Always Aware, Always in Control
What do you like best about the product?
The best thing about Picus is how it takes care of automated scans while keeping everything visible. Even if we overlook or forget a change in our security setup, Picus is quick to spot it and guide us to improve our defenses.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes, running certain scans or tests requires adding exceptions. Getting past 'Not Tested' statuses often depends on the involvement of knowledgeable system administrators who understand the environment and give the necessary support.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Picus helps us stay ahead by showing us exactly where our defenses might fail—before attackers get the chance to exploit them. It’s like having a constant reality check on whether our security tools are actually doing their job. This not only saves us time but gives us peace of mind.

Cyber Security Technologies Manager
What do you like best about the product?
I think, the platform's greatest strength is producing accurate and actionable outputs for security controls. Besides, It helps our customers to select the right product by testing the products with real world scenarios. Finally, It easy to deploy and there is nearly no maintenance effort required. The product's integration to the other systems are easy. The customer support is fast to find solutions to escalated problems.
What do you dislike about the product?
I haven't seen a downside about Picus yet.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In my point of view, there are two major problems that Picus addresses.
The first one is that, It validates if the security controls works as expected. When I detect a misconfiguration on my own, sometimes it is hard to make the system administrator to change the configuration. When I support my suggestion with simulation outputs, then it becomes easier to convince the system admins to correct the configurations.
The other one is that, my customers ask me which product they should purchase. Testing all of the candidate products with Picus simulations makes it easier to decide to select the best product.

Security Status with Picus Security
What do you like best about the product?
My favorite feature of Picus Security is its continuous and automated cybersecurity posture validation. Thanks to its Breach and Attack Simulation (BAS) capabilities, we can constantly test the effectiveness of security controls by simulating real threat scenarios and proactively identify vulnerabilities. This allows organizations to maximize the return on their security investments while providing the opportunity to address weaknesses before a potential breach. Furthermore, its ease of integration and detailed reporting features greatly support our decision-making processes.
What do you dislike about the product?
Given the value offered by Picus Security, it's generally difficult to point out a negative aspect. However, as constructive feedback for continuous improvement, more detailed and actionable recommendations for resolving identified vulnerabilities could be provided
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Picus Security addresses fundamental cybersecurity challenges by providing organizations with a clear, continuous understanding of their actual security posture. It solves the problem of unknown security gaps by constantly validating whether existing security tools like firewalls and EDRs are truly effective against real-world threats. Furthermore, it identifies and helps correct ineffective configurations within these controls that could leave an organization vulnerable. By continuously testing defenses against the latest attack techniques, Picus ensures that an organization is proactively prepared for an evolving threat landscape. Finally, it helps security teams cut through the noise by clarifying which vulnerabilities are truly exploitable and pose the highest risk, enabling them to prioritize remediation efforts effectively. Ultimately, this benefits organizations by providing continuous validation of their security, optimizing their existing security investments, significantly reducing their risk of a breach through proactive defense, and improving the overall efficiency of their security operations.
