Everything You Need To Know About The 2021 MITRE Engenuity ATT&CK Evaluations

It’s another year and another round of vendors claiming “We won this year’s evaluations!” much to the MITRE ATT&CK team’s chagrin.

What’s more, if you’re willing to dive into a plethora of JSON files, there’s a treasure trove of data awaiting you. Security pros can use this research to understand the 2021 evaluations, EDR market trends, what these security tools are capable of, and use the MITRE Evaluations Results Tool to parse the results themselves.
