Red Team Security Services

Red Team Security Services Key Features

Our red teaming process is built from the ground up to give you adaptability, clarity and support, allowing you to act with confidence.

• Offensive Security Experts – Our seasoned team of credentialed experts use their knowledge of data security to comprehensively test your organization's cyber security controls and incident response procedures against the highest technical, legal and regulatory standards.
• Intelligence-led Testing – Red team operations use evasion, deception and stealth techniques, similar to those used by sophisticated threat actors, to simulate an attack and provide actionable security outcomes for your business.
• Blended Attack Methods – A wide range of attack techniques are used, which might include phishing, social engineering, exploit of vulnerable services, proprietary adversarial tools and techniques and/or physical access methods.
• In-Depth Reporting – A detailed post-engagement report provides key stakeholders with a complete overview of the assessment and actionable insights to support the remediation of any identified risks.

• Tailored Terms of Engagement – We adapt to your business needs and your level of security maturity. From OSINT (open-source intelligence) gathering and network reconnaissance to custom social engineering and phishing campaigns, we test the effectiveness of your controls by simulating both internal and external threat actors across different attack domains.
• Comprehensive, Actionable Findings – Our adversarial simulation follows MITRE’s Adversarial Tactics, Techniques and Common Knowledge (ATT&CK) framework. Covering the entire attack chain, our goal is to provide a measurable effectiveness rating across the attack and defense surfaces to better inform strategic decision-making.
• Ongoing Collaborative Support – We partner with you to develop a strategy that aligns with natural business cycles. The program can include red team, social engineering, penetration testing and purple team. We also provide support for strategic and tactical remediation and mitigation, so you can prevent and respond to real-world attacks, reducing risk in the long term.

Example Red Team Objectives

• Gaining access to a segmented environment holding sensitive data
• Taking control of an IoT device or a specialized piece of equipment
• Compromising a company director’s account credentials Obtaining privileges to allow ransomware to be mass deployed across the environment
• Obtaining access to OT / ICS zone
• Obtaining physical access to a server room or sensitive location
• Successfully phishing or social engineering a user or group
• Bypassing specific security controls, such as endpoint detection and response (EDR), data loss prevention, DLP, email security controls or anti-bot controls

Red Team Testing Methodology 

Our red team operations experts embrace a systematic approach when testing the capacity of your organization’s threat detection and response capabilities. An example of a common red team engagement might include the following stages:

• Reconnaissance– The success of any red team test hinges on the quality of intelligence. Our white hat hackers utilize a range of OSINT tools, techniques and resources to gather details about networks, employees and in-use security systems that could be used to successfully compromise the target.
• Staging– Once vulnerable access points have been identified and our experts develop a plan of attack, the “staging” phase begins. Staging involves setting up and concealing the groundwork and resources needed to launch attacks, like fixing servers to perform ”command and control” (C2) operations and social engineering activities. 

• Initial Access– The initial access phase of a red team operation marks the point at which the attackers establish a foothold in the target environment. In pursuing their objective, our ethical hackers may attempt to exploit discovered vulnerabilities, use brute force to crack weak employee passwords and create fake email communications to launch phishing attacks and drop malicious payloads.
• Internal Compromise– Once a foothold is established on the target network, the red team turns its focus to executing the objectives of the operation. Objectives during this phase might include lateral movement across the network, privilege escalation and data extraction. 
• Reporting and Analysis– Now that the red team operation has concluded, a comprehensive evaluation is prepared to inform technical and non-technical stakeholders in assessing the results of the exercise. A summary may include an overview of the effectiveness of the security program as it currently stands, attack vectors used and recommendations about how to remediate and mitigate risks.
