Cymulate Automated Mitigation is a feature that enables organizations to build threat resilience and eliminate threat exposure by automatically updating security controls. It integrates with your existing security controls to push updates for immediate threat prevention, reducing manual intervention and accelerating response to new threats. [Source]
Cymulate Automated Mitigation works by validating exposures and identifying security gaps, then deploying targeted threat updates—such as indicators of compromise (IoCs) like file hashes, registry keys, and URLs—directly to connected security controls. This process can be triggered individually, in bulk, or automatically based on predefined rules, ensuring immediate threat prevention. [Source]
The main benefits include faster mitigation of threats, optimized prevention by pushing updates directly to controls, operationalizing Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM), and reducing dwell time by creating self-improving defenses that adapt to evolving threats. [Source]
Automated Mitigation eliminates the need for manual updates to security controls by automating the process of converting exposure validation into immediate threat resilience. Security teams can review findings and push mitigations with a click, aggregate bulk updates, or set up auto-fix rules for hands-off operation. [Source]
Cymulate can push indicators of compromise (IoCs) such as file hashes, registry keys, and URLs directly to connected security controls for immediate threat prevention. [Source]
After threat updates are pushed to relevant controls, Cymulate automatically retests those defenses to confirm that the mitigation is effective, providing immediate validation and proof of improved resilience. [Source]

Use automated mitigation to reduce security gaps and strengthen your threat response.
Automated mitigation is the process of directly updating security controls based on the results validation and testing from Cymulate Exposure Validation. This enhanced cyber resilience by providing immediate threat prevention for the threats that successfully bypassed controls.
CTEM requires the coordination of multiple teams, so automation plays a key role to reduce friction, accelerate action and free up resources to address more complex needs. The result of automation is faster mitigation of specific threats and greater threat resilience.
When Cymulate validates that an indicator of compromise (IoC) bypasses security controls, Cymulate makes the IoC available for users to push threat updates directly to the control via API integrations.
Without automated mitigation, Cymulate users can manually copy content or download files and feeds that can be directly applied to security controls.
