Why validate your cyber defenses with manual, infrequent testing when you could automate real-world TTPs? Traditional approaches are resource-intensive and can’t scale to support the complexity of multiple environments and constantly evolving threats.
To build and scale custom offensive testing, you need a modern solution that’s easy-to-use and allows you to quickly create customized attack scenarios, execute continuous validation and prove resilience against threats unique to your organization.
Accelerate Custom Attack Creation
Cymulate Exposure Validation includes an option for Custom Attacks that streamlines the creation of relevant, sophisticated attack simulations. With a user-friendly platform, security teams can quickly build, customize and reuse advanced individual or chained attack simulations. The platform delivers a user-friendly workbench that simplifies scenario design and enables continuous validation and rapid response. For missed detections, tailored SIEM, EDR and XDR detection rules are provided for fast and easy integration into security technologies
Expand Attack Resource Library
The Cymulate platform empowers security teams with a robust attack resource library that includes prebuilt files, execution methods and URLs. This allows for rapid customization of attack simulations to mirror real-world threats. Users can seamlessly expand this library by adding and configuring new resources, including custom files, URLs, execution methods, payloads, and even phrases.
Each new resource can be tailored to specific operating system platforms and assigned a custom risk level to reflect its criticality. Furthermore, the attack can be mapped to relevant MITRE ATT&CK tactics and techniques. This flexible and extensible approach allows for highly granular threat emulation that adapts to evolving attack surfaces and organizational needs.
“Cymulate makes advanced security testing fast and easy. When it comes to building custom attack chains, it’s all right in front of you in one place. You can access the full Cymulate library or build your own attack actions.”
– Mike Humbert, Cybersecurity Engineer at Darling Ingredients Inc.
Easily Create and Customize Attacks
Cymulate empowers security teams with flexible, easy-to-use tools for building and customizing chained attack simulations that reflect real-world adversarial behavior. Whether starting from scratch or modifying existing scenarios, the platform enables rapid creation and deployment of tailored attack sequences aligned with your specific validation goals. The Cymulate platform makes it easy to visualize and understand complex, multi-step attack chains through an intuitive interface.
Key capabilities include:
Refine Existing Attack Scenarios – Easily use existing attack scenarios to modify configuration variables to ensure relevant to specific environment
Create New Custom Attacks – Easily create new attack chains with a user-intuitive interface guiding you through each stage and allowing you to choose from over 100,000 actions.
Customize Attack Chains – Fine-tune chained attacks by easily modifying configuration for timing, file downloads, URLs and email content to mirror the exact conditions you want to test. In addition, add or remove actions from our extensive action library.
Here’s an example that represents the rapid creation of an advanced chained attack scenario, comprised of three configured actions with custom resources. Running this advanced chained threat simulation assesses an organization's threat resilience for the specific attack configurations and validates cybersecurity defenses across identity management and endpoint policies.
Mimikatz Execution – Used to extract sensitive credentials, including usernames, domain names and passwords
Remote Execution with PsExec – Leverages stolen credentials to remotely launch an application on a target system
Malicious File Download – Delivers and executes a harmful payload on the compromised endpoint
