The focus
The most realistic measure of your defenses
A Red Team is not an extended penetration test. It is the sustained simulation of a real adversary —using the tactics, techniques and procedures (TTPs) that current threat groups use— whose goal is to assess whether the organization can detect, contain and respond to an attack before it causes damage.
Unlike traditional penetration testing, which provides a snapshot of the state of systems at a given moment, a Red Team makes it possible to observe how people, processes and technology respond under real pressure.
01Scope and objectives definition
Agreement on the exercise objectives, systems in scope, rules of engagement and success criteria.
02Reconnaissance and intelligence
OSINT and passive reconnaissance of the target organization. Identification of potential entry vectors.
03Initial access
Exploitation of the identified vectors to gain an initial foothold in the target environment.
04Lateral movement and persistence
Expansion within the environment, privilege escalation and establishment of persistence —while assessing whether the Blue Team detects the activity.
05Achievement of objectives and report
Reaching the defined objectives, documentation of the path followed and debriefing with both teams.
