About Attack Path Validation
Picus Attack Path Validation (APV) is a powerful solution that combines automated penetration testing with attack path mapping to help security teams discover, visualize, and prioritize critical vulnerabilities.
APV simulates adversary movements, identifies critical vulnerabilities, and provides actionable guidance through the Picus Intelligent Adversary Decision Engine. Thus, you can proactively defend against high-impact threats, such as ransomware and targeted attacks.
Uncover hidden attack paths within your network before they’re exploited!
Attack Path Validation Features
Automated attack path mapping
Visualize high-risk attack paths, uncovering how attackers can navigate through your network to reach critical assets like domain admin privileges.
Real-world validation
Picus APV goes beyond discovery by simulating real-world attack techniques such as credential harvesting, kerberoasting, and lateral movement, confirming that attack paths pose actual threats.
Intelligent adversary decision engine
The decision engine mimics sophisticated attacker behavior, optimizing the path to the target using the most evasive and efficient tactics.
Actionable mitigation insights
Picus APV provides detailed recommendations for mitigating identified attack paths, allowing for quick network hardening and exposure elimination.
Timely vulnerability identification
Initiate targeted penetration tests from any network point, ensuring vulnerabilities are identified promptly for faster remediation.
Ransomware risk reduction
Determine which files are at risk of exfiltration, minimizing the chances of a successful ransomware attack and safeguarding critical data.
