OnDefend Expands BlindSPOT to Deliver Continuous Threat Detection and Response Validation
Delivering security leaders the operational assurance and visibility they need between penetration tests. JACKSONVILLE, Fla., May 29, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--OnDefend, a leader in proactive cybersecurity control validation, has announced two new feature sets within BlindSPOT™, its breach and attack simulation (BAS) platform: Threat Detection Validation and Threat Response Validation. These capabilities allow organizations to continuously test whether their detection tools—like Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR), Extended Detection and Response (XDR), and Security Information and Event Management (SIEM)—and their internal Security Operations Center (SOC) team and Managed Detection and Response (MDR) providers are performing as expected in real-world scenarios. BlindSPOT simulations map to the MITRE ATT&CK framework and measure mean time to detect (MTTD), mean time to respond (MTTR), and vendor service-level agreement (SLA) adherence. The platform also includes real-time alert monitoring, escalation path validation, and immediate failure notifications—helping teams catch breakdowns before attackers do. "Security leaders told us they didn't just want to pass compliance—they wanted proof their investments were protecting them," said Chris Freedman, CEO and Co-Founder of OnDefend. "BlindSPOT now gives them continuous validation that detection tools and response teams are delivering as expected." These new features complement penetration testing, which remains essential for identifying perimeter vulnerabilities. While pentests reveal if attackers can get in, BlindSPOT validates what happens next—whether alerts trigger and teams respond. "Penetration testing is like checking your home window and door locks," said Freedman. "But it doesn't tell you if your alarms notify response teams. BlindSPOT continuously tests detection and response capabilities to prove your organization is protected. If your home provider did that daily, wouldn't you sleep better at night?" To reduce complexity, OnDefend also offers BlindSPOT as a fully managed service—delivering BAS-level outcomes without needing to purchase software, build red/purple teams, or manage ongoing simulation content. Whether self-managed as a SaaS platform or delivered as a service, BlindSPOT provides measurable assurance that detection and response investments are working as intended—and delivering meaningful return on investment. Learn more: About OnDefend OnDefend, established in 2016, stands at the forefront of preventative cybersecurity testing and advisory services. A trusted partner, OnDefend empowers organizations globally to combat real-world cyber threats. From ensuring compliance to building mature security programs, our mission is to ensure that the security investments are well-utilized, effective, and provide tangible results.

IWSR Forecasts $34bn Beverage Alcohol Growth in Key Markets by 2034
LONDON, May 29, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--According to new data from IWSR, the global leader in beverage alcohol data and insights, the beverage alcohol industry experienced a mixed 2024 with global beverage alcohol volume down 1% but value up 1%. In addition to today's 2024 annual data release, IWSR also announces the launch of two new products: the Global Forecast Suite and On-Trade Value data. The Global Forecast Suite offers volume and value forecasts with an expanded ten-year horizon for the top markets. Using forecasts from the new product, IWSR expects $34bn in beverage alcohol growth in the next decade across the industry's leading markets. IWSR's On-Trade Value data offers the first ever cross-market view of value from a price-to-consumer perspective in on-trade venues across twenty key markets. The new product provides users with a transparent view of this critical but notoriously opaque channel. In the 2024 data, India stood out as a key growth market, adding over 5% in total beverage alcohol (TBA) volume and 9% in value. Growth is visible across all categories within the market, but most notably in beer and whisky. TBA in Brazil grew just over 1% by volume in 2024 while value surged by 5%. Growing sectors included premium beer, RTDs and brandy. No-alcohol beverages continued to display strong growth in 2024. No-alcohol beer volume was up 9%, and IWSR now forecasts that it will surpass ale to become the second largest overall beer category by volume worldwide this year. Emily Neill, IWSR COO, says, "Beverage alcohol growth momentum has decisively shifted towards developing markets. Our new Global Forecast Suite really lays bare the extent of the coming change, as the combination of demographic changes, shifting economic growth patterns and the long-run moderation trend in developed markets take full effect." About IWSR: Founded over 50 years ago, IWSR is the global leader in data, analytics and insights for the beverage alcohol industry. We uniquely combine proprietary longitudinal market data, consumer insights and AI-enhanced data science, with valuable on-the-ground human intelligence in 160 markets worldwide, to decipher what is really happening in the global beverage alcohol market. Please note: value is in USD using variable exchange rate for actuals up to 2024, fixed rate for forecasts. View source version on Contacts Ned
