Cutting Through the Noise: Security Insights by Stephen Gates

Horizon3.ai has been named a Customers’ Choice in the October 2025 Gartner® Peer Insights™ “Voice of the Customer”: Adversarial Exposure Validation report, reflecting strong peer satisfaction and real-world impact.

Threat Informed Perspectives give organizations a structured, attacker-aligned way to measure exposure, track real security improvement, and validate remediation over time using continuous, evidence-driven insights from NodeZero.

EDR tools offer visibility, but visibility isn’t protection. Learn why credential-driven attacks often bypass EDR and how NodeZero validates real-world detection, blocking, and effectiveness across your endpoints.

Horizon3.ai’s NodeZero® redefines Risk-Based Vulnerability Management by connecting exploitability, business context, and attacker behavior. With new capabilities for High-Value Targeting, Advanced Data Pilfering, Threat Actor Intelligence, and Vulnerability Risk Intelligence, NodeZero moves vulnerability management from noise to proof—helping security teams prioritize, fix, and verify what truly matters.

Cybersecurity awareness training builds knowledge—but not proof. This post shows how to evolve from education to validation by continuously testing your defenses with NodeZero®. Discover how real-world verification closes policy gaps, exposes hidden risks, and transforms one month of awareness into year-round assurance your security truly works.

When a $2B merger put a global chemical manufacturer’s security to the test, NodeZero® exposed critical identity risks and domain compromise paths in just 35 minutes. What began as a pilot evolved into a global Pentest Wednesday® program—turning vulnerability data into proof of resilience across 20 sites and thousands of endpoints.

Annual pentesting leaves blind spots. Learn why modern threats demand frequent or continuous pentesting to stay ahead of attackers.

Annual pentesting leaves blind spots. Learn why modern threats demand frequent or continuous pentesting to stay ahead of attackers.

A U.S. casino's first pentest uncovers 756 weaknesses & 143 attack paths, sparking a new, proof-driven approach to security.

The simple truth is that supply chain security depends on validation, not paperwork. Pentest Wednesday is about moving from forms and annual tests to continuous testing and measurable risk reduction, replacing paperwork with proof.
