Red Team: attack your defenses before someone else does
Go beyond traditional security testing. Our Red Team service emulates sophisticated adversaries using real attack techniques – uncovering hidden risks, testing your defenses end-to-end, and strengthening your organization’s resilience where it matters most.
- MITRE ATT&CK-based adversary emulation
- Engagement-based or continuous
- DORA & TIBER-EU aligned
Test your organization the way attackers actually would
A full-scope security assessment that simulates real-world attack scenarios – combining technical exploitation, social engineering, and stealth operations to evaluate your detection, response, and overall cyber resilience.
What you get with our Red Team Service
Realistic attack simulation
We emulate advanced threat actors using techniques like reconnaissance, phishing, lateral movement, and privilege escalation.

Two ways to Red Team. One goal.
Engagement-based
- Limited-time engagement emulating smash-and-grab tactics of APT groups
- Evaluates your security posture at the time of the engagement
- Single OSINT investigation and social engineering campaign before the engagement
- All reports delivered at the end of the testing engagement
Best for
First-time red team testing, post-major organizational and/or infrastructure changes, or periodic defense gap analysis.
Continuous Red Teaming
- Long-term testing emulating low-and-slow tactics of APT groups that dwell in the target environment
- Evaluates your security posture over an extended period of time
- Multiple OSINT investigations and social engineering campaigns throughout the service
- Continuous interim and status reports throughout the service
Best for
Long-term security posture evaluation, frequent organizational and infrastructure changes, or ongoing assurance requirements.
FAQ | Red team
A simulated cyber attack that tests your organization’s ability to detect and respond to real-world threats across people, processes, and technology.
Penetration testing exhaustively enumerates vulnerabilities within the defined scope, while Red Teaming is goal-based and uses any real-world adversary techniques within the target organization to achieve the set goals.
No – engagements are carefully planned and aligned with your business to minimize disruption.
Red Team engagements typically run from several weeks to several months, depending on the scope, engagement goals, and complexity of your environment. Continuous Red Team testing can last between multiple months and one year.
Red Teaming is best suited for organizations with established security controls that want to validate their real-world effectiveness. It’s especially valuable for companies in high-risk or regulated industries that need to test their ability to detect, respond to, and manage advanced threats across systems, people, and processes.
Yes – red teaming can be delivered as a standalone exercise or as part of a broader adversary simulation programme that includes purple teaming and threat-led penetration testing. Standalone engagements are well-suited for organisations that want a focused, objective-based assessment.
