NetSPI Detective Controls Testing
Simulate Attacks & Validate Security Controls
Measure the efficacy of your detective security controls against real-world attack behaviors by blending expert-driven testing, research, and powerful AI technology.
Focused Attack Simulation Packs
Understanding how an attacker views your environment and how ready your organization is to defend it is critical. NetSPI Detective Controls Testing validates that your security tools are operating effectively across endpoint security solutions, network security solutions, SIEMs, and MSSPs. Our team of experts help identify critical gaps, including misconfigurations and missed detections, and provide focused testing (simulation packs) to fit your environment.
MITRE ATT&CK View entire network
Provides a holistic view of detection controls across the entire network.
- Simulates TTPs across the cyber kill chain, prioritizing common threat vectors, attacker behaviors, and high-risk threats identified by our expert analysis.
Linux Open-source
Addresses the challenges that come with Linux and open-source software.
- Focuses on tactics often used to exploit Linux environments, such as remote code execution, shell configuration modifications, data extraction, and more.
Azure Cloud Entra tenant & users
Helps gather correlations between common cloud attacks and log sources.
- Authenticated and anonymous attacks against Azure including command execution, credential guessing, sensitive data gathering, and more.
MacOS Apple
Target attack vectors specific to Mac systems in enterprise environments.
- Addresses challenges of Apple’s macOS with simulations for Command & Script Interpreter execution, LaunchAgent persistence, data exfiltration and more.
Ransomware Early detection
Prevent lateral movement, privilege escalation, and encryption of data.
- Simulates TTPs and behaviors from real-world ransomware campaigns, including specific threat actors such as CL0P, BlackCat, and Fin7.
ESXi Virtual machines
Validate hypervisor-specific controls to mitigate risk and protect virtual machines.
- Simulate real-world adversarial tactics, such as brute force, ransomware, and threat vectors that are common in ESXi environments.
NetSPI detective controls testing was very valuable because it showed us that there are attack venues and kill chains that could potentially go undetected.

Benchmark Security Detection Tools Fine tune security controls
Despite having numerous security tools positioned to detect threats, most organizations fail to tune them effectively. NetSPI Detective Control Testing executes attack simulations in a safe environment to determine whether you have gaps or misconfigurations within your security controls, response processes, and procedures.
- Discover gaps in detective controls, processes, and procedures
- Determine if attacks were logged, detected, alerted, prevented, or responded to
- Obtain remediation guidance from security experts and additional resources
Strengthen Ransomware Defenses Simulate real-world ransomware attacks
NetSPI’s research team monitors behaviors, patterns, and TTPs of real-world ransomware attacks, and uses this intelligence to develop focused testing that replicates ransomware operators.
- Assess how well security controls can detect ransomware
- Act on prevention guidance and continuously fine-tune detection controls
- Detect ransomware earlier in the cyber kill chain to prevent full-scale attacks
