Standard security tests check known doors and windows. Red teaming asks whether an attacker can get into your company through the skylight, the chimney, or a tunnel under the foundation. It is an advanced simulation of a real attack that evaluates your defenses end-to-end - from technology and processes to the resilience of your employees.
Our team of ethical hackers steps into the role of a real adversary. Using methods such as OSINT (Open-Source Intelligence), social engineering, and targeted attacks, we look for ways to bypass your existing security controls. The goal is not only to find individual vulnerabilities, but to expose systemic weaknesses in your defense and give you a strategic view of your red teaming security.
Team certifications
A common question is: "We already do penetration tests, do we also need red teaming?" Both services are essential, but they serve different purposes. While penetration testing looks for as many vulnerabilities as possible in a defined scope (e.g., a single application), red teaming operations test your ability to detect a sophisticated, targeted attack and respond to it.
In short, a penetration test answers: "What vulnerabilities do we have?" Red teaming answers: "Can we detect and stop a determined attacker before they reach their goal?"
| Criteria | Penetration testing | Red Teaming |
|---|---|---|
| Goal | Find as many vulnerabilities as possible in a defined scope. | Test detection and response capabilities against a real attack. |
| Scope | Narrowly defined (e.g., web application, API). | Broad and flexible (entire organization, including people and processes). |
| Methodology | Often open, with partial knowledge of the system. | Discrete and covert, simulating a real adversary (adversary simulation). |
| Output | List of technical vulnerabilities and remediation recommendations. | Strategic report on detection, response, and overall resilience failures. |
Red teaming is suitable for organizations that already have baseline security controls and want to take their cyber resilience to the next level. It is ideal if you:
Want to test the effectiveness of your internal security team (Blue Team) and SOC.
Need to verify whether your investments in security technologies are actually working.
Want to realistically assess the impact of a successful cyberattack on your business.
Are preparing to meet demanding regulatory requirements such as NIS2.
We know that every company is different. That is why we offer three levels of cyber security red teaming services tailored to your size, maturity, and budget.
Ideal for smaller companies or organizations just getting started with red teaming. A cost-effective option that provides valuable insight without the complexity of large-scale operations.
Designed for mid-sized organizations that need a more comprehensive assessment. It offers a broader scope of simulated attacks and evaluates a larger number of systems, processes, and employees.
The most comprehensive package for large enterprises or organizations with complex infrastructure. It offers unlimited scope, deep testing, and validates resilience against advanced persistent threats (APT).
Operation phases
Our approach is systematic and transparent. Each operation runs through three key phases that simulate the steps of a real attacker.
Phase 1
Before any attack happens, we gather publicly available information about your organization. We map your digital footprint, identify key employees, analyze technologies in use, and look for any information an attacker could exploit.
Information gathering
Technology reconnaissance
Preparation for social engineering
Phase 2
Based on findings from phase one and after agreement with you, we choose the most suitable attack vectors. The goal is to gain initial access to your network and reach predefined objectives (for example, access to sensitive data).
Possible attack methods
Phase 3
Our goal is not just to "hack" your company, but to provide concrete and understandable steps for improvement. Our final report is written so both technical experts and management can use it.
Our latest case study details how we used advanced red teaming techniques to identify critical vulnerabilities for one of our clients and helped them significantly strengthen their security.
Red Teaming is a process that simulates attacks by real adversaries against your organization. The goal is to understand how an attacker could gain access, bypass defenses, and how effectively you can respond to the incident.
Yes! Smaller companies are also targets. Our Red Teaming Mini service is designed to give smaller organizations an affordable view of their real security and to uncover critical weak spots. Attackers do not care if the organization is small or large.
The NIS2 directive requires a demonstrable level of cybersecurity. Red teaming is one of the best ways to verify whether your technical and process controls are truly effective and whether you can withstand sophisticated threats, which is crucial for compliance.
You receive a detailed report with an executive summary, technical findings, risk evaluation, impact analysis, and prioritized remediation recommendations. It also includes a personal presentation where we explain the results and answer your questions.
Do not leave security to chance. Find out where your weak spots are before a real attacker does. Schedule a no-obligation consultation and we will prepare a tailored proposal for you.
