Red Teaming
You can never know how secure your own systems are until they are attacked. Our Red Team experts help you get an effective demonstration of tangible risk to plan future security initiatives.

Advanced Persistent Threat
What is Red Teaming?
Red Teaming is used to test an organization's detection and response capabilities. Our Red Team attempts to access sensitive information in any way possible and as undetected as possible. This assessment emulates a malicious actor actively attacking and attempting to evade detection, similar to Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) or cyber threat.
Levels of Abstraction
Differences between Red Teaming and Penetration Testing
The decision whether to perform a pentest or to use a Red Team can only be made in accordance with the company's own objectives. Our Red Team attempts to access sensitive information in any way possible and as undetected as possible. This assessment emulates a malicious actor actively attacking and attempting to evade detection, similar to Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) or cyber threat.
- Search for weak points with which the goal can be achieved
- A Red Team Assessment does not look for multiple vulnerabilities, but for the vulnerabilities that can be used to achieve the goals.
- No detailed listing of vulnerabilities
- A pentest, on the other hand, is designed to uncover as many vulnerabilities and configuration issues as possible, exploit them, and determine the level of risk. The methods used by the Red Team include social engineering, electronic and physical pentests, and all the methods generally used in a security assessment.
- Longer project duration and preparation time
- Red Teaming operations have narrowed down the objectives and concurrent approach. They often require more people, resources, and time as they go in depth to fully understand the realistic level of risk and vulnerabilities related to an organization's technology, people, and physical resources.
Also called Adversary Simulation
When should Red Teaming be used?
An adversary simulation is a realistic simulation of a real attack, which takes into account not only technical but also human security factors that are not included in conventional pentests. All digital and analog processes from a company's IT security management are put to the test and an attempt is made to access sensitive information in every conceivable way and as undetected as possible. This provides valuable insights, from prevention to detection to response, and achieves awareness among the responsible employees.
- Measurable IT security detection and response capability
- Realistic understanding of risk for the organization
- Help with remediation of identified attack vectors
- Gather knowledge about attack methods
- Testing the response of IT processes
Range of Services for Cyber Security
Further useful Services within the Scope of an IT Security Audit
- Penetration Test
- Penetration tests are simulated attacks from external or internal sources to determine the security of web applications, apps, networks, and infrastructures and uncover any vulnerabilities.
- Cloud Security
- Due to the increasing complexity of cloud infrastructures, many services are misconfigured. We help you identify and eliminate misconfigurations and their effects.
- Phishing Simulation
- A spear phishing simulation is used to increase the detection ability of employees. We help you to sensitize your employees and thus strengthen the last barrier.
- Static Code Analysis
- Static code analysis, also known as source code analysis, is typically performed as part of a code review and takes place during the implementation phase of a Security Development Lifecycle (SDL).
