Cymulate

“The best thing is that within 24 hours, Cymulate enabled us to check our security systems and report the results to our CEO.”

“With Cymulate, we can present quantifiable data to the board and show a direct correlation between investments and the reduction in risk.”

“Cymulate is one of the easiest tools to test the overall security of your IT infrastructure. In our case with our endpoint security assessments, we have been able to detect a major breach in our security.”

“We didn’t realize how many different use cases a security control validation platform could provide. Cymulate does so much more than we expected.”

“The Cymulate Hopper capability helps us understand where our gaps are and what we need to do to prevent a real attacker from moving laterally within our environment and reduce the ‘blast radius.’”

“With Cymulate immediate threats intelligence, we're actually ahead of the curve and don’t need to wait for authorities to provide us with intel about emerging threats.”

“Cymulate enables us to test our defenses against the latest cyber threats as they emerge, prioritize remediation efforts and improve our security team's incident response skills.”

“Cymulate is the best-in-class for automated security validation. It offers the most breadth and depth of attack simulations and provides assessments against emerging threats.”

“We use Cymulate to simulate attacks and evaluate our SOC's (Security Operations Center) response. It allows us to validate that our tools and alerts are working and understand if our incident response processes need improvement, so that we are prepared in the event of a real attack.”

“My penetration testing team uses Cymulate to augment its penetration testing services and expand its efforts beyond targeted testing.”

“All security services in every corner of our organization had to be built up from scratch. Cymulate gives us end-to-end visibility to understand if our security controls and policies are working as expected in the different environments throughout the organization.”

“One of our regulatory requirements is continuous testing. We can now easily fulfill this with Cymulate BAS and its automated testing.”

“Cymulate is like the parent in the room. It makes sure the rest of your security tools are doing their jobs and protecting you while highlighting where there are gaps.”

“On the one hand, Cymulate enables you to validate your security controls easily, but it also provides you the results in a digestible manner to use when communicating with internal stakeholders.”

“The Cymulate MITRE ATT&CK Heatmap helps us easily visualize our gaps and coverage of the MITRE framework. We quickly understand if there are specific MITRE techniques or sub-techniques that we haven’t been able to detect, so we know exactly where we need to allocate our resources for better protection.”

“With Cymulate, we have many tests that we can run out of the box, like immediate threats assessments, endpoint security assessments, and APT-focused advanced scenarios. But we also can highly customize chained assessments. We decide what we want to run, how we want to run it and where we want to run it.”

“We are starting to use Cymulate for our incident response exercises, and we appreciate that we can customize the assessments directly to our needs. For example, we are creating attacks with chained activities that are suspicious enough that they will require investigation and validate that the team knows how to act and follow internal processes.”

“If we wanted to test against emergent threats before, it was all manual. Cymulate provides us with one curated list of IoCs, which we distribute to our EDR and web gateway to ensure we are protected against these new threats in the wild.”

“When we create a new detection rule in our SIEM that we can’t validate with historical logs, we use Cymulate assessments to generate the appropriate events and see if the rule was successful in its detection. The immediate feedback is useful when fine-tuning our SIEM and practicing detection engineering.”

“Cymulate is one of the only tools I know that can show internal stakeholders who have no knowledge of cybersecurity why cybersecurity is important and something worth investing in.”

“We use the Cymulate Continuous Automated Red Teaming phishing assessments to understand which of our employees might put us at risk of falling for a real phishing attack. It's important to have security controls in place, but it's also vital to reinforce good cyber habits with our staff.”

“Cymulate helps us evaluate whether a vulnerability is exploitable in our environment and enables us to prioritize remediation efforts. If there are compensating controls in place, we can prioritize remediating other high-risk vulnerabilities that are more likely to be exploited.”

“With Cymulate Breach and Attack Simulation, we continuously validate our controls to ensure they are working as expected. If we see any drift in a controls performance, we know where to focus our efforts. After following the platform’s remediation guidance, we can immediately retest to validate that our efforts were effective.”

“Cymulate is an effective way to provide assurance to stakeholders about new and emerging threats being exploited in the wild. When a new threat emerges, the Cymulate Threat Research Group develops an immediate threats assessment so we can immediately test the threat against our security controls and quickly determine whether we are safe. Usually, by the time an executive asks us if a particular new threat poses a risk to the society, we have already run the Cymulate assessment and can provide the results.”

“Cymulate allows us to easily present proof to external auditors of continuous control validation, threat assessments, remediation efforts and general assurance that we effectively manage our cyber risk. Because each audit is different, we use different functions of the Cymulate platform to fulfill the various requirements. We can present ourselves as a very mature organization with an effective cyber strategy.”
