Scenario Based Security Testing
Mimic real-word attacks from vectors which are most relevant to the business in question.
OVERVIEW
Real-life assessments to evaluate prevention, detection and response capabilities
Relying solely on efficiency metrics to gauge the success of security operations may overlook a crucial question that all security leaders must address: How effective are people and controls in thwarting, detecting, and responding to cyber threats?
Through scenario-based testing conducted by Satius’s seasoned team of consultants, organizations can validate the genuine efficacy of their capabilities. This entails simulating a diverse array of adversarial tactics and offering recommendations to fortify the protection of critical assets.
Benefits of scenario-based testing
BENEFITS
Scenario-based testing represents a specialized variant of offensive security assessment. Unlike conventional penetration testing, which concentrates on revealing vulnerabilities, scenario-based testing aims to evaluate the effectiveness of cybersecurity controls against particular adversarial tactics and behaviors. It aids in addressing crucial inquiries such as:
- How effective are security technologies at preventing, detecting and responding to threats?
- Are there any network security blind spots that persistent attackers could exploit?
- How good are security analysts at differentiating genuine incidents from false positives?
- Are Blue Team security analysts able to shut down advanced and sophisticated attacks?
- Do in-house security teams have the know-how to remediate breaches?
- Are incident response plans in place to address threats and manage compromises?
PURPOSE
Validate the effectiveness of security operations
Scenario-based testing serves as a prevalent method to evaluate your organization’s capability in preventing, detecting, and responding to threats. Unlike a Red Team Operation, which replicates a comprehensive cyber-attack, scenario-based testing is a more targeted assessment typically centered on a specific adversarial tactic. Consistent scenario-based testing fosters a culture of ongoing enhancement, equipping your security operations team to effectively combat current and emerging threats.
Assessment
Custom assessments
Satius Security’s scenario-based testing service can be tailored to help evaluate your organization’s ability to detect and respond to a range of security risks. The many scenarios and tactics that we can replicate include:
- A supply chain compromise
- Installation of malware
- Data exfiltration by an employee or contractor
- A spear phishing campaign to harvest credentials
our framework
The MITRE ATT&CKâ„¢ framework
Scenario-based testing can be aligned to a range of adversarial behavior frameworks. One of the most common is the Adversarial Tactics, Techniques and Common Knowledge (MITRE ATT&CK), which outlines the methods adversaries use to compromise, exploit and traverse networks. The MITRE ATT&CK Framework is divided into 11 groups of TTPs, all of which can be replicated by scenario-based testing.
