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.

  • “The ability to utilize our custom-built attacks was another thing we liked about the AttackIQ Security Optimization Platform. It does not matter how many machines the customer wants to test. A largescale simulation takes one-fourth or one-fifth as much time as it would take if we were performing the assessments manually.”

    “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.’”

    “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.”

    “AttackIQ was really the best of breed. There was no question that it was the right choice for us after leveraging the free resources through the Academy. AttackIQ is invested in the community and expanding the knowledge to cybersecurity professionals. There’s much value and integrity in that. I look forward to this in partnerships. We leverage AttackIQ Academy as an onboarding process for new hires. Both current analysts have gone through every training module and certification. It’s a great training resource. Finding a solution like AttackIQ, where we can train our existing staff and augment the need for full-time red team practitioners on board, is huge.”

    “With other vendors I’ve dealt with in the past, I might submit a support case, and three weeks later I’m wondering whether anyone has read it. By contrast, my team will drop a message in the AttackIQ Slack channel, and more times than not, they’ll get a message within the hour saying, ‘Can you hop on a videoconference right now so I can help you fix it?’ That has been great.”

    “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.”

    “We ran very intensive attacks to see how far they could get in the organization. Being able to roll out agents, then pull back and redeploy if needed, was the big selling point for AttackIQ.”

    “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 big benefit of AttackIQ is that the platform works across both Windows and Linux servers, giving us broad coverage. The insights from AttackIQ help us show clients where in the kill chain they are most vulnerable and how they can shift left to identify malicious behavior more rapidly.”

    “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.”

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.
