External Attack Path Validation

External attack path validation

Proactively test how attackers gain entry through exposed services, web applications, and authentication points. Validate which perimeter weaknesses are truly exploitable and eliminate the conditions that enable compromise.

Credential & Identity Testing

Credential & identity testing

Test whether leaked or compromised credentials can be used to access external-facing services. Validate identity-driven attack paths and remove excessive permissions and exposures that allow attackers to gain a foothold.

External Attack Path Visualization

External attack path visualization

Visualize the complete external kill chain mapped to MITRE ATT&CK, from reconnaissance to validated impact. Gain full attack context to prioritize remediation and guide targeted, root-cause fixes.

Phishing Attack Emulation

Phishing attack emulation

Emulate phishing campaigns to determine whether attackers can capture credentials or execute malicious payloads. Identify the human and technical weaknesses that allow social engineering to result in compromise.

Data Exfiltration Risk Assessment

Data exfiltration risk assessment

Validate whether sensitive data can be extracted from exposed assets. Strengthen detection, containment, and data protection controls based on proven cyber risk.

Security Control Evaluation

Security control evaluation

Evaluate how your WAF, perimeter firewalls, and identity providers detect and respond to real external attack techniques. Finetune detection rules and adjust perimeter defenses to prevent exploitation of internet-facing assets.

Executive & Compliance Reporting

Executive & compliance reporting

Translate validated external attack paths into clear, executive-ready reporting. Provide defensible proof of exposure reduction and remediation progress for boards, auditors, regulators, and cyber insurers.
