MITRE Caldera is a scalable, automated adversary emulation, open-source cybersecurity platform developed by MITRE. It empowers cyber practitioners to save time, money, and energy through automated security assessments. Caldera not only tests and evaluates detection/analytic and response platforms, but it also provides the capability for your red team to perform manual assessments with computer assistance. This is achieved by augmenting existing offensive toolsets. The framework can be extended to integrate with any custom tools you may have. The development team behind the platform is a group of red teamers, software developers, exploit writers, cyber threat analysts, AI researchers, cybersecurity engineers, and computer scientists. They all pursue the common goal of building a premier adversary emulation platform for our security defenders around the world.
