40% of Environments at Risk--Is Yours One of Them? Explore insights from 136 million simulated attacks in the Picus Blue Report and uncover critical security gaps.

Benchmarking Security Effectiveness: Insights from Picus Blue Report

This research by Picus Labs, based on 136 million simulated cyberattacks, reveals that security teams still struggle to detect and prevent real-world threats. 40% of environments allow domain admin access, only 12% of attacks trigger alerts, and macOS security lags far behind Windows and Linux.

• Attack paths remain open. 40% of environments allow attackers to escalate to domain admin.
• Detection is failing. Only 12% of attacks trigger alerts, leaving threats unnoticed.
• Endpoint security gaps persist. macOS prevents just 23% of attacks compared to 60%+ for Windows and Linux.

Finding exposures isn’t enough. Without validation, security teams risk wasting effort on low-priority issues instead of tackling critical threats. Adversarial Exposure Validation (AEV) closes the gap between assessment and action, ensuring organizations prioritize exploitable risks, validate security controls, and continuously strengthen their defenses.
