Validate Zero Trust Through Continuous Security Testing
Test identity enforcement, segmentation, and automation controls to ensure your Zero Trust implementation performs under pressure.
Turn Zero Trust Strategy Into Proven Security Outcomes
The Old WayZero Trust by Configuration
- Policies deployed, but never tested
- Segmentation rules assumed to block lateral movement
- MFA and device trust configured once
- Tabletop exercises and design reviews
- No metrics for Zero Trust maturity
The AttackIQ WayZero Trust by Validation
Validate All 7 Pillars of Zero Trust Security
User
Verify that identity controls, Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), and access policies detect and block credential abuse and account compromise.
Device
Assess Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) effectiveness and test endpoint posture by simulating device-based attacks and policy evasion.
Network / Environment
Validate segmentation by testing lateral movement prevention and encrypted traffic enforcement.
Application & Workload
Emulate exploitation of internal services, APIs, and workloads to confirm runtime protections and interface hardening.
Data
Run exfiltration attempts to test encryption, data loss prevention, and data classification enforcement across endpoints and cloud.
Visibility & Analytics
Confirm that detection rules, SIEMs, and behavioral analytics surface real threats with actionable context.
Automation & Orchestration
Test your SOAR workflows, containment logic, and playbook execution using safe, simulated attacks.
How MITRE ATT&CK Powers Zero Trust Validation
AttackIQ uses the MITRE ATT&CK framework to align every test with known adversary behavior—so your Zero Trust validation reflects how attackers actually operate.
Map testing to techniques like credential abuse, lateral movement, and data exfiltration
Understand which controls block, detect, or miss known attack paths
Align Zero Trust maturity with threat-informed defense principles
Maximize ROI and Strengthen Zero Trust Execution

No. AttackIQ enables existing security and architecture teams to operationalize Zero Trust validation without requiring new org structures. Our platform supports collaboration across red, blue, and purple teams to test identity, device, and segmentation controls.
All testing is mapped to the seven ZTMM pillars—User, Device, Network/Environment, Application/Workload, Data, Visibility & Analytics, and Automation & Orchestration. Results help you track pillar maturity, identify enforcement gaps, and demonstrate measurable progress.
Zero Trust isn’t just about deploying tools—it’s about verifying they actually work. AttackIQ validates whether those controls block credential abuse, lateral movement, and data exfiltration as intended, so you’re not relying on configuration alone.
Yes. AttackIQ Command Center centralizes validation results so you can track control effectiveness, visualize trends over time, and align metrics with ZTMM benchmarks and internal goals.
