CONTINUOUS BREACH ATTACK SIMULATION: A PRAGMATIC APPROACH TO YOUR SECURITY PORTFOLIO
This presentation looks at some guiding principles that make a case for using continuous breach attack simulation as one of the best ways to test and exercise your security posture. We examine the notion of abiding by the spirit of the compliance framework vs. the letter of that framework. We then discuss how you can get the most benefit out of your security controls through simulating real-world scenarios without risk to your environment. We then conclude with the positive impact that performing continuous breach attack simulation can bring to your communications up to the executive and board level.
