Why risk another second of unknown exposure?
Upgrade to Cymulate in three easy steps:

1. Show Proof

Provide license details for your current solution (AttackIQ, SafeBreach, or Mandiant).

2. Get Credit

Receive a buyout discount (up to 12 months) applied across your Cymulate contract.

3. Reduce Risk

Begin validating exposures with Cymulate, no financial overlap.

Pentera

Threat exposure validation requires optimizing defense, scaling offensive testing and increasing exposure awareness. While Pentera is useful for identifying security gaps with attack path validation, it lacks the depth that Cymulate provides to fully assess and strengthen defenses.

Picus Security

Picus might be suitable if you’re looking for a breach and attack simulation (BAS) vendor with an on-prem option, but if you’re looking for the most complete exposure validation platform that covers the full-kill chain, as well as cloud control validation, Cymulate is the better choice.

NetSPI

NetSPI is an excellent choice if you are looking for a penetration testing as a service (PTaaS) vendor. But if you want to independently assess and strengthen your organization’s defenses, NetSPI’s approach to automated exposure validation will limit you. Cymulate is recognized by both Gartner and G2 as a leader in exposure validation, with a track record of continuous innovation.
