Organizations worldwide are investing heavily in cybersecurity, with global spending nearing $200 billion annually. But just because you’ve invested in security controls, it doesn’t mean your security is under control.
Traditional methods such as manual penetration testing and red teaming, while valuable, have significant limitations. They are resource-intensive, expensive, and only provide a snapshot of your security posture at a single point in time. This approach leaves organizations with dangerous blind spots, potentially vulnerable to threats that emerge between testing cycles.
Security Control Validation is the answer to manual, point-in-time pen-testing. It’s automated and ensures key security controls in your environment are tested and validated on a continuous basis while optimizing the controls for better protection. It allows you to:
Optimize Existing Security Investments:
- Validate that your security controls are functioning as intended and can prevent breaches.
- Ensure that the tools you’ve invested in are optimized for maximum effectiveness.
Measure Continuous Improvements:
- Establish a security baseline and track improvements over time.
- Adapt to the evolving threat landscape and adjust controls accordingly.
Manage Configuration Drift:
- Maintain visibility into changes within your IT environment and the impact on your security posture.
- Prevent undetected changes from introducing vulnerabilities.
Even if you’ve deployed the most expensive endpoint and cloud solutions that money can buy, if you’re not continuously testing and validating your security controls and running breach-and-attack simulations, you’re leaving your organization susceptible to things like financial loss, operational impact and downtime, brand erosion, data leakage and exploitation, and more.
