Threat Management Tools

Q: What is the difference between threat simulation and penetration testing?

Penetration testing is a point-in-time assessment where human testers attempt to find and exploit vulnerabilities. Threat simulation (breach and attack simulation) continuously and automatically tests your security controls against known attack techniques mapped to MITRE ATT&CK. Pen testing finds novel vulnerabilities; threat simulation validates that your defenses work against known attacks on an ongoing basis.

Q: How does threat modeling help secure my applications?

Threat modeling identifies potential security threats during the design phase, before any code is written. By systematically analyzing data flows, trust boundaries, and attack surfaces, teams can prioritize which threats to mitigate architecturally rather than patching vulnerabilities after deployment. Common frameworks include STRIDE, PASTA, and attack trees.

Threat Management Tools FAQ

Common questions about Threat Management tools, selection guides, pricing, and comparisons.

What is a threat intelligence platform (TIP) and do I need one?

A TIP aggregates threat data from multiple sources (commercial feeds, open-source, ISACs, internal telemetry), normalizes it into structured formats (STIX/TAXII), and distributes indicators of compromise (IOCs) to your security tools. You need a TIP if you consume multiple threat feeds, want to correlate external intelligence with internal incidents, or need to share intelligence with peers and ISACs.
