NetSPI Detective Controls Testing is a service that validates the effectiveness of detective security controls through focused attack simulations. The service tests endpoint security solutions, network security solutions, SIEMs, and MSSPs to identify gaps in detection capabilities, including misconfigurations and missed detections. The service offers multiple simulation packs targeting different environments and attack vectors: - MITRE ATT&CK simulations that cover tactics, techniques, and procedures across the cyber kill chain - Linux-focused testing for remote code execution, shell configuration modifications, and data extraction - Azure Cloud testing for authenticated and anonymous attacks including command execution and credential guessing - MacOS simulations for command execution, LaunchAgent persistence, and data exfiltration - Ransomware simulations based on real-world campaigns from threat actors like CL0P, BlackCat, and Fin7 - ESXi hypervisor testing for brute force, ransomware, and environment-specific threat vectors The testing combines expert-driven methodologies with AI technology to simulate real-world attacker behaviors. The service provides organizations with visibility into how attackers view their environment and assesses organizational readiness to defend against threats. Testing focuses on validating that security tools operate effectively and can detect common threat vectors and high-risk threats.
