Red Team Assessment
A broad adversarial exercise that combines technical, social and physical methods to test how well the organization prevents, detects and responds to attack.
Know when to bring this work into the program.
Use a red team when leadership wants to test the organization as a whole, including prevention, detection, response and human decision-making.
A scope built around the risk.
A broad adversarial exercise that combines technical, social and physical methods to test how well the organization prevents, detects and responds to attack.
- Goal-based adversary simulation
- Technical, social and approved physical attack paths
- Detection and response without advance operational detail
- Realistic chaining across people, process and technology
Useful output for the people who must act.
- Attack narrative mapped to objectives
- Detection and response observations
- Control failures and successful defenses
- Strategic improvement plan and executive debrief
A process designed for red team assessment.
Set the objective
Begin with goal-based adversary simulation and confirm the systems, people and evidence needed to answer the client’s specific questions.
Emulate the adversary
Review technical, social and approved physical attack paths. Then evaluate detection and response without advance operational detail to determine whether the relevant controls operate as intended.
Observe the response
Assess realistic chaining across people, process and technology and connect the result to credible security, operational and business impact.
Debrief and improve
Provide attack narrative mapped to objectives and detection and response observations, then align responsible parties around the next actions.
Move from activity to clarity.
Can an attacker achieve a defined business objective?
To answer this, Elteni analyzes goal-based adversary simulation together with technical, social and approved physical attack paths. The client receives attack narrative mapped to objectives, with the evidence, context and next steps needed to act.
Which activity is detected, investigated and contained?
To answer this, Elteni analyzes technical, social and approved physical attack paths together with detection and response without advance operational detail. The client receives detection and response observations, with the evidence, context and next steps needed to act.
How well do teams coordinate under uncertain conditions?
To answer this, Elteni analyzes detection and response without advance operational detail together with realistic chaining across people, process and technology. The client receives control failures and successful defenses, with the evidence, context and next steps needed to act.
The result does not have to live in another report.
Relevant findings, evidence, owners and remediation status can be centralized in the Elteni Platform as part of an ongoing relationship.
