Red Team Services

A red team test is a simulated cyberattack on an organization's network, systems, and physical premises to test its security posture and resilience. The purpose of this service is to identify and exploit vulnerabilities, assess the effectiveness of security controls, and provide recommendations for improvement.

Key Advantages of Red Team and Assumed Breach Assessments

Red team testing is an invaluable practice for any organization looking to bolster its cybersecurity posture. By simulating a cyberattack on an organization’s network, systems, and physical premises, red team testing provides a realistic assessment of how well an organization can withstand an actual attack. SBS' experienced network security team identifies and exploits vulnerabilities, assesses the effectiveness of security controls, and offers recommendations for improvement. This proactive approach allows organizations to discover weaknesses before they can be exploited by malicious actors, ensuring that defenses are as robust as possible.

Furthermore, red team testing goes beyond traditional vulnerability assessments by incorporating social engineering, physical security breaches, and advanced persistent threats that mirror the tactics used by real-world adversaries. This comprehensive testing ensures that all aspects of security are scrutinized and that the organization’s response mechanisms are thoroughly evaluated.
