Red Team

What would be the impact of a real attack on your organization?

We simulate advanced attack on your organization — from social engineering through infrastructure to critical systems. Certified testers (OSCP, OSEP, OSCE3) work like real attackers, without scope limitations typical of pentesting.

For whom?

  • Large companies and corporations with high risk profile
  • Banks, insurers, financial sector firms
  • Critical infrastructure operators (energy, transport, telecom)
  • Public institutions and government agencies
  • Organizations preparing for advanced attack scenarios
What you get

Results

Attack Scenario Report

Documentation of entire attack path: how testers entered, what they extracted, where gaps were. Timing, tools, techniques used.

Business Impact Assessment

What would be the impact of this attack on your business? Could you lose data, revenue, reputation? How long to restore operations?

Detection Matrix

Which attack steps should your system have detected? Where did monitoring systems fail? What alerts should have fired?

Security Hardening Plan

Concrete recommendations: how to close each found gap. Prioritization by risk. Effort and budget estimates.

Strategic Session with Leadership

We present results to senior business and security leaders. We discuss risk, impact and mitigation strategies.

How we work

Red Team in 5 phases

  1. 01

    Briefing & scenario definition

    We define what attack we want to simulate (scope, entry points, target systems). Scope beyond traditional pentesting.

  2. 02

    Reconnaissance phase

    We gather open intelligence, scan the internet, social media, social engineering. How a real attacker would work.

  3. 03

    Initial access & lateral movement

    We attempt network access (phishing, vulnerable services, insiders). Then lateral movement inside network — we don't stop at first compromise.

  4. 04

    Data exfiltration & impact

    We attempt to extract data, achieve persistence, disrupt operations. We assess whether we could cause real damage.

  5. 05

    Report & educational session

    We deliver report with entire scenario. Training for red/blue team. Strategic session for leadership.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is red team just pentesting?
No. Pentesting assesses security of selected scope (app, network). Red team simulates real attack on entire organization — without rigid scope boundaries.
Can red team cause real damage?
Red team has maximal safety restrictions — we don't damage production systems. But we assess whether they could. Everything happens under your team's supervision.
What certifications do red team testers have?
Our testers hold OSCP, OSEP, OSCE3 — international advanced penetration testing certifications. All have 5+ years experience.
Can red team test social engineering?
Yes. Social engineering is part of real attacks. We test phishing, pretexting, physical security. With approval and team supervision.
How long does red team assessment take?
Typically 4–8 weeks. Depends on organization size and scenario. Larger scope = more time for development and exploration.

Check readiness for advanced attack

30-minute consultation about your risk profile and scenario you want to simulate. We propose red team scope.
