Picus Security Platform vs Valitrix BAS 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.

Valitrix BAS Platform is a breach and attack simulation platform that continuously checks security controls against adversary techniques mapped to MITRE ATT&CK. Its library covers 200+ techniques across all 14 tactical categories. Agent-based simulations validate endpoint, email, network, and SIEM controls, using controlled, non-destructive synthetic payloads intended to avoid damage or production interruption. Teams can configure simulation scope, target systems, timing windows, and technique categories; Enterprise customers can add exclusions and restrict testing to selected network segments or system groups. Results are mapped to MITRE ATT&CK in real-time dashboards and exportable reports. Valitrix lists evidence reporting for ISO 27001, SOC 2, NIST, and Cyber Essentials. Agents collect simulation telemetry and control-response data for reports, not underlying business data. Named SIEM validations include Splunk, Microsoft Sentinel, IBM QRadar, and Elastic, while Enterprise API access supports workflows such as Jira and ServiceNow. Basic, Professional, and Enterprise tiers vary by agents, users, attack coverage, and support. Pricing is on request, and qualified Enterprise prospects can receive a scoped proof-of-concept engagement.
