Cymulate, a market leader in Extended Security Posture Management, Recognized in the 2021 and 2019 ‘ASTORS’ Homeland Security Awards Program, is pleased to announce Cymulate’s Extended Security Posture Management (XPSM) Platform, has been Nominated to Compete in the 2022 ‘ASTORS’ Awards Program.

Cymulate’s Breach and Attack Simulation solution is part of its industry-setting XPSM platform and leverages the MITRE ATT&CK® framework end-to-end, enabling companies to challenge, assess and optimize their cyber-security posture against the evolving threat landscape, simply and continuously.

The platform helps security professionals control their environment and provides out-of-the-box, expert and threat intelligence-led RISK assessments, simple to use for all skill levels, updated 24/7.

HOW IT WORKS

Cymulate facilitates managing your security posture 24X7X365 within minutes and based on facts, in just three simple steps:

The XPSM platform provides an open framework for ethical hackers to create and automate red and purple team exercises and security assurance programs tailored to their environment and security policies.

Cymulate’s Breach and Attack Simulation solution is the first vendor to be deployed with three additional fundamental security pillars: Attack Surface Management, Continuous Automated Red Teaming (CART), and Advanced Purple Teaming in one solution.

(When new cyber threats emerge, you can have confidence that your valuable assets are protected. Cymulate’s powerful continuous and automatic Extended Security Posture management solutions give cybersecurity professionals the confidence they need to make data-driven and intelligence-led decisions. With easy-to-understand dashboards constantly assessing their attack surface, endpoint security, web gateways, email gateway, and more, security professionals can explain and rationalize their security posture with up-the-minute information.

This year Cymulate launched a co-managed solution, Amplify, which is an extension of its BAS solution. Amplify is a human-powered offering designed to accelerate the implementation and optimization of their continuous security assurance.

By providing an on-hand advisor, Amplify augments in-house security teams to better leverage Cymulate’s platform and manage the optimization of a network’s cyber-security posture, end-to-end across the entire MITRE ATT&CK® framework.

(Attaining the threat-informed defense necessary to improve and maintain your security posture is often deemed unattainable with limited resources and inadequate staffing. Courtesy of CREAplus and YouTube.)

Cymulate  eliminates blind spots by assessing the current security posture of an organization and establishes a security baseline for visibility and control.

For Cymulate’s customers with stretched security teams, Amplify helps them close security gaps quickly and efficiently, rationalizing technology, helping upskill staff, and improving processes.

Cymulate  has also recently added to its holistic security controls validation and posture assessment platform, dynamic dashboards which provide context by consolidating insights from across thousands of attack campaigns and scenarios. This way, Cymulate empowers security managers to make educated decisions in their cybersecurity strategy, prioritize workloads and reduce the risk substantially and quickly.

Cymulate has been deployed by hundreds of customers including Fortune 500 companies, achieved 100% revenue growth globally, and about 200% growth in North America in 2021 new bookings. The personnel increased 150% as operations extended across NAM, EMEA, and APAC.
