Cymulate Unveils AI-Powered Automation for Threat Validation

Cymulate

Cymulate, a leader in threat validation, has unveiled the latest evolution of its flagship security validation platform. As a pioneer in breach and attack simulation (BAS) and automated red teaming, Cymulate continues to push the boundaries of automation and artificial intelligence (AI) to deliver an advanced, user-friendly threat validation solution. In an era where cyber adversaries deploy increasingly sophisticated tactics, the Cymulate Exposure Validation Platform harnesses AI to provide blue and red teams with the automation and accessibility needed to validate threats, remediate vulnerabilities, and enhance overall security posture.

Exposure validation empowers organizations to move beyond conventional BAS and automated penetration testing. By adopting the Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) strategy, security teams can validate their exposure based on a defined threat scope, contextually prioritize risks, and implement targeted security measures. This continuous and automated approach ensures organizations proactively identify and remediate vulnerabilities before they can be exploited.

“Security leaders have realized they need to address the most easily exploitable threats quickly and continuously. Cymulate is the first company to bring innovation and automation to our Exposure Validation Platform so security teams can close their biggest gaps and improve their defense posture before it’s too late,” said Avihai Ben-Yossef, co-founder and CTO of Cymulate. “We’ve made technologies like attack simulation and automated red teaming easy to implement with actionable insights. Customers are seeing results that reduce noise, clarify decision-making, and increase the return on cyber defense investments.”

The Cymulate Exposure Validation Platform empowers security teams by validating security controls against real-world threats and response strategies, identifying high-risk vulnerabilities, and developing a prioritized remediation plan. Key new features include:

  • AI-Powered Agent – Assists blue and red teams in crafting impactful validation tests, addressing best practices, industry-specific threats, and evolving attack chains derived from real-time threat intelligence.
  • Optimized Attack Simulations – Simplifies security assessments across the MITRE ATT&CK kill chain, including a comprehensive library of cloud and Kubernetes attack scenarios.
  • Enhanced Attack Scenario Builder – Generates detailed validation assessments using a library of over one million attack actions or customizable scenarios.
  • Modular and Dynamic Assessments – Continuously scans for emerging threats and ensures security teams stay ahead of evolving attack vectors.

A core strength of the Cymulate Exposure Validation Platform is its ability to deliver actionable, vendor-specific remediation strategies. Security teams can leverage their existing infrastructure to manually add optimization rules or rely on Cymulate to automatically deploy these rules across security controls, streamlining the entire remediation process.

“The Cymulate Exposure Validation Platform makes advanced security testing quick and easy. When it comes to creating custom attack chains, you have everything in one place. You can access the entire Cymulate library or create your own attack actions,” said Mike Humbert, Cybersecurity Engineer at Cymulate customer Darling Ingredients Inc. “As you start clicking and filtering, you have the ability to refine your tests, plan the assessment, and look at the results in detail.”
