ThreatSpike Overview

What is ThreatSpike?

ThreatSpike Red is the first managed service for offensive security which provides unlimited testing at an affordable, fixed price. Instead of one off, point in time tests, ThreatSpike Red provides continuous testing, all year round carried out our expert team using the latest offensive security tooling. ThreatSpike will allow you to identify vulnerabilities that could be exploited by a real-life threat actor to gain unauthorised access to systems that could ultimately result in a denial of service, data breach and/or financial loss. Through controlled testing of the environment, ThreatSpike will assist you in improving the overall security posture of the operating environment, in turn reducing the likelihood of a breach. This testing will also support security certifications including SOC 2, ISO 27001 and Cyber Essentials Plus.

What do you like best about ThreatSpike?

All asects of their team! Senior managers, support team, consultants, etc are always available and are able to convey information in an understandable way to both my staff and also my customers if required. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ThreatSpike?

Their reporting is a little antiquated, meaning that their documents look somewhat dated compared to other solutions that we've used. That said, we don't need to ignore the first 6 pages of their reports because it's nothing but sales literature (which my team agree we value a great deal more)! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ThreatSpike:

When you talk to them, ask about all their services! There's never a hard sale and therefore you might miss out on some cost effective products or service offerings that you didn't know were available to you. For example we have primarily used ThreatSpike's IDS solution across our estate, but as soon as we learned about ThreatSpike RED we jumped at the service because it was perfect for what we previously have outsourced elsewhere. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ThreatSpike solving and how is that benefiting you?

They have a 24/7 managed SOC which ensures maximum responsiveness to any events that may occur. As an MSP this is invaluable and allows us to practively be looking for threats, misconfigurations and address security bulletins. We can't contol all aspects of our end-user's behaviour, so this solution gives us a much needed capability in covering as many attack vectors as possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ThreatSpike?

Arranging a pen test is so simple and they take time to understand what is really important to the organisation. The reports are clear and easy to understand at all levels including recommendations. The service is such good value for money and pays for itself after a small number of uses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ThreatSpike?

The portal could be more user friendly for those less technical, or allow simple customisable exports that can be shared. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ThreatSpike solving and how is that benefiting you?

ThreatSpike RED is ensuring that we always know our weaknesses and spend does not get in the way of doing the right thing; with year round option of pen testing of our infrastructure, systems and applications we are not waiting for an arbitrary yearly checkpoint to highlight issues. ThreatSpike are an extension of our team allowing focus on delivery and growth activities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ThreatSpike?

Understand the business requirements, Ease of Integration, Service Delivery and Excellent Customer Support Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ThreatSpike?

A customized reporting dashboard would help Non-Tech Leaders to understand the tech vulnerability much easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ThreatSpike:

A must use service, which can easily be customized and integrated with your organization Vulnerability Management - Penetration Testing Program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ThreatSpike solving and how is that benefiting you?

Though Digital world is bringing convenience, Cyber risk threat landscape is also growing. It's important to come out of the one time penetration testing requirements to only meet legal, regulatory & audit requirements and shift towards integrating the "Pentest as a service" in your technology environment.

This is the biggest problem which ThreatSpike Red team has addressed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ThreatSpike?

Fixed price for unlimited penetation tests. Helpful when you have multiple applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ThreatSpike?

Some pen test vendors have a web dashboard to manage customer engagements. It was not a big deal for us as I like the direct interations and meetings especially when it comes to cyber security. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ThreatSpike solving and how is that benefiting you?

We recently engaged ThreatSpike for penetration testing and were thoroughly impressed. Their clear communication, expert testing, and comprehensive reporting set them apart. They creatively identified vulnerabilities, offering tailored remedies and ongoing support. For cybersecurity that's more than a service, ThreatSpike is your dedicated partner. Highly recommended.

What do you like best about ThreatSpike?

The truth is that communication with them has been fast, and therefore efficient. It was exactly what we needed at the moment. We had some needs, they told us they had the solutions, and they did. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ThreatSpike?

The reports have become somewhat outdated in their format for the way the industry has evolved. Nothing important in any case. By adding a couple of details and with a facelift in the graphic design, everything would be up to date. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ThreatSpike solving and how is that benefiting you?

In our case, pentesting of our platform Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ThreatSpike?

ThreatSpike Red's all-encompassing approach leaves no stone unturned. It is by far the best value for money product in my toolkit but also the one that brings me the most assurance. I know that if the team at ThreatSpike have gone over my estate, there is virtually nothing they haven't seen. I trust in the brand and the people in their expertise and ability to dissect and triage the mountain of data that comes back from an exercise like this. I've never been let down and at best, we have managed to impress our board and secure confidence that we are using a world-class product. I've used not only the ThreatSpike Wire product but also the full RedTeam exercise including social engineering which was an eye opener to the businesses i've deployed this to in the past. Topping off the laurels of the product is the superb team that I get to interact with and will take with me wherever I go. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ThreatSpike?

They are really good at digging and digging and being relentless in their pursuit of vulnerabilities so at the end of the day, I usually still have some explaining to do. :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ThreatSpike:

Red is an easy sell. It will give you previously unheard of and unknown areas to consider, cement your committment to maturing your CyberSecurity posture and partner you with an organisation that is skillful and actually cares about its customers all for an extremely reasonable cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ThreatSpike solving and how is that benefiting you?

ThreatSpike Red allows us to gain visibility into the logical and physical weaknesses of any business I've ever deployed them on. They have no doubt uncovered weaknesses that were not previously known even with a robust ISO27001, CyberEssentials Plus framework and dedicated GRC and IT Security teams.

What do you like best about ThreatSpike?

It's unbelieveable value for money, given the comprehensive nature of the tests that they conduct. What comes across from all my dealings with them is their command of what was being asked for, their competance and subject knowledge. ThreatSpike needed almost zero input from us before starting the tests, which means that they approach this in a realistic way. The report at the end of the process is comprehensive enough for a security team to take away and work from, but digestible enough for an uninitiated user to understand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ThreatSpike?

Nothing really. At the end of the process I had a report which I could base my a very approach around and very clear items for remediation. It's hard to point fingers when you're getting what you need at a fair price. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ThreatSpike solving and how is that benefiting you?

ThreatSpike gives us a single place from which to manage our security posture, allowing us to approach security in a policy and principles led way. We can now deploy customised and signed-off security frameworks from one place and track compliance against it. We are now able to operate consistently and predictably, and we were unable to do that at scale before investing. We know this because of ThreatSpike Red. Using this service allows us to regularly test and monitor our approaches or deployed settings. It exposes unknown or potential risks in a managed way which allows us to plan mitigations before they can potentially impact any critical functions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ThreatSpike?

• ThreatSpike needed no prior input from us about our systems so they acted like real cyber attackers equivalent to super competent, organised crime level hackers which gave a realistic outcome to the exercise

• In the resulting report, the explanation about the steps taken in the exercise, the colour coded grid view of issues found including for each item the likelihood, impact & risk level (low, med, high, critical) and the detailed explanation of each issue along with the appropriate technical detail gave a clear account of what we had to address and in what order of importance

• ThreatSpike offered up help and resolutions to each issue which made the task of us remediating them much easier and ‘right first time’

• Although deeply technical by their nature, ThreatSpike were able to create a management summary using ‘words of English’ making complex issues understandable to the non technical. As a result, my job as the IT Director of explaining the current status and risks to the board and gaining their support for visibility, priority and funds to improve our security posture was made far easier Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ThreatSpike?

Before, during and after the exercise I found ThreatSpike to be super helpful and the resulting report gave me exactly what I needed so there was nothing to dislike other than some of the issues they found which have now been fixed ! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ThreatSpike:

Be comfortable letting ThreatSpike do their thing and finding as many holes in your security landscape as they can. Then make sure you fix them with the help, advice and support of ThreatSpike should you need it. It's worth every penny of the cost to repeat the exercise at least once every year as one way or another the cost of a breach will almost definitely be significantly higher Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ThreatSpike solving and how is that benefiting you?

The purpose of this Red Team exercise was for ThreatSpike to perform a review of our ability to detect and withstand a targeted cyber attack. This included them identifying potential weaknesses and vulnerabilities in the security of our IT systems as well as testing employee resistance to social engineering attacks and malicious email threats. In order to simulate a real attack as closely as possible, it was important that ThreatSpike remain undetected by our colleagues or IT team during the exercise and they were very successful in this respect.

Clearly any attack but particularly any resulting in loss of data and or loss of use of our systems would be hugely detrimental to our reputation and our ability to provide continuity of service to our customers so the benefit to us of this exercise was to understand any weaknesses we may have in our IT landscape and address them as a priority.
