How we are different

Modern security teams face enormous challenges: a complicated security stack, changing compliance and regulatory requirements, AI-generated threats, tool fatigue, and alert overload. Traditional reactive security measures are no longer sufficient to keep up. Many organizations are turning to the five-phased Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) framework popularized by Gartner as a more proactive way to manage exposures—but operationalizing it has historically required stitching together disparate tools, datasets, and processes.

SafeBreach is changing that with a unified solution that operationalizes the full CTEM lifecycle. The solution is grounded in the SafeBreach Exposure Validation Platform, which provides the safe, scalable adversarial exposure validation (AEV) capabilities that underpin the entire CTEM framework. Building on this foundation, the new SafeBreach Helm AI agent unifies the platform's AEV capabilities with data and insights from a customer's existing security ecosystem to provide a complete 360-degree CTEM solution that ensures exposures are not only identified but continuously validated and resolved. SafeBreach Helm accomplishes this with a specialized set of capabilities aligned to each CTEM stage—Scoping, Discovery, Prioritization, Validation, and Mobilization—that users can initiate and engage with via simple, natural-language prompts.

Together, the CTEM by SafeBreach solution and SafeBreach Helm agent help organizations evolve from fragmented, reactive practices to a unified, intelligence-driven exposure management program—grounded in proven AEV, elevated by AI, and delivering the continuous, measurable resilience modern enterprises need.

The CTEM by SafeBreach solution also stands out in the industry because it:

  • Is purpose-built to meet the stringent safety and privacy requirements of mature enterprises, enabling security testing without impacting production environments. This approach has made SafeBreach the solution of choice for Fortune 1000 companies, particularly in highly regulated industries like finance, healthcare, and life sciences.
  • Is maintained by a world-renowned threat research team that has discovered more than 50 CVEs, manages the platform's extensive Hacker's Playbook with more than 30,000 attack methods, and provides critical content updates within 24 hours of emerging threats.
  • Is backed by a dedicated, award-winning customer success team that pairs customers with dedicated resources to ensure they can implement and get the most out of the solution.

Aside from our technology, SafeBreach expanded its global customer base to include customers in 34 countries and maintained an industry-leading 95% customer satisfaction rating for the third year in a row. The company was recognized on both the 2025 Global Top 100 and North American Top 100 Inspiring Workplaces list among industry giants like Equifax and Siemens and on Built In's 2026 Best Places to Work list, highlighting the company's significant efforts in developing a positive and inspiring people-first culture. Finally, SafeBreach released its inaugural State of the Breach Report in January 2026, which analyzes the results of millions of real-world attack simulations to provide never-before-seen insights into the state of enterprise cyber resilience. The report reveals where enterprise security programs perform well, where modern threats evade defenses, and how trends differ across industries and architectures to help organizations improve resilience.

Through its newly released CTEM by SafeBreach solution, SafeBreach Helm AI Agent, time-tested AEV capabilities, and world-class research and customer success teams, SafeBreach empowers Fortune 1000 companies around the world to implement a more proactive and continuous security strategy that supports true cyber resilience.
