Precise Insight and Visibility Of Tactics
Introducing PIVOT™: Advanced security testing from SE Labs
SE LABS redefines advanced cyber security testing with the launch of PIVOT™ (Precise Insight and Visibility of Tactics): a new standard for clear, unequivocal analysis of the effectiveness and efficacy of enterprise-grade cyber security products and services.
Independent testing, transparent results and insight
A new era in advanced endpoint testing
PIVOT is a new, ground-breaking detection and protection cyber security test covering incident response and forensic investigation capabilities.
PIVOT helps businesses identify the products best suited to their needs; gives vendors detailed insight into how their solutions perform against real-world attacks, and supplies major analyst firms with trusted, high-quality data to inform their intelligence reports.
A pilot of the programme is currently underway with vendors including Broadcom, Cisco, Sophos, and Trend Micro taking part.
A full public test will start in early autumn 2026.
