(406 Ratings)

Cymulate has been an exceptional platform for automated security testing and security posture assessment. The solution is frequently updated with new threat intelligence feeds from Cymulate's intelligence services, which allows us to continuously validate our environment against current attack techniques and threat scenarios. Additionally, the Exposure Management plataform has been very useful for correlating vulnerabilities and threats with real attack simulations. In practice this helps us better understand our actual risk exposure and prioritize remediation efforts based on validated attack scenarios and test results, rather than relying solely on theoretical vulnerability scores. Overall, based on our experience, Cymulate has provided greater visibility into security gaps and a structured way to continuously improve our security posture through realistic testing and risk-based prioritization.

I been using this tool for security validation and continuous testing , so my review has been best. This platform reduces a lot of manual effort by continuously testing the environment and giving clear insights into security gaps. The initial setup and understand the flow require quite more time especially for the beginners. overall it really works well for the security validation and improving overall security posture.

Generally easy to use and intuitive UI navigation. The analytics graphs are a bit confusing and not real helpful. Large library of scenarios and test assessments. They are quick to publish new scenarios based on current threat intel and known attack vectors. Event correlation with SIEM is not very well tuned or customizable. Would be much nicer if you were allowed to map more specific fields to what they call their Indicators of Compromise (IOC) fields. Event correlation with our EDR events were not very concise either. Agents have a way to go yet with maturing how you can customize them. There is a config.yaml file on the agent but you can't set all agent behavior attributes in the file, which seems odd since it is there, why not allow you to put all possible values in that config file. A good product but has a ways to go yet before it is great. They have however added functionality since my initial review and appear to continue to innovate.
