Simulate real attackers. Discover real gaps.

Our Red Team simulates advanced persistent threats (APT) to test your detection and response capabilities—providing actionable insights for defence hardening.

What is ISO 27001 and Why

What is Red Team Assessment?

Red Team Assessment is a full scope, adversary simulation designed to mimic real-world cyberattacks on your organization’s people, processes, and technologies. Unlike traditional penetration testing, it assesses your organization’s detection and response capabilities in a stealthy, realistic scenario. The goal is to identify gaps before real attackers do ensuring your defenses work when they’re needed most.

What is Red Team Assessments?

Red Teaming is the act of testing the security of your frameworks by attempting to hack them.

The best Red Team Techniques are:

  1. Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) gathering
  2. Mapping publicly accessible assets and services (i.e. ADFS, OWA, VPN, Web Apps)
  3. Identifying leaked passwords of existing and former employees
  4. Examining existing DNS records and misconfigurations
  5. Fingerprinting external services and identifying vulnerable products

Red Teaming is a full-scope, multi-layered attack simulation intended to quantify how well an organization’s people and organizations, applications, and actual security controls can endure an assault from a genuine foe.

The Red Team Assessment Methodology is :

  1. Information Gathering
  2. Active Reconnaissance
  3. Attack Planning and Pretexting
  4. Exploitation
  5. Post Exploitation
  6. Reporting

A red team exercise will open your eyes to the following details in your organization :

  1. Learning how easy it is for attackers to enter your organization’s security systems
  2. Identification of methods that could be used to disrupt business
  3. Expose gaps in surveillance that can be used to evade detection
  4. Finding out how effective is your incident response plan

The three major Red Team phases used during the assessment to accurately emulate a realistic threat include ‘Get In’, ‘Stay In’, and ‘Act’.

A red teaming framework has the following components:

  • Defining the scope of a red teaming exercise and risk tolerance level of the organization
  • Gathering threat intelligence data
  • Conducting red team exercises
  • Analyzing results and preparing a remediation plan
  • Presentation before the senior management/board

Some of the well-known red teaming frameworks include:

  1. TIBER-EU (Threat Intelligence-Based Ethical Red Teaming Framework – European Union)
  2. UK’s CBEST
  3. Hongkong’s iCAST (Intelligence-led Cyber Attack Simulation Testing)
  4. Saudi Arabia’s FEER (Financial Entities Ethical Red Teaming)
  5. Singapore’s AASE (Adversarial Attack Simulation Exercises)
  6. NATO’s framework
  7. Mitre’s ATT&CK framework

A red team exercise will open your eyes to the following details in your organization :

  1. Learning how easy it is for attackers to enter your organization’s security systems
  2. Identification of methods that could be used to disrupt business
  3. Expose gaps in surveillance that can be used to evade detection
  4. Finding out how effective is your incident response plan
