SimSpace is named the sole Sample Vendor in the cyber range / high-fidelity simulation category in the Gartner® Emerging Tech: Simulation Twins Will Separate the Competition in Exposure Management Services Report.
Our Key Takeaways
Simulation twins are replacing traditional security testing models
Legacy approaches like penetration testing and BAS are giving way to continuous, simulation-powered validation that enables safe, always-on exposure testing without impacting production environments.
Continuous threat exposure management (CTEM) requires real validation, not assumptions
Organizations are stuck in discovery and prioritization. Realistic simulations in replica production environments provide the missing validation layer by delivering empirical proof of exploitability and real attack paths.
Security is shifting from reactive testing to continuous resilience
Cyber range simulation technology enables ongoing purple teaming, attack path visualization, and preemptive validation, helping organizations move from episodic testing to continuous assurance.
Show the board proof of resilience, not sterilized guesswork
Translate technical exposures into business outcomes like financial risk reduction, control effectiveness, and business continuity, delivering board-level insights.
