Picus Security overview

What is Picus Security?

Picus Security Validation Platform is a security validation software that enables organizations to identify, validate, and remediate exploitable vulnerabilities across digital infrastructure. The platform automates prioritization of critical issues across siloed data sources, validates exposures in real time, and deploys one-click mitigations to close security gaps. It is designed for cybersecurity professionals in enterprise environments and supports industries with stringent security requirements such as healthcare, financial services, and industrial operations. The solution helps security teams focus on exploitable vulnerabilities rather than theoretical threats.

The platform includes integrated modules for exposure validation, security control validation, attack surface validation, cloud security validation, attack path validation, and detection rule validation. Exposure validation confirms which vulnerabilities are exploitable in the specific environment. Security control validation tests the effectiveness of preventive, detective, and responsive controls. Attack surface validation identifies potential entry points across networks and applications. Cloud security validation addresses cloud-native configurations and misconfigurations. Attack path validation maps potential intrusion routes through interconnected systems. Detection rule validation ensures that monitoring tools can detect simulated threats accurately.

The platform leverages an AI engine called Numi AI to interpret data, connect contextual information, and guide remediation decisions. A knowledge graph consolidates and harmonizes disparate security data silos to present a unified view of exposures and controls. This approach enables teams to shorten mean time to remediate from seventy-four days to fourteen days and to lower service level agreement violations for high and critical vulnerabilities. Automated workflows facilitate the deployment of countermeasures and maintain continuous visibility into evolving threat vectors.

Picus Security Validation Platform integrates with security information and event management, endpoint detection and response, next-generation firewalls, web application firewalls, and other security controls. The solution supports frameworks including MITRE ATT&CK, Digital Operational Resiliency Act, Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, and NIST Cybersecurity Framework. Application programming interfaces enable automated penetration testing, breach and attack simulation, and adversarial exposure validation. These capabilities provide actionable intelligence that assists security teams in optimizing their security posture and sustaining effective defenses over time.
