DETECTION COVERAGE VALIDATION
Prove whether your SIEM, EDR, WAF, identity, and cloud detections actually fire .
Hayrok executes governed validation scenarios, observes control and telemetry responses, and shows what was detected, what was missed, and where coverage needs improvement — with latency.

THE CHALLENGE
Having detection rules does not prove that attacks will be detected.
Rules can be misconfigured, telemetry can be missing, pipelines can break, and environmental changes can create silent blind spots. Coverage maps show intended visibility. Hayrok validates actual visibility.
Security teams still need to know:
- ?Does the intended rule actually fire?
- ?Which techniques never produce useful alerts?
- ?What is our end-to-end detection latency?
- ?Are telemetry sources complete and on time?
- ?Which controls confirm — and which are silent?
- ?Where should detection engineering invest next?
Hayrok replaces intended coverage with validated coverage.

VALIDATION COVERAGE
Validate the conditions that create real detection coverage risk.
Eight validation capabilities. Every one produces evidence, control response, and reachable impact.
01
Expected alerts
Confirm whether validation scenarios generate the intended security alerts.
SIEM
02
Missed detections
Identify attacker behaviors that do not produce useful detections.
Gaps
03
Alert latency
Measure the time between validation activity and detection generation.
Latency
04
Telemetry gaps
Identify missing, delayed, incomplete, or incorrectly routed data.
Pipeline
05
Control responses
Correlate WAF, EDR, IAM, cloud, and network control behavior with detection results.
Correlation
06
SIEM rules
Validate whether correlation and analytic rules operate as intended.
SIEM
07
EDR visibility
Assess whether endpoint behaviors are observed and alerted on.
EDR
08
WAF and edge events
Confirm whether web and API activity produces relevant events.

EVIDENCE AND PROOF
Every result is supported by validation evidence.
Not a screenshot. A machine-verifiable evidence pack per finding.
E-01
Expected detection evidence
Rule ID, alert record, and timestamp per validated behavior.
E-02
Missed detection records
What behavior fired without a matching alert — and why.
E-03
Alert timestamps and latency
End-to-end latency from behavior to alert.
E-04
Telemetry source evidence
Which sources contributed, which were missing, which were late.
E-05
SIEM event correlation
How individual events composed (or failed to) into a detection.
E-06
ATT&CK coverage evidence
Validated coverage aligned to tactic and technique.
SCENARIO EXAMPLES
Run scenarios aligned with realistic attacker behavior.
Recommended by objective, asset scope, telemetry, and safety requirements.
HOW IT WORKS
From objective to verified remediation.
Five steps. Every one governed, observable, and evidenced.
01
Select the objective
Choose the outcome and define assets, environments, and business services in scope.
02
Review scenarios
Hayrok maps the objective to relevant scenario packs, telemetry, and safety controls.
03
Run governed validation
Genesis coordinates recon, planning, approvals, execution, and evidence collection.
04
Review findings
See confirmed risk, control responses, detection responses, and remediation guidance.
05
Revalidate remediation
Rerun the relevant scenarios and confirm whether the issue is resolved.
BUSINESS VALUE
Turn validation into measurable security improvement.
01
Confidence in detection readiness
Move from 'we have a rule' to 'we produced the alert'.
02
Identify blind spots early
Find gaps before an incident does.
03
Prioritize detection engineering
Invest where impact is provable and latency is worst.
04
Prove program improvement
Coverage measured by evidence, not intent.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is Detection Coverage Validation?+
Detection Coverage Validation is Hayrok's continuous, governed process for proving — with evidence — which detection coverage risks are actually exploitable, and which controls, detections, and paths respond as intended.
How is it different from scanning or assessment?+
Scanners describe what might be wrong. Assessments describe what should be true. Hayrok executes governed validation scenarios and produces evidence-backed findings — with control response, detection response, reachability, and business impact.
What does Hayrok validate?+
Assets, exposure, identities, controls, telemetry, detections, and end-to-end attack paths — from external entry point to critical business asset — under policy and safety gates.
What evidence does Hayrok produce?+
Request and response artifacts, control responses, detection events, telemetry attribution, reachability paths, and business-impact mapping — all recorded in Evidence Fabric and tied to the run.
Is validation safe for production environments?+
Yes. Every scenario runs under Genesis with policy gates: authorized scope, safe-mode defaults, maintenance windows, blast-radius constraints, human approvals for exploit steps, and interruption controls.
Does Hayrok replace existing security tools?+
No. Hayrok validates them. It correlates scanner findings, control policies, and detection intent against reality — reducing noise and surfacing actual exploitable risk.
How often should validation be performed?+
Continuously for high-priority objectives. On-demand after significant environment changes. On schedule for board and audit assurance. Genesis runs and revalidates on any cadence.
Can teams revalidate completed remediation?+
Yes. Rerun the original scenario and Hayrok classifies the outcome as resolved, partially resolved, regressed, or still exploitable — with the same evidence contract as the initial finding.
