Adversary Attack Simulation

Effectively mitigate cyber threats and illuminate covert attack paths into your establishment, while concurrently making any potential adversaries apprehensive. Our adversary simulations are intended to prepare your defences for any cyber onslaught, with the intention to prevail, both technologically and strategically.

Our engagements are designed to fortify and enhance your system's breach readiness, incorporating extortion techniques, stealth trade-craft and esoteric attack vectors seldom included in conventional penetration testing.

Engagements are thorough and lengthy, typically spanning no less than eight weeks per project and involving between 450 to 500 work hours.

We work with zero prior knowledge. We do not request network access, physical access, domain user accounts, IP address ranges, or network diagrams. We manually conduct all simulation actions and write our reports by hand. Our reports, meticulously crafted, are straightforward and comprehendible, and we will personally guide you through the outcomes.

Though selective scope security assessments provide considerable academic value, they may be prone to defender bias, blind spots, and tunnel vision effects, potentially compromising your infrastructure security and customer data. Worse still, they may breed a false sense of security. As a result, we simulate the most challenging cyber scenarios imaginable, including those not previously considered. In our current climate, corporations and their defense teams can no longer define the scope, path, or make linear predictions of a potential attack.

We strive to create positive disruption, challenging both established and emerging security methodologies, and rigorously scrutinising your infrastructure. We dissect every security layer to its core components, regardless of cost or marketing hype, assisting you in achieving a secure environment encompassing sound security engineering and the implementation of practical, proven solutions.

Given the sensitive nature of our services, we engage exclusively with established entities and corporations that are genuinely interested in enhancing their security, as well as that of their customers.
