Mandiant Advantage Security Validation vs. Picus Security

It is well-suited to larger enterprise environments and less well-suited to small businesses. You need some level of maturity to be able to fully utilize this tool, but overall it is fairly easy to get fully up and running within the environment, which is really nice. Well-suited if you have the budget for it and it saves on staff time to perform these functions. Not well-suited if you don't have a good budget in-place for your environment size.

If you want to analyze the full path focusing on the signatures it’s the best product in the market. If you want to test phishing, data exfiltration/DLP, DNS I don’t recommend Picus. Scenario based attacks also lacking. However Picus support is awesome and I like the development team. When we open a case, they’ll always return with the right answer
