Breach & Attack Simulation (BAS)
You Spent Crores on Security Tools. BAS Tells You If They Actually Work.
Breach and Attack Simulation (BAS) services for Indian enterprises. Continuous automated validation of security controls against MITRE ATT&CK techniques. Find gaps before attackers do.
What Is Breach & Attack Simulation (BAS)?
Breach and Attack Simulation (BAS) is the continuous, automated testing of your security controls against real-world attack techniques mapped to the MITRE ATT&CK framework. Unlike penetration testing (which is periodic), BAS runs continuously — validating that your firewalls, EDR, SIEM, email security, and other controls are detecting and blocking attacks at every stage of the kill chain.
Think of it this way: penetration testing is like a fire drill once a year. BAS is like a smoke detector that tests itself every day. Both are necessary — the drill tests your team's response, while the detector ensures the system works continuously.
BAS simulates hundreds of attack techniques — phishing delivery, malware execution, lateral movement, data exfiltration, command and control communication — and measures whether your security controls detect, alert, and block each one. The result is a clear, quantified scorecard of your actual defence effectiveness.
Why Your Business Needs This
Indian enterprises invest heavily in security tools — SIEM, EDR, firewalls, email gateways, DLP — but rarely validate whether these tools work together effectively. In our experience, 40-60% of security controls in Indian organisations have gaps — rules that are too broad, signatures that are outdated, log sources that are not feeding the SIEM, or alerts that nobody monitors.
BAS quantifies these gaps. Instead of assuming your ₹1 crore SIEM deployment is protecting you, BAS tells you exactly which attack techniques it detects, which it misses, and where your security investments need to be redirected.
For organisations with SOC teams, BAS provides continuous validation that detection rules are working — catching configuration drift, rule degradation, and blind spots before real attackers find them.
What You Get
Our Approach
Platform Deployment (Week 1): We deploy BAS agents in your environment and integrate with your security tools — SIEM, EDR, firewalls, email gateways, and network monitoring.
Initial Simulation (Week 1-2): We run a comprehensive simulation covering 200+ attack techniques across the MITRE ATT&CK framework. Each technique is tested and scored — detected, alerted, or missed.
Gap Analysis (Week 2-3): We analyse the results, identify detection gaps, and prioritise remediation based on the attack techniques most commonly used against Indian organisations.
Remediation and Re-testing (Week 3-6): We help tune your security controls — SIEM rules, EDR policies, firewall configurations — to close detected gaps. Each fix is validated through re-simulation.
Continuous Monitoring (Ongoing): BAS runs on a scheduled basis — weekly or monthly — to ensure that new gaps are not introduced through configuration changes, tool updates, or new attack techniques.
Real Results for Indian Businesses
A banking group in Delhi deployed BAS across their environment and discovered that their SIEM detected only 35% of simulated attack techniques. After 8 weeks of tuning guided by BAS results, detection improved to 78%. The remaining gaps were addressed through additional security tool deployment.
An IT services company in Bengaluru found through BAS that their EDR was not detecting fileless malware techniques — PowerShell-based attacks, WMI abuse, and living-off-the-land binaries (LOLBins) all bypassed detection. EDR policy tuning based on BAS findings closed 90% of these gaps within 3 weeks.
A manufacturing company in Pune used BAS to validate their SOC team's detection capability and found that 45% of critical SIEM alerts were not being reviewed because they were buried in low-priority noise. Alert prioritisation changes based on BAS data reduced mean time to detect from 72 hours to 4 hours for critical attack techniques.
