BAS / Red Teaming

BAS / Red Teaming

Breach and Attack Simulation (BAS) and Red Teaming enable organizations to proactively test and validate security controls by emulating adversary tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs). BAS automates continuous simulation of common attack vectors such as phishing, lateral movement, and privilege escalation while Red Teaming delivers targeted, human-driven adversary campaigns to uncover complex gaps in people, process, and technology layers.

Core Features & Capabilities

  • Automated BAS Workflows

    • Schedule ongoing simulations of phishing, malware execution, and network exploits

    • Validate EDR, NGFW, IAM, and email gateway configurations against known threat scenarios

    • Generate risk scores and remediation recommendations for high-risk controls

  • Human-Led Red Team Exercises

    • Conduct threat-informed, goal-based campaigns emulating advanced persistent threat (APT) actors

    • Utilize social engineering, physical security testing, and custom malware to test detection and response

    • Deliver detailed attack narratives, timelines, and technical evidence for executive and SOC teams

  • Purple Team Collaboration

    • Facilitate joint BAS and Red Team engagements with blue teams to refine detection rules and playbooks

    • Share simulated adversary telemetry to tune SIEM, SOAR, and threat-hunting processes

    • Measure improvements in Mean Time to Detect (MTTD) and Mean Time to Respond (MTTR) over time

  • Attack Surface Discovery & Prioritization

    • Automatically map exposed external and internal assets, user privileges, and misconfigurations

    • Rank attack paths by likelihood and impact to focus remediation efforts on critical risks

    • Integrate with vulnerability scanners and asset inventories for continuous alignment

  • Reporting & Continuous Validation

    • Real-time dashboards display simulation outcomes, control efficacy, and security posture trends

    • Executive summaries and technical reports provide actionable insights for remediation and investments

    • Compliance-ready evidence demonstrating ongoing security validation for standards like PCI DSS, ISO 27001, and NIST

Business Benefits

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

BAS automates regular emulation of common attack techniques—such as phishing, lateral movement, and privilege escalation—to validate security controls and identify gaps without manual red team efforts.

Red Teaming involves skilled security professionals conducting targeted, goal-driven adversary campaigns that include social engineering and custom exploits, uncovering complex vulnerabilities beyond automated BAS scenarios.

Purple Teaming brings Red and Blue teams together, sharing adversary simulation telemetry to collaboratively tune detection, response playbooks, and security controls, improving overall security maturity.

Yes. These solutions integrate with EDR, SIEM, SOAR, vulnerability scanners, and IAM platforms via APIs and connectors to feed simulation data and automate remediation workflows.

Key metrics include control coverage scores, Mean Time to Detect (MTTD), Mean Time to Respond (MTTR), and reduction in exploitable attack paths over successive simulations.
