With BigID AgentIQ, you choose who is compromised and how they attack, then see the records, files, and notification obligations a data breach would reach, and the fewest changes that contain it. Click through a ransomware simulation, from the top-ranked service account to a prevention plan.
A short session with our team runs a data breach simulation against your environment.
The simulation starts from what BigID already knows about your environment. AgentIQ uses that map, with the user's own permissions, to run the analysis as a program, and you choose between exfiltration, ransomware, and destruction.
Every data breach simulation runs on what BigID has discovered in your environment. In this example that is 831K sensitive findings across 82 data sources, 17,000 open-access objects, 261 AI vectors holding confidential data, and 891 open DSPM cases.
Open this screen in the tourAgentIQ pairs an AI agent with BigID findings through the BigID MCP server. The agent calls BigID with the user's own permissions, never more than that role allows. Every action is logged to a person, and changes need human approval.
Open this screen in the tourEach attack type keeps only the access it can use. The attack then moves through direct grants, inherited folder permissions, group membership, sharing links and external users, and credentials found in data. AI agents and copilots are simulated the same way: an agent reaches everything the identity it runs as can reach.
Open this screen in the tourBigID ranks identities by likelihood and records at risk, runs the attack for the top one, follows the credential escalation, and reports the records, files, notification obligations, and risky combinations that a data breach would reach.
BigID ranks identities by likelihood of compromise multiplied by the records at risk. The top-ranked identity is a service account that can encrypt 11,042 records and escalates through stored keys. Offboarded and external identities rank in the same list.
Open this screen in the tourSelecting the identity loads its reach: 13 object sets, 11,042 sensitive records, and 41 high-sensitivity files. BigID also flags why it ranks first: no MFA, long-lived keys, and keys that may sit in data others can read.
Open this screen in the tourIf the service account is compromised, the attacker takes over a second service account using keys stored in hodbucket/. The map then shows every object set reached, how BigID classifies it, and the obligations it triggers, ending at the outside world, where 5 object sets are already reachable.
Open this screen in the tourHere the blast radius is 13 object sets across 52 files, 11,042 sensitive records, 41 high-sensitivity files, and 5 object sets already reachable outside. Enter a cost per record to estimate breach cost.
Open this screen in the tourBigID maps the exposed categories to seven obligations: GDPR with 72 hours to notify the supervisory authority, US state breach notification laws, CCPA/CPRA, HIPAA, PCI DSS, GLBA / FTC Safeguards, and credential compromise response.
Open this screen in the tourThe Exposure tab lists the combinations that make this breach worse. The top finding is the escalation: stored credentials in hodbucket/ are readable by the compromised identity. BigID also states what it did not simulate: three cloud project roles whose members it cannot list.
Open this screen in the tourThe Remediation tab and the prevention plan turn the findings into tasks, assigned to people, teams, or AI agents. AgentIQ receives the whole plan and runs it only after you approve.
The Remediation tab ranks fixes by reduction. Task 1, remove and rotate the credentials stored in hodbucket/, cuts 100% of exposure for this identity and protects 11,042 records. Switch it on and the records at risk drop from 11,042 to 0.
Open this screen in the tourrfraser.offboarded ranks High likelihood: offboarded, still has access, and an external identity, with 6 records at stake. The suggested fix is to disable the account and remove all its grants, which cuts 100% of exposure for that identity.
Open this screen in the tourBigID simulates every identity in scope, 22 scenarios across exfiltration and ransomware, and finds 88,598 record exposures. 14 tasks, 8 of them priority 1, bring that down to 1,918.
Open this screen in the tourEvery task carries a priority, an owner, and a due date. Tasks can go to a data owner, the IAM team, the cloud platform team, or an AI agent working through the BigID MCP. Here the two external-user revocations go to an AI agent.
Open this screen in the tourSend to AgentIQ builds one prompt for the whole plan: execute the external access revocations in BigID, create a ticket for every other task with its assignee and due date, then re-run the simulation and report the change in record exposures. The badge says it: runs only after approval.
Open this screen in the tourBigID AgentIQ reads what BigID has already discovered in your environment: the sensitive data, who and what can reach it, and where AI touches it. It calls BigID through the MCP server with the user's own permissions and walks the attack paths for every identity, then scores impact by sensitivity and regulation.
You choose the identity and the attack type, and BigID shows the records, files, and object sets that identity could reach. Exfiltration counts any path with READ, ransomware counts only WRITE or DELETE paths, and destruction counts only DELETE paths. People, service accounts, external users, offboarded users, and AI agents are all simulated, because an agent reaches everything the identity it runs as can reach.
BigID ranks identities by likelihood of compromise multiplied by the records at risk. In the tour, the top-ranked identity is a service account that can encrypt 11,042 records and escalates through stored keys. Offboarded and external identities appear in the same ranked list.
For the selected identity, BigID reports the object sets reached, the sensitive records and high-sensitivity files, and how many object sets are already reachable outside the company. You can enter a cost per record to estimate breach cost, and the Exposure tab lists the risky combinations inside the blast radius.
BigID maps the exposed data categories to the obligations they trigger: GDPR, US state breach notification laws, CCPA/CPRA, the HIPAA Breach Notification Rule, PCI DSS, the GLBA / FTC Safeguards Rule, and credential compromise response, each with its notification window where one applies.
BigID simulates every identity in scope and ranks the fewest changes that remove the most exposure. In the tour environment, 22 scenarios find 88,598 record exposures, and 14 remediation tasks bring that down to 1,918, a 98% reduction. Each task has a priority, an owner, and a due date.
No. Send to AgentIQ builds a prompt that asks you to approve each change before it runs, and the dialog is marked as running only after approval. AgentIQ works within the permissions of the user, and every action is logged to a person.
Yes. Request a demo with the form on this page, and the BigID team will run a data breach simulation on your environment.
