Red Teaming
Advanced Organizational Resilience Testing Against Cyberattacks
Is your organization prepared for a real cyberattack? Standard security tests may not detect all the weaknesses that advanced cybercriminals exploit. Red Teaming is a comprehensive simulation of a real-life attack, in which cybersecurity specialists act like real hackers—bypassing defenses, gaining access to critical systems, and testing how effectively your organization responds to threats.
What are the benefits of Red Teaming?
Identification of real security gaps
– we assess not only IT systems, but also security procedures and the human factor.
Evaluation of detection and response capabilities
– we test the effectiveness of monitoring systems and SOC teams.
Simulation of an APT (Advanced Persistent Threat)
– we use techniques employed by hacking groups to see how far we can go.
Detailed reporting and improvement recommendations
– we provide actionable insights to strengthen your cyber resilience.
What is Red Teaming?
Red Teaming is an advanced form of resilience testing that simulates cyberattacks to verify the effectiveness of security measures and the response capabilities of internal teams.
During Red Teaming engagements, we cover the following areas:
- Attacks on IT infrastructure – penetration testing of systems, networks, and servers, exploiting misconfigurations, and privilege escalation.
- Social engineering attacks – employee manipulation attempts, including phishing, smishing, vishing, and physical entry into premises.
- Attacks on Active Directory – testing authentication system vulnerabilities and compromising privileged accounts.
- Network traffic interception and analysis – identifying opportunities to intercept data and infiltrate the organization.
- Analysis of security procedures and incident response – evaluating how quickly and effectively threats are detected and mitigated.
Red Teaming helps organizations view their security posture from an attacker’s perspective and eliminate real threats effectively.
Tools and techniques we use
During Red Teaming engagements, we apply methods used by real-world cybercriminals and leverage top-tier tools to test organizational resilience:
- Cobalt Strike & Metasploit – simulating advanced APT attacks, privilege escalation, and system infiltration.
- Mimikatz & BloodHound – attacking Active Directory, account takeover, and attack path mapping.
- Burp Suite & Evilginx – web application vulnerability and phishing tests.
- Gophish & SET (Social Engineering Toolkit) – social engineering, phishing, and vishing simulations.
- Wireshark & Responder – network traffic interception and protocol exploitation.
All Red Teaming services are aligned with MITRE ATT&CK, NIST 800-115, and ISO 27001 security standards.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is Red Teaming different from penetration testing?
Penetration tests focus on identifying technical vulnerabilities, whereas Red Teaming is a full-scale attack simulation covering both technical and social engineering aspects.
Can Red Teaming affect production systems?
Tests are conducted in a controlled manner and follow pre-approved rules of engagement to avoid disruption of business operations.
How long does a Red Teaming engagement take?
Duration depends on the scope—typically ranging from a few weeks to several months to ensure realistic simulation.
Which organizations should consider Red Teaming?
Red Teaming is especially recommended for large enterprises, financial institutions, industrial sectors, and organizations managing critical data and systems.
