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.

    “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.”

  • 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.
