RidgeBot
Automated penetration testing and vulnerability validation that continuously tests your defences with real attack techniques.
Where RidgeBot Fits in the Stack
RidgeBot is an automated penetration testing platform that continuously validates your security controls by executing real attack techniques against your environment. Unlike vulnerability scanners that identify potential weaknesses, RidgeBot proves exploitability.
Traditional penetration testing happens annually or quarterly at best. RidgeBot enables continuous security validation, ensuring that new vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, or security drift are identified and validated before attackers find them.
For organisations with Microsoft-centric environments, RidgeBot validates that your Defender configurations, conditional access policies, and security controls actually prevent the attacks they're designed to stop.
Platform Capabilities
- Automated penetration testing
- Vulnerability validation and exploitation
- Attack path discovery
- Continuous security assessment
- Risk-based prioritisation
- Compliance validation testing
How CriticalMatrix Uses RidgeBot
Security Baseline Validation
We deploy RidgeBot to validate that security configurations—especially Microsoft security baselines—actually prevent attacks. This proves the effectiveness of your security investments.
Vulnerability Prioritisation
We use RidgeBot to validate which vulnerabilities are actually exploitable in your environment, helping you prioritise remediation based on real risk rather than theoretical CVSS scores.
Continuous Security Testing
We implement continuous automated testing to identify security drift, misconfigurations, and new vulnerabilities as they appear, ensuring your security posture remains validated over time.
Engagement Patterns
Security Validation Assessment
A 2-4 week engagement to deploy RidgeBot, execute comprehensive penetration testing, and deliver a validated vulnerability report with exploitation evidence and prioritised remediation.
Continuous Testing Program
Implementation of ongoing automated penetration testing with scheduled scans, alerting on new vulnerabilities, and regular reporting on security posture trends.
Pre-Audit Validation
Targeted penetration testing before compliance audits to identify and remediate vulnerabilities that would result in audit findings, ensuring clean compliance assessments.
Measurable Outcomes
Focus on truly exploitable vulnerabilities
From point-in-time to continuous
Risk-based prioritisation
Continuous posture monitoring
