Red Team

Objectives

Through controlled simulations carried out by our cybersecurity analysts, we assess both the security posture of your digital assets and your organisation’s ability to detect, contain and recover from a potential attack. Our objectives are to:

More information
Evaluate the effectiveness of security controls in realistic scenarios.
Identify exploitable weaknesses and high-impact attack paths (with evidence — not assumptions).
Improve incident readiness and response by validating processes and coordination.
Strengthen your security culture.
Deliver clear, prioritised recommendations: what to address first, what comes next, and why.

Services

Our services are designed to simulate sophisticated, realistic attacks with controlled execution and practical outcomes. The focus is on reconnaissance, detection and response — turning each engagement into actionable learning that drives real, measurable improvements.

Penetration Testing (Black / Grey Box).

We validate risk with evidence — not assumptions.

We carry out controlled, authorised technical testing on exposed assets (web applications, APIs, published services, mobile apps, and more) to identify real vulnerabilities, demonstrate their impact, and translate findings into a clear, prioritised and actionable improvement plan.

You can choose between two approaches depending on your objective:

  • Black box: no prior technical information. We simulate what an external, unprivileged attacker would see.
  • Grey box: partial information is provided to assess more specific scenarios and attack paths.

The outcome is clear: what to improve, in what order, and how.

Vulnerability Assessment.

A fast, reliable snapshot of what’s exposed.

We assess web applications, APIs, internet-facing services across domains and subdomains, mobile apps, and third-party integrations to identify vulnerabilities — without exploiting them.

To do this, we combine automated detection with expert analyst review to:

  • Reduce false positives and cut through the noise.
  • Validate findings with sound technical judgement.
  • Prioritise by severity and context.

We operate within agreed controls and execution windows to ensure the process is non-intrusive and does not disrupt normal business operations.

Accurate, prioritised, context-aware insight is what truly helps you reduce risk.

External Penetration Testing.

We test your perimeter exactly as a real internet-based adversary would.

Using a black-box approach, we assess the real-world exposure of your networks and internet-facing services (insecure configurations, unpatched vulnerabilities, forgotten attack surfaces, and more).

We’re not here to run “just another audit”. We measure impact and prove — with evidence — how effective your controls are against a real attacker.

We can also coordinate the exercise with your SOC, so it becomes a practical validation of alerts, incident response, and monitoring coverage gaps.

The outcome is clear: confirmed exposure, clear priorities, and verifiable remediation.

External Vulnerability Assessment.

What’s exposed to the internet is the first thing an attacker will test.

That’s why we identify vulnerabilities across your public IPs, ranges, domains and subdomains from a black-box perspective — safely, non-intrusively, and without exploitation.

We automate detection to ensure full perimeter coverage, then our cybersecurity analysts review and filter the results to remove false positives and prioritise findings based on severity and business context — without disrupting your operations.

You receive a clear report with evidence and practical recommendations — with the noise removed.

Internal Network Penetration Testing.

Sometimes the issue isn’t getting in — it’s what happens next.

An attacker may gain access through stolen credentials, a compromised device… or even from the inside (insiders). With this service, we simulate that scenario: what happens when an adversary already has a foothold in your internal network.

Using a grey-box approach, we operate like a real attacker with initial access and, in a controlled manner, test how far they could go — privilege escalation, lateral movement, access to sensitive data, and more.

The goal isn’t to make noise. It’s to give you practical visibility: which paths exist, which controls stop (or fail to stop) progression, what to close first, and how to reduce the impact of a potential intrusion.

Internal Vulnerability Assessment.

Once an attacker is already inside, the perimeter is no longer the deciding factor. What makes the difference is how easy — or difficult — it is to escalate privileges, move laterally, or maintain persistence within your internal network.

This assessment is designed to show you exactly that, without exploitation and without putting your organisation’s operations at risk.

Working from a grey-box starting point, we analyse servers, endpoints, network devices and internal services using automated scanning combined with expert validation by our cybersecurity analysts. This reduces false positives and turns findings into operational decisions your organisation can act on.

The result is a clear, structured view of what to fix first to strengthen your internal environment — with concrete, prioritised actions.

OT Penetration Testing.

In OT, a security failure doesn’t stay in a ticketing system — it can become a production stoppage, a physical safety risk, or a major financial loss.

That’s why we assess your industrial environment (ICS/SCADA, PLCs and other critical systems) using an approach designed not to compromise operations.

We combine expert analysis with specialised tooling to review controls aligned with IEC 62443, identify vulnerabilities and insecure configurations, and — crucially — uncover weaknesses in IT/OT segmentation.

We start with passive testing and, only where it makes sense, we move to validation that is agreed in advance, tightly scoped and carefully controlled.

You receive evidence-backed findings and prioritised mitigation actions, with optional re-testing to verify remediation — and the option to add OT threat intelligence to translate risk into what it means for your sector.

Because in OT, cybersecurity isn’t just protection — it’s continuity.

Red Team as a Service Lite (RTaaS Lite).

This isn’t a one-off exercise — it’s continuous reassurance that your defences are working.

Red Team as a Service Lite is an ongoing offensive security service where we simulate real attacks across any exposed surface within your organisation. Over time, and with evidence, we validate how you would respond to a real adversary — one you don’t know when or how they will strike.

It’s not a point-in-time audit of a single asset. We work across your organisation’s assets through regular exercises, adapting tactics, techniques and procedures to emerging threats and aligning with frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK.

The Lite option keeps the same mindset and value, but with a more focused scope and lower frequency than RTaaS Full.

Red Team as a Service (RTaaS Full)

RTaaS Full builds on the Lite service by incorporating richer attack scenarios — and, where appropriate, even physical intrusion attempts in offices or industrial sites — driven by a concrete objective defined by your organisation.

We don’t focus on a single asset. Any element of your organisation can become a target at any time, day or night. The purpose is to test whether your controls and defences hold up under unexpected conditions.

It’s the closest exercise to a real-world situation. Our Threat Intelligence service investigates your digital exposure (digital footprint, leaks, public indicators, and more). Based on this insight, we plan and execute the engagement aligned with MITRE ATT&CK tactics, techniques and procedures — adapting to emerging threats and the sector you operate in.

Exercises are conducted without prior notice, while always operating under pre-agreed rules of engagement and safety protocols.

In short: detection, containment and response — under pressure.

Red Team. Single Scenario.

When you need to validate what is truly critical.

A Single Scenario is a Red Team exercise built around one specific objective defined by the client — for example, accessing a particular database, compromising a privileged account, or taking control of a system.

Once the objective is agreed, we plan and prepare the operation — but the client won’t know when or how it will take place. The purpose is to measure whether the organisation can detect, contain and respond in time.

The outcome is practical and clear: stronger defences through understanding how they were bypassed, actionable recommendations to close gaps, and confirmation of the controls that are working as intended.

Red Team. Targeted Physical Intrusion Scenario.

Some risks don’t start with a phishing email or a technical vulnerability…

They start with an open door, an overloaded reception desk, or an access request that looks trustworthy.

This Red Team exercise focuses on a critical, measurable physical objective — for example: gaining access to restricted areas, connecting to systems that are not internet-facing, or accessing physical information and documents.

The goal is to assess whether your physical security measures are prepared to prevent a determined attacker from obtaining sensitive information or placing a device that could be leveraged later.

We define clear objectives and rules of engagement, and coordinate protocols in advance to ensure the exercise is controlled and does not disrupt your operations.

Threat Hunting.

Many advanced threats don’t make noise — they stay inside, observe, and wait.

With this service, we hunt for them before they become an incident, using a proactive approach focused on evidence and action.

We analyse your network and systems to detect hidden malicious activity — such as anomalous behaviour, signs of persistence, or movements that simply shouldn’t be there.

We align the hunt with MITRE ATT&CK, leveraging technical signals such as IoCs (Indicators of Compromise) and IoAs (Indicators of Attack), enriched with intelligence on real threat actors and tactics.

We work in close coordination with your SOC so findings don’t remain “just observations” — they translate into immediate containment, improved detection, and operational learning.

Mass Phishing Simulation.

Phishing remains the most cost-effective entry point for attackers — it doesn’t require breaking anything, just a moment of misplaced trust.

With our Mass Phishing service, we run controlled campaigns to measure — with data — how your organisation responds to malicious emails: clicks, interactions, credentials submitted, and reporting rates.

From metrics to improvement. We then turn those results into real progress: a clear report with conclusions and recommendations, plus targeted follow-up training sessions to reinforce learning.

It can be delivered as a one-off exercise or as a recurring programme — so improvement isn’t an event, but a culture.

Spearphishing.

Spear phishing isn’t about volume like mass phishing — it’s about deceiving the right person. A credible message, at the right moment, aimed at the right target.

This service tests, in a controlled environment, whether roles with critical access to information (executive leadership, finance, IT, operations, HR, etc.) can detect and stop this kind of attack.

Unlike mass phishing, we craft highly targeted communications for specific individuals using real, relevant context (role, responsibilities, suppliers, projects, relationships), informed by our intelligence capabilities.

The goal isn’t to “catch anyone out”, but to understand where trust can be exploited — and how to reinforce it.

After the exercise, you receive a report with interactions and evidence, conclusions and recommendations, plus a reinforcement session to strengthen the resilience of key teams and individuals.

Discover your vulnerabilities, strengthen your defenses.
