responses.”

    “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.”

    “We have no intention to build a dedicated red team because we have AttackIQ in place. AttackIQ provides me and my team, broader knowledge of the landscape, and a platform we can leverage to simulate. That is huge. AttackIQ augments the need for a full-time red team or even outsourcing red team activities in the traditional, almost legacy sense these days,”

  • “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.”

    “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.”

    “Throughout the year, we’re continuously performing control validation tests. The results from these tests are automatically sent out to the CISOs and our SecOps team which gives us instant visibility into the gaps in our preventative and detective controls. If our systems don’t prevent an attack, or even alert on it, we can take appropriate action.”

    “We have a variety of controls with so many overlapping components that we have to question whether we are effectively protecting ourselves or we have a false sense of security. We might have controls X, Y, and Z, and a successful attack should be impossible because each of those controls should catch it. But with AttackIQ, we might find that none of the controls actually catches an attack we would expect them all to detect. 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.”

    Overall, my experience with AttackIQ has been solid. It’s helped us continuously test and improve our defenses with realistic attack simulations. Platform is easy to use and integrates well with our existing tools, greatly improved our posture with automated testing.

  • 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.
