NetSPI Wins Big with Breach and Attack Simulation

And the winner is… BAS! 

Since the launch of our Breach and Attack Simulation (BAS) enhancements in 2022, we’ve helped companies spanning all sizes and sectors improve their threat detection capabilities and move away from a ‘secure by default’ mindset that has rendered ineffective against the evolving and complex threat landscape. In fact, after implementing BAS, one NetSPI client saw a 500 percent detection coverage increase YoY! 

And the results go well beyond client testimonials, as NetSPI’s BAS offering has been recognized by two of the industry’s most prominent awards in 2023. NetSPI has been named:  

1.  “Breach and Attack Simulation Solution of the Year” by the CyberSecurity Breakthrough Awards, and 
2. “Cutting Edge Breach & Attack Simulation” by Cyber Defense Magazine’s (CDM) Top InfoSec Innovators Awards 

Cyber Defense Magazine’s Editor, Yan Ross, commented on NetSPI’s BAS solution saying, “We scoured the globe looking for cybersecurity innovators that could make a huge difference and potentially help turn the tide against the exponential growth in cyber-crime. NetSPI is worthy of being named a winner in these coveted awards and consideration for deployment in your environment.” 

Both recognitions signify the importance and longevity of BAS, especially during a period of heightened cyber attacks and resource-constrained security teams. These awards further prove the value of in-depth detective control validation and the impact continuous testing can have on the industry’s future. 

Why Breach and Attack Simulation? 

With NetSPI data showing only 20% of common attack behaviors being caught by Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR), Security Information and Event Management (SIEM), and Managed Security Service Provider (MSSP) out-of-the-box solutions, security teams need a way to continuously simulate and track real attack behavior. BAS solves this ongoing problem and has become a powerhouse solution and critical component to any tech stack – allowing organizations to extend their security controls and better detect attacks across the kill chain.  

BAS works by combining the AttackSim cloud-native technology platform with hands-on counsel from our expert penetration testing team to deliver a continuous 360-degree view of an organization’s detective controls tested against real-world attack Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTPs).
