Red Teaming Services

Find out whether your organisation can detect and stop a determined attacker. Our red team runs objective-based, covert operations against your people, processes and technology, then works with your blue team to close the gaps.

The Evolving Threat Landscape

What Is a Red Team Engagement?

A red team engagement is a covert, goal-driven simulation of a real attack. Instead of listing every vulnerability, the red team pursues agreed objectives, such as reaching payment systems, domain admin or customer data, using any realistic path: phishing, external exploitation, physical access or an assumed breach. The result shows how far an attacker would get, and how quickly your team would notice and respond. Every operation is mapped to MITRE ATT&CK and run by certified, senior operators.

Benefits of Red Teaming

Penetration tests tell you what is vulnerable. A red team tells you whether it matters: whether your detection, response and processes stop a real attack before it reaches what you care about most.

Guided by Leading Cybersecurity Standards:

Our red team methodology follows MITRE ATT&CK, CREST guidance and the TIBER-EU red teaming approach, so results can be compared over time and support DORA and other regulatory requirements.

Test Detection, Not Just Defences
Measure how quickly your SOC, EDR and incident response spot and contain a stealthy attacker.
Realistic, Objective-Based Attacks
We pursue the business objectives that matter to you, using the tactics of the threat actors most likely to target you.
Expose Attack Paths Across Silos
Chain weaknesses across people, identity, cloud and on-premises systems that separate tests would never connect.
Improve Your Blue Team
A purple team replay turns every missed technique into a new detection and a better response playbook.
Board-Level Risk Insight
Executive reporting translates the attack narrative into business impact and investment priorities.
Regulatory Confidence
Red team results support DORA, NIS2 and TLPT readiness, and give auditors evidence of real-world resilience testing.

Red Team Engagement Types

Choose the engagement that matches your maturity and objectives, from a full-scope covert operation to a collaborative exercise with your defenders.

Full-Scope Red Team
Covert operations from external reconnaissance and initial access through persistence, lateral movement and objective completion.
Assumed Breach
We start from a compromised laptop or account to test internal detection and response quickly and cost-effectively.
Purple Teaming
Red and blue work side by side, replaying MITRE ATT&CK techniques to tune detections and response in real time.

What We Test & How We Approach It

Every engagement starts with agreed objectives and rules of engagement, and ends with an attack narrative, a MITRE ATT&CK mapping, detection gaps rated by risk, an executive briefing and a replay workshop.
