Ransomware
Simulation
Ransomware operators follow a predictable playbook. The organisations that survive are the ones who have tested it before the real attack. We simulate the full ransomware attack chain — safely — so you know exactly where you stand.
Their Playbook. Our Control.
Initial Access Simulation
We simulate the initial access techniques ransomware operators use — phishing with credential harvesting, exploitation of internet-facing services, and abuse of RDP and VPN exposure. The starting point is agreed with your team.
Propagation & Pre-Ransomware Activity
We replicate the activities that occur in the days before encryption: credential theft, lateral movement, Active Directory enumeration, backup deletion attempts, and data staging for double-extortion simulation.
Encryption-Phase Simulation
We simulate the encryption phase using safe tooling that mimics ransomware behaviour without destructive impact — writing test files to measure encryption speed and scope, and validating whether endpoint controls interrupt the process.
Recovery Readiness Assessment
We assess your backup infrastructure, recovery time objectives, and incident response plan against the simulated attack. The final report quantifies your actual downtime risk and identifies the gaps that would extend recovery.
End-to-End. Non-Destructive.
Every simulation is non-destructive. We test the full attack chain using safe tooling designed to mimic real ransomware behaviour without encrypting production data.
