Red Team Assessment
Simulate advanced adversaries to test your organization's detection and response capabilities. Our red team assessments go beyond traditional penetration testing to provide a realistic evaluation of your security posture.
What is Red Teaming?
Red team assessments are adversarial simulations designed to test your organization's detection and response capabilities against sophisticated attacks. Unlike traditional penetration testing, red team operations focus on achieving specific objectives while remaining undetected, mimicking the behavior of advanced persistent threats (APTs).
Our red team uses the same tools, techniques, and procedures as real-world threat actors to test your defenses across people, processes, and technology. This provides invaluable insights into how well your security program would perform during an actual breach.
Red Team Capabilities
Advanced Threat Simulation
Our red team mimics sophisticated threat actors using advanced tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) based on real-world attack patterns.
Includes:
- APT simulation
- Multi-stage attacks
- Custom exploit development
- Zero-day simulation
Social Engineering
Test your human defenses through phishing campaigns, pretexting, and physical social engineering tactics.
Includes:
- Spear phishing
- Vishing attacks
- USB drop attacks
- Tailgating attempts
Physical Security
Assess physical security controls including access control systems, surveillance, and security awareness.
Includes:
- Badge cloning
- Lock picking
- Security camera evasion
- Unauthorized access testing
Detection & Response Testing
Evaluate your security monitoring and incident response capabilities against sophisticated attacks.
Includes:
- SIEM evasion
- EDR bypass
- Alert fatigue testing
- Response time assessment
Full Attack Lifecycle
Our red team exercises follow the complete attack chain, from initial compromise to objective achievement, based on the MITRE ATT&CK framework.
Initial Access
Gain initial foothold through various attack vectors
Execution
Run malicious code and establish control
Persistence
Maintain access across system restarts
Privilege Escalation
Obtain higher-level permissions
Defense Evasion
Avoid detection by security controls
Credential Access
Steal account credentials
Lateral Movement
Move through the network to reach objectives
Exfiltration
Extract data from the environment
Assessment Objectives
Test Detection Capabilities
Evaluate how well your security monitoring tools and SOC team detect sophisticated attacks.
Assess Response Effectiveness
Measure the speed and effectiveness of your incident response procedures under realistic attack scenarios.
Identify Control Gaps
Uncover weaknesses in security controls that might be exploited by advanced threat actors.
Validate Security Investments
Demonstrate the effectiveness of your security technology stack and identify areas for improvement.
What You'll Receive
Important Considerations
Red team assessments are intensive operations that require careful planning and coordination. We recommend having a mature security program in place, including:
- Active security monitoring (SIEM/SOC)
- Incident response procedures and team
- Endpoint detection and response (EDR) deployed
- Executive buy-in and defined scope of engagement
