Picus Security

Picus Security, the leading security validation company, gives organizations a clear picture of their cyber risk based on business context.

[Picus Security @PicusSecurity]

Attackers do not care about CVSS scores.

100,000 vulnerabilities. The real risk hides in low-severity exposures that chain into a path to your crown jewels.

@volkanerturk on why attack path context beats severity scoring.

@su13ym4n For the technical side of php2shell, our breakdown covers both CVEs, the fixed versions and what to watch for in your logs. Read more: https://t.co/AYf4IcbFRq

A version number is an inventory fact. Evidence is what your controls did when the attack arrived. @su13ym4n on what php2shell taught us. Read more: https://t.co/0u7VB4sOER

“Don’t approach this as just a tool investment. Approach it as a holistic security discipline.” Melike Ates of Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen Airport on making CTEM a practice the whole organization owns. Read more: https://t.co/rplpOlD6Si

We’re at the FS-ISAC 2026 Fall Summit in Austin, Oct 26-29. Meet our team at booth #25 to talk about closing the speed gap with AI-powered attackers. Book a meeting: https://t.co/PqfbGXLpnA

An attack path test stops at the first control that blocks it. Every control behind it goes untested in that run. Test each technique on its own to see what is prevented, detected or missed. Read more: https://t.co/ZRhn4snp6A

Your CLI may say PHP is patched while PHP-FPM still runs the old binary. Restart every worker and check the runtime behind each site for php2shell. Read more: https://t.co/6HgPGHnOJI #PHP #VulnerabilityManagement

Every game needs a power-up. In Exposure Rush, it's the one that tells you which exposures are actually exploitable before you spend hours on them.

CISA warns about SafePay ransomware in advisory AA26-293A. The group has at least 600 victims. It often goes from first access to encryption within 24 hours. Read more: https://t.co/ZEpitbW2Wr #Ransomware #StopRansomware

Start small with an automated pentesting tool. Test one critical app path in week one. Widen the scope once findings reach the right owner. By day 90, it runs on demand and re-tests every fix. Read more: https://t.co/ZtlYHUB01t

Setting up an internal red team raises practical questions. Tom Parker and Picus co-founder @su13ym4n work through methods, opsec, org fit, and detection testing with @DarkReading Thu Oct 22, 1 PM EDT.

BlueMoon needs three bugs in a row: a Chrome V8 type confusion (CVE-2026-85046), a V8 sandbox escape (CVE-2026-87491), and a Windows kernel flaw (CVE-2026-85880) that works only on older builds.

We’ll be at National Cybersecurity Connect 2026 in Jakarta, Oct 28-29, showing how Picus tells you within hours if you’re exploitable, whether your controls stop the attack, and how fast you can respond. Visit us at booth #D07, Bidakara Hotel. #Cybersecurity #SecurityValidation

In your next triage meeting, start with findings that sit on a path an attacker could follow to a mission system, because fixing one link there closes a real route.

#Pentesting

[Picus Security @PicusSecurity]

SAMA CSF expects maturity Level 3 or higher, where controls must be demonstrable, and Level 4 adds measured effectiveness. Time-stamped results from testing controls against real attack techniques give you both.

On-prem, multi-cloud, SaaS. One security team needed to know which vulnerabilities actually posed a risk. With Picus, it verified a 98–99% block rate on Windows endpoints and flagged overlooked CVEs for remediation.

Red teaming should go beyond proving that an exploit works.

Join @tomwparker and @su13ym4n to discuss how to build an internal red team that runs realistic adversary simulations and tests detection and response.

Every fix your team finishes is work worth protecting. Before you close the ticket, safely re-run the attack and confirm the control stopped or detected it.

AI in cybersecurity set the agenda at IT Solutions Day 2026 in Mexico City. As a Gold Sponsor, we took it to the attacker side with Francisco Espinosa’s talk and a live demo that drew a crowd. Thanks to @MapsDisruptivo for hosting. Until the next one!

338M+ attack simulations examined. 69% overall prevention. Just 37% of post-compromise attacker actions blocked.
