UltraViolet Cyber Equinox measures detection coverage against MITRE frameworks

UltraViolet Cyber launches Equinox, an AI-automated platform mapping SIEM and EDR detection coverage against MITRE ATT&CK and ATLAS frameworks.

UltraViolet Cyber announced Equinox, a detection engineering platform from its TIDE team that maps existing detections and log sources against MITRE ATT&CK and MITRE ATLAS. It performs coverage analysis in under 30 minutes and recommends vendor or custom detections to fill gaps, with engineers reviewing and backtesting each recommendation. In one customer trial, mapped technique coverage rose from 59 of 222 techniques (26.6%) to 136 of 222 (61.3%) without increasing alert volume.

Threat Matrix: Mapping threats across cloud web applications

Microsoft released a Cloud Web Applications Threat Matrix, a MITRE ATT&CK-aligned framework mapping threats to cloud-hosted web apps and serverless platforms.

Microsoft introduced the cloud web applications threat matrix, which organizes attack techniques for cloud-hosted web apps and serverless platforms using MITRE ATT&CK tactics, from resource development through impact. The framework covers attack paths spanning application code, managed runtimes, workload identities, and deployment pipelines, cataloging techniques such as subdomain takeover, code injection in connected repositories, compromised registry images, exposed admin interfaces, and serverless trigger injection. It builds on Microsoft's earlier Kubernetes and storage services matrices to help defenders identify visibility gaps, prioritize hardening, and plan investigations in cloud-native environments.

PentestGPT: Open-source automated penetration testing agentic framework

Open-source PentestGPT runs autonomous LLM-driven penetration tests via Claude Code and Codex, with legacy human-in-the-loop mode supporting many providers.

PentestGPT, originally published at USENIX Security 2024 by Gelei Deng and colleagues, is an open-source framework that lets a large language model autonomously run penetration testing stages (recon, exploit, walkthrough) with no human in the loop, driving Claude Code or Codex CLIs. A legacy interactive mode uses three cooperating LLM sessions maintaining a Pentesting Task Tree and supports OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, DeepSeek, xAI, Qwen, Moonshot, and local models via Ollama. The tool sends anonymous telemetry to Langfuse by default, excluding command outputs, credentials, and flags, and is available free on GitHub.

Scytale expands vendor risk management with AI-powered TPRM tools

Scytale launched AI-powered third-party risk management in its Vendors module, automating vendor discovery, risk scoring, and continuous vendor posture monitoring.

Scytale added AI-driven TPRM capabilities to its Vendors module, combining automatic vendor discovery from SSO providers and integrations with AI enrichment and dynamic risk scoring. The platform now continuously monitors vendors for breaches, data exposures, and vulnerabilities via third-party intelligence APIs, with proactive email notifications and auto-generated audit-ready security reports. It integrates with cross-framework control mapping for SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, HIPAA, and SOX ITGC. Scytale cites Verizon's 2026 DBIR, which found 48% of breaches involved a third party, up 60% year over year.

Attack Chains, Not Just Attack Surfaces: Why Testing Individual Techniques Misses the Point

Filigran introduces Attack Chaining in OpenAEV to continuously simulate multi-stage attack paths, exposing gaps that isolated MITRE ATT&CK technique testing misses.

Filigran announced Attack Chaining, a new scenario type in its OpenAEV platform that links individual techniques into automated, continuously-run multi-stage attack paths, using each step's real output (credentials, tokens, open ports) to branch dynamically toward a final objective. The article cites Filigran's State of Threat Management report, in which 93% of security leaders reported a business-impacting cyberattack in the past 12 months, 88% said AI accelerates attackers, and 84% blamed siloed tools and disconnected testing. The 2025 DGFiP breach is cited as an example where individually survivable weaknesses chained into a major intrusion. The feature includes conditional chaining logic, live attack path mapping, structured findings for identifying chokepoints, and predefined scope and safety guardrails.
