However, Picus Security has made major progress when it comes to adding even more value to continuous threat simulation for security professionals. One of the most notable advancements that Picus made is that of deeper integration with the help of the use of generative AI, including solutions such as Picus AI Chaser, which is an ability to produce mitigation scripts and describe threat behavior in plain English almost immediately. In addition to this, the expansion into Cloud Strike capabilities means that one can easily perform attack simulation on multi-cloud infrastructures (such as AWS and Azure), as well as on-premise networks. With the addition of their threat library at breakneck speed and immediate simulations of ransomware and zero-day threats, they have become way more than a validation solution.

Even though the platform is highly powerful at this point, it still has much room for development concerning friction within operations and maturity of its ecosystem. As Picus introduces new capabilities such as cloud security posture validation and identity threat detection, its UI can be confusing at times, which makes the setup and dashboard navigation not very intuitive for small teams. Also, while Picus has expanded its list of native integrations, deep bi-directional integration with niche SIEM/SOAR products and EDR solutions would help to avoid switching between dashboards. Lastly, lowering the execution time for full-fledged simulation playbooks and introducing more detailed report templates would allow for better translation of technical risks to executives.
