Adversarial Exposure Validation (AEV) is a cutting-edge technology that simulates potential cyber-attacks on organizations, allowing teams to uncover vulnerabilities and implement necessary defense strategies. Unlike traditional security measures that merely check compliance, AEV encourages teams to adopt an attacker's mindset. This approach, recognized in the Gartner Market Guide, amalgamates various security testing methods, enabling dynamic and ongoing assessments of security measures. AEV's goal is to enhance resilience against attacks by continuously adapting and providing insights into how real-world attackers might exploit weaknesses.
Cybersecurity involves both playing the good guy and the bad guy. Security teams cannot be focused on just ticking boxes; they need to inhabit the attacker's mindset.
AEV is defined as technologies that deliver consistent, continuous, and automated evidence of the feasibility of an attack, emulating cyber-attacks to reveal vulnerabilities.
