Red Teaming
Why perform a Red Teaming exercise?
Red Teaming helps identify vulnerabilities and weaknesses in your company’s security posture that may not be apparent in day-to-day operations.
The red teaming tests the company’s ability to detect and respond (e.g. your company’s SOC monitoring team) to an attack, providing a realistic measure of the effectiveness of the current security controls and incident response procedures.
It can help improve security awareness among employees by demonstrating the potential impact of a successful attack.
It allows a company to take a proactive approach to its security, rather than waiting for an actual attack to occur.
Red Teaming can uncover operational risks that might be missed during a risk assessment. Validate Investments: It can help validate your company’s investment in security, by testing whether the controls that have been put in place are working as expected.
