Hypotheses

Hypothesis-Driven Testing

Use observations and graph context to ask testable security questions instead of only running static checks.

Evidence traceApproved scopeTarget-aware testing
Capability architecture

State the security claim before running the test.

ThreatCanary converts context into an explicit hypothesis with prerequisites, expected evidence and a governed validation method.

01

Why it matters

  • Modern environments contain custom APIs, bespoke auth, business logic and novel combinations.
  • Static test libraries cannot anticipate every target-specific weakness.
  • Hypotheses make testing intentional and auditable.
02

ThreatCanary approach

  • Generate hypotheses from exposure, API behaviour, vulnerability intelligence, drift and analyst input.
  • Assign priority, validation steps, safety constraints and expected evidence.
  • Track lifecycle from proposed to tested, confirmed, rejected or retest required.
03

What it validates or reveals

  • Candidate attack paths.
  • Custom validation plans.
  • A clear record of why a test was run and what it proved.
04

Evidence produced

  • Hypothesis and supporting target context.
  • Selected test and decision rationale.
  • Confirmed, rejected or unresolved verdict.
