The 2024 MITRE ATT&CK Evaluation results will provide cybersecurity leaders with critical insights into vendor performance against simulated real-world threats. A Cynet-hosted webinar will summarize key findings and offer practical guidance on leveraging the evaluations. The upcoming assessments will feature nuanced scenarios, including ransomware and North Korean tactics.
### Meeting Takeaways:
**Context and Importance:**
– Security leaders face increasing pressure to make informed decisions regarding cybersecurity solutions due to evolving threats.
– MITRE Engenuity ATT&CK Evaluations serve as a vital resource by simulating real-world attack scenarios to assess vendor performance.
**Webinar Announcement:**
– A webinar will be conducted following the release of the 2024 MITRE ATT&CK Evaluation results to provide key findings and practical advice from Cynet’s CTO, Aviad Hasnis.
**Evaluation Overview:**
– MITRE ATT&CK Evaluations are independent assessments that test how well cybersecurity products can detect, respond to, and report on various attack techniques based on the MITRE ATT&CK framework.
– The framework categorizes adversary tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) to help organizations understand threats and assess product performance.
**Differentiating Factors of MITRE ATT&CK Evaluations:**
1. **Real-World Conditions:** Simulations of specific threat actors provide insights into actual performance in realistic scenarios.
2. **Transparent Results:** Detailed insights into how platforms respond to TTPs without assigning scores or rankings allow organizations to choose what best fits their needs.
3. **Alignment with MITRE Framework:** Results that integrate with existing threat models help identify and address detection or response gaps.
4. **Broad Participation:** The 2023 evaluation had 31 participating vendors, giving a comprehensive view of the cybersecurity landscape.
**Expectations for 2024 Evaluations:**
– The upcoming evaluations will feature smaller, more targeted emulations focusing on:
– Adaptable ransomware-as-a-service targeting Linux and Windows.
– North Korean tactics aimed at breaching macOS.
– Cybersecurity leaders are encouraged to monitor their tools’ strengths and weaknesses to improve defenses and resilience against new threats.
**Call to Action:**
– Interested participants should register for the upcoming webinar to gain insights post-2024 evaluation release.
