Frequently asked questions
What is security validation?
Security validation tests in practice whether security controls such as firewalls, EDR or access controls detect and stop real attack techniques. It adds proof of effectiveness to theoretical assessments.
Is this dangerous for live operations?
No. The scenarios are built to replicate attacker behavior without changing data or affecting systems.
How often should you validate?
Ideally continuously and after every significant change. XMfortress Validate can run on a schedule and start automatically after every fix.
