Test Tools

The CyberRatings test and research teams have a combined security testing experience spanning more than five decades in various roles and levels. Our tests are conducted at the highest technical standards in our world-class lab, using a combination of technology partner and in-house tools.

Test Infrastructure

CyberRatings’ BaitNET™ system captures and replays malware, exploits, evasions and URLs. The live, real-time instrumented sandbox environment is a unique live test harness used for security effectiveness testing of all leading cloud and network security products. This innovative cloud-based test platform is built for realism, repeatability, flexibility and scalability:

  • Able to leverage up to 1,000,000+  “in the wild” malware samples from a variety of public and commercial sources.
  • Hosts a library of Exploit samples curated from 250,000+ published Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs).
  • CyberRatings’ exclusive Evasion repository of stealthing techniques and tactics has been developed in-house by our researchers. Each of 1000+ evasion techniques can be layered and combined with malware and exploit samples to create millions of unique threats that disguise and modify attacks to avoid detection.
  • 100,000+ malicious and suspicious URLs are gathered daily from open-source and commercial threat feeds, combined with threat data generated from testing.
