Cutting Through the Noise: Chariot’s Zero False Positive Guarantee

For years, cybersecurity teams have fought a persistent battle: overwhelming noise generated by vulnerability tools. It’s a familiar scenario – overtaxed security teams drowning in alerts, many leading to false positives or low-priority issues. Fatigued and lacking priorities, they risk missing critical vulnerabilities.

While scanners aren’t intentionally built to generate needless noise, it’s an inevitable byproduct. The scanners approach is to cast a wide net and always err on the side of caution, flagging potential issues based on predefined rules. This approach, combined with default configurations, a lack of environmental context, and a constantly evolving threat landscape, only exacerbates the noise.

Enter Chariot, Praetorian’s Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) platform and managed service. Chariot promises significant noise reduction, prioritized risk assessment, and zero false positives. For the next few moments, let’s take a look at the methodology behind these claims.

The CTEM Waterfall.

The Zero False Positive Guarantee

Chariot’s zero false positive guarantee is our commitment and confidence in providing actionable, verified intelligence that organizations can trust. But how does Chariot achieve this level of accuracy?

By adopting the people, process, and technology principles of Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM), Chariot takes a fundamentally different approach than traditional vulnerability tools. We combine advanced automation with human expertise to ensure every single alert is verified and represents a genuine, exploitable vulnerability before being sent to the client. This means that when Chariot signals a vulnerability, internal security teams can act with absolute confidence, knowing that their efforts are being directed towards addressing real, exploitable, material risks.

The Human Element: Chariot’s Secret Sauce

While we at Praetorian joke that Chariot is the most robust, user-friendly platform that clients will never need to open, it’s the human expertise behind the platform that truly sets it apart. Praetorian’s team of adversarial experts is vital to the triage and validation process.

Unlike most tools that simply prioritize identified vulnerabilities, Praetorian’s engineers go further. They conduct thorough investigations of each potential threat, attempting to exploit vulnerabilities to demonstrate real-world impact and provide concrete proof of risk. This hands-on approach ensures that when a vulnerability is reported to a client, it is accompanied by actionable intelligence and a clear understanding of potential consequences.

Cutting Through the Noise

By leveraging Praetorian’s managed service team to triage every finding, the overwhelming noise that plagues many security teams is eliminated. This approach enables security teams to concentrate on addressing critical issues, maximizing their security investment returns.

On average, Chariot clients experience a 94% reduction in noise compared to traditional vulnerability scanners. This decrease in volume doesn’t compromise the detection of critical vulnerabilities. Instead, it reflects a more accurate, context-aware risk assessment.

Chariot’s managed service model ensures that Praetorian’s experts are always available to provide guidance, context, and support. This extension of the security team allows organizations to leverage world-class expertise without building and maintaining such capabilities in-house.

A Partnership for Proactive Security

Ultimately, Chariot represents more than just a tool or service; it’s a partnership between Praetorian and our clients. By combining advanced technology with human expertise, Chariot enables organizations to take a proactive, adversary-focused approach to cybersecurity.

The zero false positive guarantee demonstrates Praetorian’s confidence in its approach and the value it provides to clients. In a world of constantly evolving cyber threats, having a partner that can provide clear, actionable intelligence is invaluable.
