SCYTHE

SCYTHE is a continuous Adversarial Exposure Validation platform for enterprise security teams. It runs MITRE ATT&CK-mapped adversary campaigns, including multi-stage campaigns based on named threat actors, to check whether controls detect, alert, block and respond. Results map to ATT&CK coverage and identified gaps. AI can generate campaigns from plain-language threat descriptions, but execution requires human approval. Deployment options include cloud SaaS, on-premises, hybrid and air-gapped environments. Listed integrations include CrowdStrike Falcon, Microsoft Defender, SentinelOne, Cortex XDR, Splunk, Microsoft Sentinel, IBM QRadar, Google Chronicle, Elastic SIEM, ServiceNow and Jira. SCYTHE says it connects bidirectionally with SIEM, SOAR, EDR, ticketing systems and security controls. Its tests are described as controlled, configurable, logged and auditable; destructive capabilities require explicit authorization. Included attack surfaces are Windows, macOS, Linux, cloud and OT/ICS. The company identifies itself as SOC 2 Type II certified and describes an annual independent security audit. Pricing is custom-quoted based on environment scope, and there is no free plan, though a free trial is available. Managed validation is also offered.
