CST VerdictBased on our analysis of NIST CSF 2.0 coverage, core features, integrations, company size fit, here is our conclusion:
Security leaders at mid-market and enterprise organizations who need continuous validation that their detection and response programs actually work should run SCYTHE Managed BAS Service, not just annual penetration tests. The managed model means SCYTHE's team runs customized adversarial campaigns end-to-end while your blue team observes and improves in real time, which is how you actually close gaps instead of filing a report. Skip this if your organization lacks the incident response maturity to act on findings; a managed service only works when someone owns the remediation.
Mid-market and enterprise teams with mature EDR deployments will get the most from Filigran OpenAEV because it validates whether your existing detection stack actually catches real attacks instead of just assuming coverage. The platform's MITRE ATT&CK-aligned simulation library and AI-assisted scenario creation mean you're testing threats your environment actually faces, not generic templates, and the agentless architecture lets you start validating immediately without EDR replacement costs. Skip this if you need a turnkey solution that works without an EDR already in place; OpenAEV assumes you own the detection layer and want to stress-test it.
