Multi-week adversary simulations

Can your team catch us?

Pen testing tells you what is broken. Red teaming tells you whether your team would actually catch someone operating inside your network. Our operators run multi-stage attacks over weeks, with the same techniques as the threat groups targeting your sector, to answer one question: can your security team catch us before we reach the crown jewels?

Full kill chain. MITRE ATT&CK TTPs. Custom threat profiles. 21 days on average.

Five ways we run it.

Every operation is built around a threat actor relevant to you. The format depends on what you need to learn.

  1. 01

    Adversary simulation

    We pick a threat actor relevant to you and replicate their actual playbook. Same tools, same infrastructure, same objectives, against your organisation.

  2. 02

    Assumed breach

    We start already inside your network and test whether your team can catch us moving laterally, escalating privileges, and exfiltrating data.

  3. 03

    Physical & social engineering

    Tailgating through the front door, impersonating a vendor, dropping USB sticks in the lobby. We test whether your physical controls hold up against someone determined to get in.

  4. 04

    Purple team exercises

    Your blue team works side by side with our red team. We attack, they detect, we tune the rules together. Real-time improvement of your visibility and response capability.

  5. 05

    Ransomware readiness

    We simulate a real ransomware operator's playbook step by step: phishing email, domain admin, encryption, and data exfiltration. You see exactly where the gaps are.

Run like a real operation.

  1. Threat intel & planning

    We pick the threat actor most relevant to your sector, study how they operate, and build an attack plan around it.

  2. Initial access & persistence

    We try to get in through phishing, social engineering, or whatever is exposed on the internet. Then we dig in and stay, just like a real attacker would.

  3. Lateral movement & escalation

    We move through your network, escalate privileges, and head for the objective. Every step tests whether your team notices and responds.

  4. Debrief & detection tuning

    Walk through everything we did, every alert that fired or did not, and a prioritised list of detection gaps.

Modelled on a real threat actor.

Every engagement starts by selecting the threat group most likely to target your sector. We study their TTPs and replicate their playbook.

72%detection gap

Cloud infrastructure red team exposes a 72% detection gap in a SaaS provider

A SaaS company wanted to know if their AWS setup was actually secure. We exploited misconfigured IAM roles, moved through Lambda functions, and reached production databases. Their SOC never saw us until the debrief.

Industrial group discovers a ransomware path from its IT network into the plant floor

We got domain admin through a supplier portal account, moved from the corporate network into the production network, and proved we could halt operations across three plants. That evidence got security funding approved at board level.
