FireEye acquired security instrumentation company Verodin for $250 million, combining Verodin's automated attack simulation platform with FireEye's leading threat intelligence and breach investigation capabilities. The deal enables continuous, automated red-team testing that measures the real effectiveness of an organization's security controls, helping security teams identify gaps and validate existing investments.

When FireEye reported its earnings last month, the outlook was a little light, so the security vendor decided to be proactive and make a big purchase.

Virginia-based Verodin will help measure and test security environments against known and newly-discovered threats to identify risks in security controls before a breach occurs.
