    OPERATIONAL CTI · THREAT-INFORMED DEFENSE

    CTI stops at the report.
    SCYTHE doesn't.

    Your threat intelligence tells you which adversaries are targeting you and what TTPs they use. SCYTHE proves whether your defenses would actually stop them by running those exact techniques against your real environment.

    THE PROBLEM

    You have intelligence.
    You don't have proof.

    Security teams invest heavily in threat intelligence feeds, analyst subscriptions, and ISAC memberships. But when a new APT report lands, the process is always the same: read it, note the TTPs, flag it for the team, file the PDF. Nobody tests whether those controls would actually stop the techniques described.
     
    “

    We read about Volt Typhoon, added the TTPs to our tracker, and updated our detection rules. Six months later we realized we’d never verified a single rule actually fired in our environment.

    Intelligence Without Evidence

    CTI tells you what adversaries are doing. It does not tell you whether your controls would stop them. That gap is where breaches happen.

    TTP-to-Test Is Manual and Slow

    Translating a threat actor profile into a testable emulation campaign takes days of analyst time — if it happens at all. Most teams don’t have the capacity.

    Rules Written, Never Verified

    Detection rules are written in response to CTI, then left untested. A parser change, a field rename, a policy drift — and your rule silently stops working.

    New Intelligence, No Immediate Action

    A new advisory drops — CISA, an ISAC, a threat intel vendor. Your team reads it. The question no one can answer: “Would we have caught this?”

    What SCYTHE Delivers

    Intelligence-led emulation. Evidence-based assurance.

    SCYTHE closes the loop between what your CTI program knows and what your security controls can prove — by operationalizing threat intelligence as real adversary emulation campaigns, continuously.

    🎯

    CTI-Driven Campaign Generation

    Feed any threat intelligence into SCYTHE — a report PDF, a STIX bundle, an ISAC advisory, or a direct API feed from Recorded Future, MISP, or OpenCTI. SCYTHE's AI extracts TTPs, maps them to ATT&CK, and builds an emulation campaign ready to run.

    Emulate Threat Actors, Not Scenarios

    SCYTHE emulates the specific techniques attributed to the threat actor targeting your industry — not generic scenarios. When a new advisory names a group, SCYTHE can have a campaign running against your environment within hours, not weeks.

    →Threat actor & campaign libraries (APT, eCrime)
    →Same-day emulation on new advisories
    →Multi-stage kill chain emulation, not isolated techniques
    📊

    Continuous Control Validation Against Your Threat Landscape

    Run CTI-informed campaigns on a schedule — weekly, or auto-triggered when new intelligence arrives. Know which of your active threat actors your controls detect, and which they miss, before an incident tells you.

    →Scheduled & change-triggered testing
    →Full detection chain: EDR → SIEM → SOC alert
    →Drift detection when rules break silently

    What SCYTHE Delivers

    From intel to evidence in four steps.

    SCYTHE operationalizes CTI through a repeatable, automated workflow, from ingesting intelligence to delivering measurable proof of control effectiveness.

    01

    Ingest

    Connect your TI feeds, paste a report, or pull from Recorded Future, MISP, or ISAC portals. SCYTHE ingests structured and unstructured intelligence.

    4×

    More CTI Validated Per Quarter

    Teams using SCYTHE run continuous emulation campaigns rather than one or two manual red team exercises per year.
    Hours

    From Advisory to Running Campaign

    A new CISA advisory, ISAC brief, or threat actor report becomes a running emulation campaign the same day — not weeks later.
    60%

    Reduction in Detection MTTR

    Because teams know exactly where their gaps are before an incident, response is faster and more precise when threats do appear.

    WHY IT MATTERS

     

    Stop assuming your controls work against the threats in your reports.

    Most CTI programs produce reports that end in a ticketing system or a Confluence page. SCYTHE transforms your threat intelligence investment into a continuous testing engine, so every advisory, every ISAC bulletin, every new APT profile translates into measured evidence of whether your defenses are ready.

    Before & After SCYTHE

    What changes when you operationalize CTI.

    ⚠️ Without Operational CTI
    ✕ Read a new Volt Typhoon advisory. Add TTPs to the tracker. File it.
    ✕ Write detection rules in response to a report. Never test them in production.
    ✕ Assume your EDR covers the threat actors in your industry sector.
    ✕ Board asks "are we protected from the threat actors in the news?" You answer with qualifications.
    ✕ CTI program produces reports. No measurable outcome for security controls.
    ✕ Gaps discovered during an incident, not before.
    ✓ With SCYTHE Operational CTI
    ✓ New advisory ingested. Emulation campaign running against production within hours.
    ✓ Detection rules written and immediately validated against real techniques in your environment.
    ✓ ATT&CK coverage map shows exactly which techniques from your threat actor profiles are detected vs. missed.
    ✓ Board question answered with measured ATT&CK coverage, detection rates, and MTTR data.
    ✓ CTI program produces emulation campaigns, evidence, and measurable control improvement.
    ✓ Gaps found continuously, fixed before attackers exploit them.

    common questions

    Frequently asked questions

    How does SCYTHE differ from using Atomic Red Team for detection testing?

    Atomic Red Team provides individual technique test scripts that require manual operation and produce no structured output for measurement. SCYTHE provides automated scheduling, bidirectional SIEM integration, coverage measurement against MITRE ATT&CK, regression tracking, and an enterprise-grade reporting layer — plus managed service options for teams without dedicated detection engineering staff.

    Can SCYTHE test detection rules without alerting our SOC?

    Yes. SCYTHE integrates with SOAR and ticketing platforms to tag or suppress alerts during controlled testing windows. You define the test scope and period so your SOC team can distinguish validation activity from real detections.

    How does SCYTHE handle multi-vendor log sources?

    SCYTHE validates the full detection chain from technique execution through log generation through SIEM parsing through alert correlation. If a detection gap exists due to a log source normalization issue rather than a rule logic issue, SCYTHE identifies where in the chain the failure occurs.

    What MITRE ATT&CK coverage can we expect to measure?

    SCYTHE customers typically discover they have effective detection for 30–50% of relevant MITRE ATT&CK techniques before starting continuous validation — and improve that coverage meaningfully over the first 90 days as regressions are identified and new detections are validated.

    Build detection rules with confidence they'll actually fire.
