In their own words
FourCore ATTACK
FourCore ATTACK is an adversarial exposure validation platform that simulates cyberattacks to assess how security controls respond. Its threat intelligence connects current threats with an organization’s environment to help prioritize tests, and controlled campaigns emulate adversary tactics, techniques, procedures, indicators, and artifacts. Coverage includes endpoints, email, WAF, network segmentation, SIEM, EDR, XDR, firewalls, DLP, and exfiltration controls. Results map to MITRE ATT&CK techniques and classify outcomes as detected, partially detected, blocked, or missed. Campaign evidence can connect simulated behavior with control responses, telemetry, alert timing, and recommended next actions. Teams can generate or refine Sigma, YARA, Snort, and configuration changes, then retest after updates. Listed integrations include CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, Microsoft Sentinel, QRadar, Proofpoint, Cisco Secure Email, and ServiceNow. FourCore describes the product as AWS-hosted SaaS, with on-premises solutions available by discussion. Lightweight Windows and Linux agents connect to the SaaS platform. Simulations are designed not to disrupt or destroy target systems. Pricing is on request.
Picus Security Platform
Picus Security Platform helps security teams validate attack surfaces, exposures, and security controls to prioritize risks and remediation. It simulates attacks against controls such as EDR, SIEM, firewalls, WAFs, and email gateways, then supports remediation and retesting. The platform combines automated penetration testing, breach and attack simulation, and exposure validation. Its threat library contains more than 30,000 TTPs and thousands of scenarios; critical new simulations are added under a 24-hour SLA. AI Threat Builder converts inputs such as a blog URL, PDF, CVE ID, or threat actor name into an ATT&CK-mapped simulation. Picus says it integrates with more than 75 security technologies. Deployment options include SaaS, on-premises, and fully air-gapped environments, with yearly subscriptions and unlimited simulations. Pricing is available on request, and a 14-day free trial is listed. The trial includes one simulation agent, a ransomware-only library, and recommendations for one technology. After the trial, recurring simulations stop and simulation results are no longer accessible.
