Cymulate helps organizations address several cybersecurity challenges:

Lack of Continuous Validation: It provides continuous security validation and automated penetration testing, overcoming the limitations of periodic, point-in-time assessments.

Vulnerability Overload and Prioritization Issues: While VM tools identify vulnerabilities, Cymulate helps organizations prioritize remediation efforts by showing which vulnerabilities are exploitable in their specific environment and pose the highest risk. It provides context to help filter out noise and focus on what's exploitable.

Testing Security Control Effectiveness enables organizations to test and validate how well their security controls (such as email gateways, EDR, WAF, etc.) are performing against real-world attacks.

Evaluating Detection and Response Capabilities: It allows security operations centers (SOCs) to test their ability to detect, investigate, and respond to simulated threats, helping refine processes.

Responding to Emerging Threats: It allows organizations to quickly evaluate their security posture against newly identified threats and APTs within 24 hours, significantly faster than manual processes.

Resource Constraints for Manual Testing: It automates security testing, enabling organizations to increase in-house security testing without investing in or relying solely on an in-house red team or manual penetration tests. It improves team efficiency by scaling testing and focusing remediation.

Demonstrating Security Posture: It provides quantifiable data and reports that can be presented to management, boards, and auditors, proving security resilience and justifying investments.

Meeting Compliance Requirements: It helps organizations meet security testing and validation requirements for various compliance standards, such as PCI-DSS and NIST CSF.

Managing Security Drift: It automatically informs teams of security drift, allowing immediate action if controls aren't performing as expected.

Reducing Cyber Risk: By identifying and helping remediate gaps, Cymulate helps organizations reduce their overall cyber risk.
