RED Teaming


What is Red Teaming?

A red team assessment is a goal-based adversarial activity performed by penetration testers to get an in-depth view of your organisation from the perspective of a threat factor. This assessment is designed to meet the needs of organisations handling a variety of sensitive assets through technical, physical, or process-based means. The purpose of a red teaming assessment is to demonstrate how real world attackers can combine exploits to steal your sensitive information. Expert penetration testers give you the upper hand against opportunistic hackers by unearthing weaknesses you didn't know existed and ensuring you can make better informed security decisions on people, process and technology.


Benefits of our service

A Red Team Operation from Cyber Partners is designed to far exceed the remit of traditional security testing by rigorously challenging the effectiveness of technology, personnel and processes to detect and respond to a highly targeted attack conducted over an extended period of time.

Red team assessment - validate, don't assume

Our approach is flexible and tailored to your risk profile, regulatory requirements and budget so you always have the level of protection you need.

Remote workers and employees are easy pickings for hackers. Measuring and increasing security awareness should be a top priority of any organization looking to improve their IT security

You know your security is lacking in certain areas but can't put your finger on it. Red teaming can accurately reveal security failings through simulated attack scenarios to provide insights that you can act on

Our “red team” aims to simulate a real-world attack to gain access to your critical assets and data across your whole organisation. Rather than searching for every single vulnerability, red teaming aims to uncover key exploits, identify optimal security configurations and prepare your Security Operation Centre for the real thing.

No matter how much you have invested in security, you won't know whether they worked until disaster strikes. The only way to know is through a stress test. Red teaming does just that to answer the question of 'How secure are we, really?'

One of the biggest security vulnerabilities of any organisation is its people. We use social engineering to test the security awareness and preparedness of your staff, using things like phishing emails and fake landing pages to attempt to gain login information from your staff. Thorough training will ensure staff are vigilant against future threats.

With a thorough review of your end-user devices, cloud configurations, servers, VPNs, firewalls or active directory, we can assess the security configuration of your assets to ensure that they can’t be used as a vector to attack your organisation.
