4-Stage Validation Journey

Stage 1

VERIFY

Building the Foundation of Security Confidence

In today’s complex security landscape, organizations often assume their security deployments are functioning as designed. However, critical gaps can emerge:

  • Security features may remain disabled
  • Signature databases and protection rules lack automatic updates
  • Log forwarding capabilities are inactive
  • Device overload impacts detection capabilities
  • Time synchronization issues across devices

Our Approach

Drawing from years of security expertise, we’ve developed a comprehensive validation methodology to ensure your security infrastructure operates as intended. Through daily automated validation checks, we verify that every component of your security stack performs optimally.

Validate your security configurations and baseline controls

Network security infrastructure (NGFW, IPS, WAF)

Endpoint security solutions

Email security gateways

Container security systems

Data loss prevention (DLP) tools

Deception technologies (Honeypots)

Application security controls

OT/ICS security systems

Solution Details

01. Configuring scheduled tasks for operational validation of each security product

02. Validators executing validation actions according to scheduled tasks

03. Atlas generating and delivering operational validation reports based on results

Key Benefits

  • Automated validation of security product operations, feature activation, configuration accuracy, log transmission, and time synchronization
  • Ensures protection coverage
  • Maximizes security investment ROI
  • Provides actionable insights for security posture improvement

Real Case

A large manufacturing enterprise deployed multiple security products including NGFW, honeypots, and endpoint EDR.

Stage One validation revealed critical gaps:
  • 80% of honeypot deployments failed to detect basic reconnaissance
  • Critical time synchronization gaps exceeding 10 minutes
  • IPS performance degradation under high traffic conditions
Post-implementation results:
  • 94% honeypot effectiveness
  • Synchronized security infrastructure
  • Optimized IPS performance under peak loads

Stage 2

EVALUATE

Measuring Defense Effectiveness Against Real Threats

Modern enterprises face increasingly sophisticated threats while struggling to:

  • Assess security effectiveness against current attack techniques
  • Validate defense capabilities across the kill chain
  • Measure security control effectiveness quantitatively
  • Keep pace with evolving threat landscapes
  • Identify protection gaps across security layers

Our Approach

DigiDations summarizes essential protective functions for security devices. By weekly executing various recent attack actions, it validates detection modules across different security areas and uses a quantitative scoring system for capability assessment. This helps users understand the defense capabilities of security products against various attacks and take appropriate mitigation measures.

Validate how effective are your security products

Network security infrastructure (NGFW, IPS, WAF)

Endpoint security solutions

Email security gateways

Container security systems

Data loss prevention (DLP) tools

Deception technologies (Honeypots)

Application security controls

OT/ICS security systems

Solution Details

01. Configuring scheduled tasks to validate capabilities across security products

02. Validators executing large volumes of latest-generation validation actions according to scheduled tasks

03. Atlas generating and delivering capability validation reports based on results

Key Benefits

  • Comprehensive view of security effectiveness across all controls
  • Quantifiable metrics for security investment decisions
  • Gap analysis for targeted improvements
  • Real-time visibility into security posture
  • Evidence-based security optimization

Real Case

A financial institution’s security team questioned their defense effectiveness after experiencing phishing and zero-day breach incidents.

Our validation revealed:
  • WAF detection rate of only 65% against emerging attacks
  • Email security gateway missing 50% of targeted phishing attempts
  • EDR coverage gaps in critical business segments
Post-implementation results:
  • Increased WAF detection rates to 95% through enhanced rules and configurations
  • Improved phishing detection to over 90%
  • Achieved comprehensive EDR coverage across all business units

Stage 3

ANALYZE

Validating Detection and Correlation Capabilities

Organizations with mature SIEM/SOC platforms face increasingly complex challenges in threat detection and analysis:

  • Massive daily log volumes obscuring real threats
  • Unvalidated correlation rule effectiveness
  • Uncertainty in detection coverage across the attack surface
  • Limited threat hunting capability validation

Our Approach

DigiDations collects attack techniques from threat organizations and organizes them into scenarios using the kill chain or MITRE ATT&CK framework. It systematically validates the correlation analysis and threat hunting capabilities of SIEM/SOC platforms, allowing users to create more rules that improve alert accuracy and reduce alert fatigue.

Solution Details

The DigiDations Atlas platform offers 1,900 built-in scenarios with various validation actions. Users can customize scenarios to complete Stage Three validation, triggering alerts for security products and correlation analysis.

01. Create validation scenarios for threat actors (initial access, C2, endpoint execution)

02. Execute multi-stage correlation actions with multiple validators.

03. Generate and deliver correlation analysis reports based on results.

Key Benefits

  • Evidence-based validation of correlation rules
  • Significant reduction in alert fatigue
  • Enhanced detection accuracy and coverage
  • Improved threat hunting capabilities
  • Optimized SOC team efficiency

Real Case

A major internet company invested significantly in its SIEM platform but struggled to identify genuine threats amid millions of daily security logs, especially after an internal data breach.

Our validation revealed:
  • Lateral movement detection correlation rule coverage under 60%
  • Log collection interruptions in critical data sources
  • False positive rate for high-risk alerts exceeding 40%
Post-implementation results:
  • Increased detection coverage to over 90%
  • Reduced false positive rate to under 10%
  • Streamlined log collection and analysis
  • Enhanced threat hunting effectiveness

Stage 4

OPTIMIZE

Perfecting Incident Response

Even with established security operations, organizations face critical challenges in incident response:

  • Difficulty in accurately assessing security team response capabilities
  • Lack of validation mechanisms for emergency response procedures
  • Challenges in quantifying MTTD and MTTR
  • Limited objective assessment of ticket workflow efficiency and handling quality

Our Approach

DigiDations collects various attack techniques from threat organizations and organizes them into scenarios, regularly conducting purple team exercises to execute these threat scenarios. Atlas will integrate with internal ticketing systems to track the status of ticket workflows and will use logs to understand response and handling results. This helps users validate the complete process from alert detection to ticket resolution, assess operational efficiency, and evaluate MTTR.

Solution Details

Organizations conduct regular purple team exercises using the latest threat scenarios from the DigiDations Atlas platform.

01. Creates threat actor validation scenarios including initial access, C2, and endpoint execution

02. Deploys multiple Validators to execute multi-stage validation actions

03. Monitors security product alerts, operations platform performance, and ticket system efficiency
