ONE PLATFORM. EVERY VALIDATION.

Autonomous Exposure Validation Platform

Discover exposures, validate exploitability, prioritize and deploy the fixes that matter.

the new requirement

From exposure awareness to exposure decisions

The old operating model was built for slower exposure cycles. The new model has to produce evidence-backed action.

Picus Autonomous Exposure Validation Platform

Assessment finds exposure. Picus proves what’s exploitable, turns it into a defensible decision, and keeps it current as your environment changes.

  • Picus BAS

    Breach and Attack Simulation

    Continuously tests what your EDR, SIEM, firewall, and WAF actually block and detect against the newest attacker techniques, then ships the fixes and re-validates that the gap closed.

  • Picus APV

    Autonomous Pentesting

    Executes real exploit chains against reachable assets, showing what an attacker can actually reach and do, not what a CVSS or EPSS score predicts. Live validation, run safely in production.

  • Picus EXV

    Exposure Validation

    Proves exploitability without firing an exploit, covering the restricted assets no live test can touch and the CVEs with no public or safe exploit, for a defensible verdict on day one of disclosure.

Frequently Asked Questions

Security validation reduces cyber risk by verifying that an organization’s cyber security program is effective at defending its critical assets against the latest threats. 

Without consistent validation, security teams can never be confident that security controls and processes are working as expected.

Due to the ever-changing threat landscape and IT infrastructure drift, security validation is a process that must be performed frequently.

Only by performing automated security validation can organizations obtain the insights they need to stay on top of their security posture and proactively identify and respond to risks sooner.

The Picus Security Validation Platform’s threat library is updated on a daily basis, ensuring security teams can simulate the latest threats. New emerging threats with actionable IOCs are added to the Picus Platform within 24 hours of disclosure.

The Picus Security Validation Platform is licensed as a yearly subscription, which includes access to its entire threat library and unlimited simulations. The platform is comprised of five individually licensed products that can be licensed based on the validation use cases most relevant to an organization.

The Picus platform is delivered as software-as-a-service (SaaS). In addition to the cloud-based deployment (available in multiple regions globally), it can also be deployed on-premises for organizations with strict regulatory requirements. For specific use cases, the Picus platform also supports fully air-gapped networks (environments w/o any connectivity to the outside world).

Yes. To meet the highest data protection and operational security standards, the Picus Platform is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant.  Request a copy of our report here.
