Red Team Testing

While the Penetration Testing Services can occur anywhere in the network environment, the Red Team Test is an all-out attempt to gain physical or cyber access to a critical infrastructure system from the outside, with little or no information about the target. During a Red Team Test, a highly skilled team of security professionals use adversary techniques commonly used by hackers, cyber terrorists, and motivated criminals to gain either physical or cyber access of a critical infrastructure system. Ground rules for these types of projects are negotiated and documented prior to project start, and our teams operate under the restraint that they can "do no harm" to any physical, electronic, or cyber systems during the Red Team Test. To maximize the value of a Red Team Test, the test should be performed in a very covert manner, and no one on the inside of the IT or security teams should be tipped off that this type of test is underway. Usually, the project sponsor is the only one at the client location that is aware that this test is being performed.
