How to Automate Cyber Defense Validation and Reduce Risk

This webinar examines the limitations of traditional penetration testing and vulnerability scanning, particularly their inability to scale or provide contextual exploit validation. It highlights how organizations are flooded with vulnerability data yet lack clarity about which weaknesses truly pose operational risk. The session emphasizes the disconnect between vulnerability counts and attacker behavior.

Through a live demonstration, the session shows how automated attack emulation identifies exploitable attack chains, validates compensating controls, and maps findings to MITRE ATT&CK techniques. The focus is on prioritizing remediation based on real exploitability rather than theoretical severity. The conclusion reinforces the importance of continuous validation to reduce exposure in dynamic environments.
