Had a great time on the Offensive Security panel @HackRedCon today. We had a lot of interesting questions from the audience. The most interesting one, though, was: "Do we expect to see auditors for things like SOC 2 start accepting AI-executed security assessments in the near future?"
The panel was evenly split. What are your thoughts on it?
New to offensive security and not sure where to start? Or part of the blue team looking to get a broad overview of C2 infrastructure?

According to the SBA 60% of small businesses close within 6 months of a cyber breach, yet enterprise security testing often leaves organizations priced out.
That Gap shouldn't exist so we built SIMAPTIC! A fully automated internal network testing tool built on Empire.
→ Powered by Empire, trusted by Fortune 500s & gov agencies
→ Reports mapped to MITRE ATT&CK & NIST 800-53
→ On-demand. A fraction of the cost.
Every organization deserves to know where they stand.

Empire 6.4 is now public! Here are just a few updates:

Cyber on the rise: In 2025, Taiwan experienced an average of 2.6 million daily cyberattacks on critical infrastructure, from hospitals to energy systems, up from the previous year. Many of these incidents were tied to broader military and political pressure.
It’s a massive reminder that cyber threats aren’t abstract. They’re persistent, strategic, and evolving. Staying proactive about defense and awareness isn’t optional anymore.
New year, new site, new tool!
We’ve refreshed the BC Security website and introduced SIMAPTIC, our continuous threat-exposure and validation platform that simulates multi-stage attacks and provides teams with real signals they can act on.

Check it out and let’s make 2026 the year we outpace the adversary.
