MDR/SOC/XDR Validation Testing
Test the effectiveness of your security operations centre or managed detection and response service with realistic attack simulations.
Security Solution Validation
Security Solution Validation Testing evaluates the effectiveness of your Managed Detection and Response (MDR), Security Operations Centre (SOC), or Extended Detection and Response (XDR) services through controlled attack simulations.
Unlike traditional penetration testing which focuses on finding vulnerabilities, validation testing specifically targets your security operations capability by using known attack methods to stress test detection and response systems. We simulate real threat actor behaviour to evaluate whether your SOC can identify, analyse, and respond to threats effectively.
What We Validate
Detection Testing
Simulate realistic attack techniques to test if your security solution can detect malicious activities across endpoints, network, and cloud environments.
Response Validation
Evaluate the quality and speed of your security team's incident response, including alert triage, investigation, and containment actions.
Time-to-Detection
Measure how quickly threats are detected and escalated, ensuring your security solution meets agreed service level objectives.
Coverage Assessment
Identify blind spots in your detection and response capabilities across different attack vectors and techniques.
Why Validate Your Security Operations?
Validation testing provides independent verification that your SOC provider delivers on their service level agreements and can effectively protect your organisation. This is particularly critical for third-party SOC services where you're trusting external teams with your security monitoring.
Validate Your Security Investment
Ensure your security operations center or managed detection service provides the protection you're paying for. Validation testing gives you confidence that your security team can detect and respond to real threats effectively.
