Realistic Security Tests
Simulation of advanced attacks to assess the effectiveness of the organization’s defenses, in accordance with TIBER-EU Compliance.
Red Team
Red Team is an advanced cybersecurity approach that simulates real attacks to identify vulnerabilities in systems, networks, and processes. Its objective is to test the organization’s effectiveness in detecting, defending, responding to, and recovering from incidents.
Incident Response Assessment
Test the company’s defense team (Blue Team)’s ability to detect, respond to, and contain real threats.
Critical Vulnerability Identification
Discover technical, human, and physical flaws within the organization that can be exploited by attackers.
Security Posture Improvement
Provide practical recommendations to continuously improve your organization’s security.
Red Team vs. Pentest
Characteristic |
Red Team |
Pentest (Penetration Test) |
|---|---|---|
| Objective | Test the organization’s overall defense (including people and processes) | Identify vulnerabilities in specific systems or applications |
| Scope | Broad: systems, networks, people, processes, and physical security | Narrow: well-defined technical scope |
| Approach | Stealthy and realistic attacks, simulating real threat actors | Direct technical approach to exploit vulnerabilities |
| Duration | Long-term (weeks or months) | Short-term (days or weeks) |
| Techniques used | Social engineering, physical intrusion, phishing, APTs, advanced exploitation | Automated and manual tests for technical flaws |
| Target | Assess the detection and response capabilities of the security team (Blue Team) | Discover and report specific technical weaknesses |
| Visibility | Usually without the defensive team’s prior knowledge | Conducted with the technical team’s awareness |
Types of Tests
Social Engineering
Testing an organization’s vulnerability to human error through customized phishing simulations, credential theft, Identity Intelligence, and other techniques that exploit trust and human interaction.
Physical Intrusion
Attempts to gain unauthorized physical access to facilities to test physical security. We assess barriers such as access control, credential misuse, and malicious devices.
Threat Intelligence
Using public and dark web data to identify real risks and compromised information about the organization.
Ransomware
Simulating ransomware attacks to assess defense and response capabilities. Testing the attack’s impact on infrastructure, backup efficiency, recovery times, and resistance to data exfiltration.
TIBER-EU
Threat Intelligence-based Ethical Red-Teaming
European standard that defines how to conduct realistic security tests (Red Teaming) based on threat intelligence, without causing damage and to assess the resilience of critical organizations, such as banks and infrastructure.
