Your controls say secure.Attackers say otherwise.Validate the truth.
Enterprise environments span cloud, on-prem, identity, OT, and SaaS — each a potential attack vector. Spakto continuously validates whether your defenses, people, and processes can actually stop modern adversaries across the full attack surface.
200+ security tools.
Do they actually stop attacks?
Enterprise Security Validation goes beyond compliance checkboxes — we emulate real adversaries across your full hybrid stack and measure exactly where your defenses hold and where they fail.
Full kill chain validation across hybrid infrastructure — cloud, on-prem, identity, OT
MITRE ATT&CK mapped across every tactic and domain with before/after scoring
Real adversary emulation — not checklists, not theoretical CVE scanning
Compliance evidence generation with automated control mapping (NIST, ISO, PCI)
Executive risk reporting with board-level dashboards and peer benchmarking
Drift detection between validations to catch configuration changes before attackers do
Attack Techniques Simulated
Infrastructure Domains

Typical Assessment Timeline
We validate across
your full stack.
Six interconnected domains, each validated with real adversary techniques against your actual toolstack and configurations.
Cloud Infrastructure
AWS, Azure, GCP misconfigs, IAM roles, storage exposure, serverless risks, CSPM validation
Identity & PAM
Active Directory, Okta, Azure AD, CyberArk PAM, Golden Ticket, DCSync, lateral movement paths
Endpoint / EDR
Detection coverage validation, EDR bypass, LOLBAS, endpoint hardening gaps, BYOD risks
SaaS Applications
O365, Salesforce, Workday API abuse, OAuth token misuse, data exposure, third-party connectors
On-Premises Networks
Lateral movement, segmentation bypass, legacy protocol abuse, east-west traffic control gaps
OT / ICS Systems
Air-gap validation, historian access paths, SCADA posture, IT-OT boundary enforcement
Kill chain coverage
across every tactic.
Every MITRE ATT&CK tactic validated across all 6 infrastructure domains with real adversary emulation — not checklist assumptions.
Six domains.
One quantified reality.
Post-engagement control effectiveness scores — every domain measured with before/after improvement tracking, critical findings ranked by impact.
Live attack simulation.
Real-time detection audit.
Watch a full adversary lifecycle unfold — every MITRE technique executed safely, every SOC detection logged with timestamp and mean-time-to-detect.
Your infrastructure,
mapped by adversaries.
Every attack path traced across 6 infrastructure domains — real traversal vectors, not theoretical risk scores.
From discovery to
remediation roadmap.
A structured validation framework built around your threat profile — not a generic template.
Asset Discovery & Scoping
Enumerate all in-scope assets across every domain, build threat profile, define rules of engagement
Adversary Emulation
Execute MITRE ATT&CK techniques across all 6 domains with SOC-blind and SOC-aware scenarios
Control Effectiveness Measurement
Quantify detection rates per tactic, MTTD per kill chain stage, blocked vs evaded counts
Reporting & Remediation Roadmap
Executive risk dashboard, CISO briefing deck, technical remediation backlog with priority tiers
What we measure —
and how we score it.
Every metric is designed to translate directly into board-level risk language and engineering remediation tickets.
Detection Coverage %
Percentage of kill chain stages successfully detected by SIEM and EDR
Mean Time to Detect (MTTD)
Average detection latency per adversary stage, measured in minutes from first action
Lateral Movement Score
Resistance to adversary east-west traversal across segmented network domains
Privilege Escalation Score
Ability to prevent privilege escalation from standard user to Domain Admin
Data Exfiltration Score
Resistance to data staging and exfiltration across DNS, HTTPS, and cloud sync channels
Overall Control Gap Score
Composite security posture rating weighted by asset criticality and threat likelihood
One engagement.
Three layers of insight.
Tailored deliverables for technical teams, security managers, and CISO/board — all generated from a single engagement.
Technical Teams
Security Managers
Board & CISO
When enterprises
call us first.
From board prep to incident readiness — enterprise validation is mission-critical across multiple business contexts.
Pre-Board Validation
Validate security posture and quantify control effectiveness before presenting to board with risk-reduction graphs and peer benchmarks.
Post-M&A Security Baseline
Establish comprehensive security baseline for acquired company, identify integration risks, and create a unified remediation roadmap with priority tiers.
Annual Program Effectiveness
Measure whether security investments translate to real risk reduction, validate continuous improvement trends, and justify budget allocation.
Regulatory Audit Preparation
Generate compliance-mapped evidence across NIST CSF, CIS Controls, ISO 27001, SOC 2, FedRAMP, HIPAA, and PCI DSS before external audits.
Incident Response Validation
Test IR playbooks against real adversary techniques, measure response times, and identify detection gaps before a real incident occurs.
Cloud Migration Risk Gate
Validate cloud security controls before moving critical workloads, ensuring identity and data protections match the on-premises security baseline.

Enterprise Security Validation FAQs
Frequently asked
questions.
answered
Traditional pen tests are point-in-time snapshots of external attack surface. Enterprise Security Validation is comprehensive, continuous, and measures control effectiveness across your full hybrid infrastructure. We validate whether your 200+ tools work together to stop adversaries, not just whether we can find vulnerabilities.
We require elevated access (Admin/Domain Admin equivalent) to simulate real-world adversary capabilities. We work closely with your SOC and security team to scope access safely and revoke it immediately post-engagement.
No. All techniques are designed for zero production disruption. We validate detection and response capabilities without executing actual attacks. We coordinate closely with your SOC and incident response teams.
Enterprise Security Validation supports alignment with NIST Cybersecurity Framework, CIS Controls, ISO 27001, SOC 2, FedRAMP, HIPAA, PCI DSS, and industry-specific regulations. We provide compliance-mapped reporting.
We recommend quarterly validations for most enterprises, with continuous monitoring between engagements. Some high-risk organizations validate monthly. Frequency depends on your threat profile, regulatory requirements, and risk tolerance.
Initial discovery and scoping: 2-3 days. Continuous emulation: typically 2-4 weeks depending on infrastructure complexity. Reporting and remediation planning: 1 week. Total engagement usually spans 4-6 weeks.
We use a risk matrix combining adversary likelihood, impact, and control effectiveness. Findings are categorized as Critical, High, Medium, Low with clear remediation guidance and executive risk scoring.
