AttackIQ Ready! 2.0 Introduces Continuous, Anywhere-Anytime Security Testing

AttackIQ, an independent vendor of breach and attack simulation (BAS) solutions and founding research partner of the MITRE Engenuity Center for Threat-Informed Defense (CTID), is unveiling AttackIQ Ready! 2.0, the latest iteration of the fully managed breach and attack simulation-as-a-service that empowers organizations to stay on top of the gaps in their security defenses.

AttackIQ Ready! targets the growing challenge of requiring consistent, on-demand security testing for enterprises to maintain a robust, adaptive defense posture. However, despite continuous testing being a necessity for most organizations, many are unable to keep up with the resource-intensiveness that traditional processes demand. 

With the latest iteration of AttackIQ Ready!, enterprises are equipped with new capabilities that introduce greater customizability and seamlessness to keep security postures adaptive and strong.

“At AttackIQ, we reject the idea that proactive continuous security validation of an organization’s cyber defenses is too expensive,” said Carl Wright, chief commercial officer at AttackIQ. “We believe every organization, regardless of size or expertise, can achieve a robust, threat-informed defense. That’s why we offer an easy-to-use platform for organizations of any size to proactively identify gaps in their cyber defenses.”

AttackIQ Ready! 2.0 introduces the following new capabilities:

• Seamless integration with Flex that allows users to expand their visibility with agentless test packages, runnable from a single testing interface

• Testing on-demand with new adversary and security control tests that can be executed at any time

• New customizations for which content in a scheduled testing is run by AttackIQ

• Detection validation with expanded security control integrations to test, tune, and enhance detection and response in real time

• Comprehensive reporting with advanced mitigations and recommendations

• Expanded test library of security control and adversary emulations, enabling enterprises to keep up with the latest threats

• Security validation test benchmarking to compare how your enterprise scores against others that run the same tests 

“Thriving in today’s uncertain world hinges on an organization’s ability to manage risk,” said Lewis Honour, director of offensive cyber security at WTW. “Data-driven decisions are fundamental to crafting a robust cybersecurity strategy. AttackIQ empowers organizations with the critical intelligence needed to anticipate and prepare for real-world cyberattacks.”
