Why it matters
- Attackers iterate when the first attempt fails.
- Security testing should adapt to target behaviour while staying safe and authorised.
- Adaptive testing is how ThreatCanary moves beyond static plugin logic.
Adaptive Testing
Adapt test selection and depth when the target requires more than predefined checks.
Deterministic evidenceScope-aware executionAdaptive capability
Capability architecture
Adaptive Testing: context, validation and evidence.
This capability contributes to the same platform outcome: understanding realistic attacker exposure and proving what matters.
ThreatCanary approach
- Use validation results, errors, behaviours and graph context to choose next safe steps.
- Escalate to human approval when testing becomes sensitive or uncertain.
- Retain deterministic evidence for each decision and outcome.
What it validates or reveals
- Target-specific weaknesses.
- Paths that static checks would not cover.
- Where additional approval, tooling or research is required.
Evidence and outputs
- A clear explanation of the exposure, affected assets and likely attack path.
- Reproducible evidence suitable for analysts, developers and risk owners.
- Prioritisation based on exploitability, business impact, sensitive data and chainability.
- Owner, remediation and workflow context that can move into Jira, Slack, SIEM or reporting.
