Adversary Simulation: Test Your Defenses Against a Real-World Attack

How would your organization truly perform against a skilled, persistent adversary? Not a scanner, but a thinking attacker who adapts, improvises, and relentlessly pursues their objective. Our Adversary Simulation service is designed to answer that question. This is the ultimate test of your security program, where we emulate the actions of a genuine threat actor to measure the real-world effectiveness of your people, processes, and technology.

Who Is This Service For?

This service is designed for mature security programs and leaders who need to know their true state of readiness:

• CISOs and Security Directors who must validate the ROI of their security stack and demonstrate resilience to the board.

• Security Operations (SecOps) Leaders who need to test the detection and response capabilities of their team and tools.

• Incident Response (IR) Teams seeking to pressure-test their playbooks and identify gaps before a real incident.

• Executive Leadership who need assurance that the organization can withstand a sophisticated, targeted attack.

The Ultimate Test of Your Security Program:

A successful simulation provides clear, evidence-based answers to your most challenging questions:

• Can our security team detect and respond to a stealthy, "low-and-slow" attack campaign?

• Will our expensive security tools actually prevent a hands-on-keyboard attacker from reaching their goal?

• What is our organization's true breaking point when faced with a determined adversary?

• Are our response procedures effective under the pressure of a live incident?

Our Approach: A Spectrum of Adversarial Realism

"Adversary Simulation" is a broad term. We tailor our engagements to your specific objectives, offering a spectrum of intensity and scope. This includes focused Red Teaming and comprehensive Tiger Teaming exercises.  

1. Objective-Based Red Teaming: You define the "crown jewels"—a critical data set, a key system, or a business process. Our team's objective is to breach your defenses and achieve that specific goal. This is a focused test that measures your ability to protect a high-value asset against a targeted attack.

2. Full-Scope Tiger Team Attack: This is a comprehensive, no-holds-barred test of your entire organization's resilience. We simulate a well-resourced threat actor with a broad objective, such as "achieve widespread access and control." This holistic engagement tests every facet of your defense, from your perimeter to your deepest internal controls.  

Your Deliverables: A Story, Not Just a Report

The outcome of a simulation is more than a list of findings; it's a narrative of the attack that provides unparalleled insight.

• Executive Attack Narrative: A strategic debriefing for leadership that tells the story of the engagement, from initial compromise to final objective, focusing on business impact and key defensive failures or successes.

• Technical Attack Path Analysis: A detailed, step-by-step timeline for your technical teams, showing exactly which TTPs (Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures) were used and which controls were bypassed.

• Defensive Gap Remediation Plan: Actionable, prioritized recommendations for improving your detection and response capabilities, including specific guidance for tuning tools and refining processes.
