The virtual CISO decision engine

Security tools find problems. BreachForge tells you what to do about them.

Model how a real attack moves through your organisation, what it reaches, which control stops it, and which change to your defences actually alters the outcome.

The problem

You do not have a findings problem.
You have a decision problem.

Scanner

Three thousand vulnerabilities

Plenty of findings, ranked by a severity score that cannot see which of your systems matters.

Penetration test

Fourteen weaknesses

Real proof, across an agreed scope, at one moment. Everything outside that boundary is untested.

Audit

Twenty seven recommendations

Sound guidance, and all of it competing for the same budget with no way to rank it.

The question none of them answer

What should we do next?

BreachForge connects those findings to your estate, your controls and the systems you cannot afford to lose, then shows which change closes the most paths to the things that matter.

How it works

See the attack before it happens.

01 / MODEL

Map the estate

Your components, your crown jewels, your controls at a maturity level rather than a tick. No agents, no access, nothing installed.

02 / ATTACK

Run the paths

Twenty two attack paths move through the model and stop at the first control that holds them.

03 / DECIDE

See what reaches what

Which paths get to your crown jewels, where each one was stopped, and which control did the stopping.

04 / RE-RUN

Test the change

Raise a control and run it again. Watch the paths that ran through it stop.

What it is

A model of your estate,
not a scan of your network.

22

Attack paths

Help desk social engineering, OAuth consent phishing, ransomware that destroys the backups, supply chain, and eighteen more. Each stops where a control holds.

112

Controls, eleven pillars

Identity, endpoint, network, cloud, application, data, infrastructure, security operations, resilience, third party and the human layer.

0

Systems touched

No agents, no scanning, no credentials handed over, nothing to install and no disruption to anything in production.

The question worth asking

Not which finding is worst.
Which change closes the most.

Three control improvements, modelled against the same estate, ranked by what each one actually shuts.

Endpoint hardening
Partial to enforced
2 paths
crown jewels still reachable
Phishing-resistant MFA and conditional access
Declared to enforced
7 paths
2 crown jewels no longer reachable
Immutable, isolated backups
None to enforced
1 path
ransomware stops short of recovery

Then you decide, knowing what each one buys. That is a security decision rather than another finding.

Being straight about it

What a model can tell you,
and what it cannot.

A model reasons from what it is told. That is its whole strength and its whole limit, and anyone who describes only the first half is selling you something.

It can tell you

Which attacks reach what matters

Each path stops at the first control that holds it, so you see how far it got, what stopped it, and which crown jewels were reachable.

It cannot tell you

That a weakness is exploitable

Nothing is attacked, so nothing is proven. Where a customer, an insurer or a certification scheme wants evidence a specific weakness can be used, that is a penetration test, and we will say so.

It can tell you

What changes when you change something

Raise conditional access from declared to enforced and re-run. That is the question a report cannot answer, because the report was written before you made the change.

It cannot tell you

What a control costs

The engine holds maturity, not money. It will tell you which change closes more paths. It will not tell you which is better value, because it does not know what either costs you.

It can tell you

Where your answers and your evidence disagree

Upload a configuration export and it is read in your browser and compared with what you recorded. Mark MFA as enforced, and if the export measures it lower, you are told. Nothing is silently corrected.

It cannot tell you

About the estate you did not describe

A server nobody listed is not in the model, and neither is the application a department bought on a card. It is honest about what it holds and silent about what it does not.

It can tell you

Which controls you have none of

Most organisations find a whole pillar empty and had not noticed. No mail authentication, no help desk verification, nothing against recovery testing. An empty pillar is a finding on its own.

It cannot tell you

Whether somebody is in there now

This is exposure, not detection. It does not watch traffic, read logs or raise alerts, and it will never tell you an intrusion is under way. If that is what you need, you need a SOC and this is not one.

Why that is on the page and not in a footnote

A model that agrees with you about everything is worth nothing.

The only thing this product can tell you that you did not already believe about yourself is where you are wrong. That is why the evidence check reports disagreements rather than quietly fixing them.

Why it is different

Your security posture should not be a PDF.

Point in time

A report captures what was true during an engagement. A cloud application arrives in March, a supplier connects in April, an identity policy changes in June, and in September somebody opens the January document.

A living model

Change the control, run the paths again, see what stopped and what still reaches what matters. The picture moves when the estate moves.

Built for decisions

Three people ask this differently.

No CISO

A structured way for leadership to see exposure and decide where the security budget goes, in language a board follows without a translator.

Working as a vCISO

Several named environments on one account. Model each client, switch between them, and every view follows. Discovery compressed from weeks to an afternoon, and evidence behind every recommendation you make.

Running a security team

Order the backlog by what each finding reaches rather than by severity alone, and show the work that closes the most paths first.

BreachForge

Know what can reach what matters.
Know what to do next.

BreachForge is a product of Cyber Spartans Ltd. The three control changes shown above illustrate how the engine reports a change. Numbers from your own estate will differ, which is the point of modelling it.
