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.

Real Impact for Real-World
Security Challenges

From Fortune 500 companies to mid-sized enterprises, organizations across industries trust us to keep them resilient.

  • Retail

    “What the Security Optimization Platform enables me to do is demonstrate to our CISO, other senior leadership, and the board that we are doing the right thing. That is invaluable with an attack surface as broad and complex as ours.”
    Director of Security Operations
    Building Confidence in Security Effectiveness Across a Fortune 500 Retailer’s Complex Global Infrastructure

  • Energy

    “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.”
    Head of Cyber Security
    SA Power Networks, an Australian Energy Company, Improves Security Control Validation and Reduces Costs with AttackIQ

  • 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.”
    Director of Security Operations
    Building Confidence in Security Effectiveness Across a Fortune 500 Retailer’s Complex Global Infrastructure

  • Facility Management Services

    “AttackIQ enables us to be more strategic with our security investments. What should we implement next to drive down risk? Automation is a smarter way of answering that question than manual pen testing because it reduces the cost of testing and increases the thoroughness of assessments. It plays a crucial role in our security investment decisions”
    Chief Information Security Officer (CISO)
    ISS World Services A/S, One of the World’s Leading Facilities Management Providers, Finds Efficient Road to Security Visibility

  • Defense, Transportation

    “We have fully integrated the AttackIQ platform into our penetration testing methodology. Because it is automated, we can test more scenarios in less time. That enables us to do thorough white box and gray box capabilities testing, as well as relevant tests targeted to a customer’s specific industry and geographic region.”

  • Fortune 500 Asset Management Firm (Finance)

    “Knowing that we can test our systems every week, and potentially every day, means we can be sure our controls are working as we would expect.”

  • Facility Management Services

    “We built 150 custom scenarios in total, which was easy to do in the AttackIQ platform. Then we created simulations to run against our systems. From that, we came to conclusions about how likely that particular ransomware actor was to succeed in an attack.”

  • Security

    “The partnership with AttackIQ has supercharged our cyber risk service offerings. The company offers an evergreen, out-of-the-box solution for threat emulation and automated breach and attack simulation that is fully integrated with MITRE ATT&CK. That means it’s easy for us to use, and that it’s always up to date with the latest in adversary techniques and threat behavior. None of the tools we used were integrated with MITRE ATT&CK, which made them time consuming to apply and analyze. The reporting was limited, and the overall usability of the system was inefficient.”

    Managing Director

  • Defense, Transportation

    “I recommend AttackIQ for all the security teams out there. To keep up with threats that are constantly emerging, you have to be constantly testing. If you are a little bit sloppy, someone is going to take advantage of you. Test your key controls, act on that information, and test them again. That is the only way to be prepared.”

    Senior Information Security Analyst and Security Tester

  • Fortune 50 Retailer

    “MITRE ATT&CK has been an enormous resource for us. We use it a lot with AttackIQ because we aren’t just concentrating on our EDR baselines. But there are known TTPs that specifically target similar industries to us. We use the MTIRE ATT&CK framework to determine what to go after and what to test next.”

    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.
