Custom threat assessments have long depended on open-source tools – with complexity, limited reliability and no formal support. While commercial red team tools brought stability and automation, these tools limited testing to out-of-the-box attack scenarios.
Cymulate Threat Studio removes the complexity of attack customization and streamlines the creation of both single-action scenarios and advanced, multi-stage attack chains.
With a user-intuitive solution to craft custom threat scenarios, Cymulate Threat Studio gives security teams the expertise and flexibility to prove prevention and detection against organization-specific threats – all without requiring the expertise of an experienced red teamer.
Streamline Custom Attack Creation and Validation
Cymulate Threat Studio streamlines the creation, customization and reuse of sophisticated attack simulations without requiring advanced expertise. With an intuitive attack scenario workbench, Cymulate guides users to combine custom scenarios with the extensive library of pre-built actions that can be easily tailored to specific attack tactics and techniques.
Beyond simplifying creation of custom attack scenarios, Cymulate enables seamless configuration and execution of assessments at scale. Security teams are equipped to rapidly close identified security gaps from assessments by generating detection rules and automatically pushing mitigation of IoCs.
Customize and Manage Attack Scenario Library
Cymulate Exposure Validation provides security teams with a robust attack resource library that includes prebuilt files, execution methods and URLs. With Cymulate Threat Studio, users can seamlessly expand this library by adding and configuring new resources, including custom files, URLs, execution methods, payloads and even phrases. Cymulate makes managing custom resources simple by allowing users to easily view resources and modify, as necessary.
Each new resource configured can be tailored to specific operating system platforms and assigned a custom risk level to reflect its criticality. Assessments map to MITRE ATT&CK tactics and techniques and assigned custom tags. This flexible and extensible approach allows organizations to continuously adapt 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.

Build and Orchestrate Attack Flows with Ease
Cymulate Threat Studio empowers security teams with flexible, easy-to-use tools for building and customizing single or multi-chained attack simulations that reflect real-world adversarial behavior. Cymulate makes it easy to customize individual attack actions as well as create and visualize complex, multi-step attack chains through an intuitive interface. Key capabilities include:
Scenario creation – Create new attack chains with a simple workflow that guides you through each stage and option to include choose from more than 100,000 actions.
Scenario customization – Select custom resources when fine-tuning attack scenario action configurations such as files, URLs, scripts and email content to mirror the exact conditions you want to test.
Resource library expansion – Upload and tag custom resources including payloads, URLs, files and phrases. Assign risk levels and map to MITRE ATT&CK tactics and techniques and assign custom tags.
The example below represents the rapid creation of a custom advanced chained attack scenario, comprised of three configured actions with custom resources. Running this advanced, chained threat simulation 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.
