Offensive Security
Overview
We attack your cloud, CI/CD pipelines, and defenses the way a real adversary would, from full red-team simulations to regulator-driven threat-led testing, and we fix what we find, delivering remediation as Terraform your team can review and ship. Security that doesn't stop at the report.
Cloud & CI/CD Red-Teaming
A realistic attack simulation targeting your cloud infrastructure and CI/CD pipelines. The goal is to simulate a real attack and understand how far an attacker could get, how they could move through your cloud and build systems, and whether your company can detect or stop them.
We test the paths an actual attacker would take to reach an agreed objective.
The Process
-
Set the objective
We define attacker goals together with you. For example, gaining access to production systems, reaching sensitive data, deploying malicious code through the CI/CD pipeline, establishing persistence in your cloud accounts, or impacting the availability of a critical service
-
Understand your environment
We map the parts of your cloud and CI/CD setup that matter for the attack objective. This gives us the possible entry points, movement paths, and high-value targets. This is about understanding how an attacker would operate, not reviewing configurations.
-
Choose the attack path
We choose the attack path an actual attacker would most likely follow: the starting point they would use, the privilege level they would target, and the services or systems they would try to move through.
This path reflects how an attacker would think and act in your environment and becomes the blueprint for our attack simulation.
-
Execute the attack
We execute the attack end-to-end along the chosen path to see what an attacker could realistically achieve in your environment. At each step, we test whether the attacker can advance, what systems they can reach, what data they can access, and where your monitoring or controls stop them.
This shows you exactly how far an attacker could get, what would be detected, what would be missed, and where your real security gaps are.
-
Provide actionable improvements
We give you prioritized recommendations tied directly to the attack path we proved. You see exactly which weaknesses made progress possible and what you need to fix to stop it, with improvements focused on visibility, detection, and response.
The Outcomes
-
An accurate picture of how your cloud and CI/CD setups withstand a real attacker
-
What the attacker would achieve
-
What you need to fix to stop them
Threat-Led Penetration Testing
A TLPT built to satisfy DORA's testing requirements. We use real intelligence about your sector to emulate the specific adversaries most likely to target you, test your live production systems the way those attackers actually would, and give you the evidence your regulator expects.
Red-teaming with a regulator in the room.
The Process
-
Scope for the regulator
We define your critical functions, the systems in scope, and the DORA and TIBER-EU parameters together with you, and align with the relevant authorities where required. This sets the boundaries before getting started.
-
Build the threat intelligence
We gather sector-specific intelligence on the adversaries actually targeting financial entities like yours, and turn it into realistic, evidence-based attack scenarios. The test emulates real threats, not generic ones.
-
Emulate the adversary
We run the red team against your live production environment along the intelligence-led scenarios, testing people, processes, and technology the way the real threat actor would, to a controlled and agreed objective.
-
Measure detection and response
At each step we test whether your blue team detects the activity, what they miss, and how fast they respond. This shows how your defenses hold under a realistic, targeted attack.
-
Deliver regulator-ready report and evidence
We provide the findings, a prioritized remediation plan, and the documentation DORA requires, followed by a purple-team debrief that turns what we proved into concrete detection and response improvements.
The Outcomes
-
Evidence that satisfies DORA's threat-led penetration testing obligation
-
A realistic measure of how you withstand the adversaries targeting your sector
-
What your blue team detected, missed, and how fast it responded
-
A prioritized remediation plan tied to the scenarios we proved
