## What does Adversarial do?

Adversarial is a cybersecurity company that offers an integrated security program management platform built around a proprietary framework called TRIC — Threats, Risks, Incidents, and Compliance. The platform is designed to function as a unified system of record for security operations, connecting four interdependent components rather than treating them as separate functions.

The four pillars of the TRIC framework are:

- Threats: Maintains a living "Threat Profile" that reflects the organization's current threat environment, serving as the contextual baseline against which all risks and incidents are scored.
- Risks: Aggregates and normalizes risk data from multiple sources, scoring each risk against the active threat profile to prioritize what could go wrong before it does (leading indicators).
- Incidents: Tracks and scores security incidents on the same record and using the same methodology as risks, covering everything from routine events to major breaches (lagging indicators).
- Compliance: Generates governance artifacts such as board decks and policy documentation that are grounded in the underlying system of record data rather than manually assembled reports.

The core premise of the platform is that security programs require holistic integration — compliance, operations, risk, and threat intelligence must share a common data foundation to be meaningful. The company draws an analogy to financial reporting, arguing that a cyber board deck requires a system of record in the same way financial statements require a general ledger.

Adversarial targets organizations seeking to unify their security program management across risk, compliance, and incident tracking under a single, data-driven platform.
