Red Teaming Services
Red Team engagements are an advanced type of Penetration Testing (also known as PEN Testing) within cyber security that simulates a real-world attack to access sensitive data or systems.
While the aim of most Penetration Tests is to identify vulnerabilities within your environment, Red Team engagements are goal-oriented and aim to demonstrate the realistic threats and risks against your technology, people, and physical environment.
Our expert PEN testing team will use additional techniques such as social engineering, enhanced reconnaissance, and threat intelligence to achieve their goal – putting your cyber security to the test.
Our Red Teaming Methodology
The way we structure our Red Team engagements aligns closely with the steps taken by bad actors to target and compromise your systems. We replicate the approach of real-world adversaries to simulate and evaluate how your systems and processes respond to a cyber attack, in order to strengthen your cyber security.
We gather information about potential targets and attack vectors, identifying potential vulnerabilities and weaknesses in your systems.
Our team uses the data we have gathered to develop an ‘exploit’ that we can deliver to the target systems.
We deliver the ‘infected’ file to the target, remotely executing the ‘malicious’ software, and taking advantage of vulnerabilities to gain unauthorised access.
We will attempt to move from the compromised system to more high value systems, establish a backdoor connection, remotely control and manage the ‘malware’, and execute manual commands.
With control over your system, we can now work to achieve the agreed objectives, whether that is accessing restricted data, network disruptions, or further propagation within your network.
We will achieve persistent network access and conduct the simulated extraction of staged data.
Red Teaming vs Penetration Testing
| Red Teaming |
|---|
| We test systems simultaniously |
| We work to fluid, adaptable targets |
| Longer testing schedule |
| We don't tell your people what we're doing |
| Our testers will be creative and use any means necessary |
| Penetration Testing |
|---|
| We test systems independently |
| We define our targets before we start |
| Short term tests |
| Your people know what we're testing and when |
| Our testers use a suite of commercially available testing tools |
