Learn More About Security Validation Software
What is Security Validation Software?
The security validation software identifies the breaches that could occur and evaluates the overall effectiveness of security controls, whether they are hardware, software, appliance, or cloud-based. It answers the key questions, did your systems recognize the attack and were they able to thwart it?
It documents dwell time – the time elapsed between when an intruder defeats security prevention measures until someone notices and responds. It pinpoints configuration issues, identifies who and what might be targeting your organization or industry, and exposes the gaps across your people, processes, and technology allowing you to remediate the vulnerability.
Security validation extends from on-premises installations to the cloud. Security validation software supports continuous testing and evaluates attacks across these vectors
Recon – scans the internet and dark web for information about your organization and staff that an adversary can find and weaponize for attacks
Email – evaluates email security and vulnerability to malicious payloads
Web Gateway – tests HTTP/HTTPS inbound and outbound exposure to malicious or compromised websites
Web Application Firewall – tests whether attack payloads can breach your WAF
Phishing Awareness - simulates phishing attacks to detect weak links in your organization
Endpoint Security – runs simulations of ransomware, Trojans, worms, and viruses on a dedicated endpoint
Lateral Movement – following an initial compromise of a single system, tests whether intruders can gain access to and control of additional systems
Data Exfiltration – evaluates how well your controls prevent any extraction of critical information from outside the organization
Immediate Threat Intelligence – evaluates your security against the latest cyberattacks
Full Kill-Chain APT (Advanced Persistent Threat) –any attempt to bypass security controls across the entire cyber kill chain from attack delivery to exploitation to post-exploitation.
Security validation software platforms have a library of attacks that spans the spectrum of cyber threats and can be safely executed through production security controls. Vendor platforms and individual enterprises can map to the MITRE ATT&CK framework to obtain the latest threat information and remediation guidelines. This globally accessible knowledge base of adversary tactics and techniques is available free of charge to individuals and organizations.
Security validation software is an essential element of quality control testing. It eliminates the need to contact vendors as to whether their product or service is protected against a type of attack or vulnerability and removes the uncertainty caused by the different installation environments.
