Test how effectively your organisation can detect, respond to and defend against realistic cyber attack scenarios.
Finding vulnerabilities is important. Understanding how your organisation would perform against a determined attacker requires a different level of testing.
Cecuri’s Advanced Security Validation services simulate realistic attack scenarios to test how effectively your people, processes and technology work together to detect and respond to threats.
Through Red Team and Purple Team engagements, we help identify defensive gaps, validate response capabilities and turn real-world testing into practical security improvements.
Simulate realistic attacker behaviour to test your organisation’s ability to detect, contain and respond to a sophisticated intrusion.
Red Team engagements can evaluate:
Bring offensive and defensive security teams together to test, tune and improve detection and response capabilities in real time.
Purple Team engagements can help:
Red Team
Tests your organisation from an attacker’s perspective, often without the defensive team knowing the details of the exercise in advance.
Purple Team
Tests your organisation from an attacker’s perspective, often without the defensive team knowing the details of the exercise in advance.
The right approach depends on your security maturity, objectives and the capabilities you want to validate.
Can your security controls and monitoring identify realistic attacker activity?
Can your team investigate, escalate and respond effectively when suspicious activity is detected?
Do people, processes and technologies work together effectively during an attack?
Can your organisation contain attacker activity and limit its potential impact?
Define objectives, rules of engagement, target environment and success criteria.
Identify relevant threat scenarios, attacker techniques and behaviours.
Conduct controlled attack scenarios aligned with the agreed engagement.
Measure detection, investigation and response throughout the exercise.
Analyse findings and provide practical recommendations to strengthen defensive capability.
Red Team reporting can include attack-chain documentation, MITRE ATT&CK mapping, detection gaps and response metrics, while Purple Team reporting includes detection coverage, SIEM recommendations and capability uplift planning.
Advanced Security Validation isn’t simply about finding another vulnerability. It provides an opportunity to observe how your security controls and teams perform against realistic attacker behaviour.
The findings can help improve detection coverage, strengthen response processes and give security teams practical experience responding to attack techniques relevant to your environment.
Advanced Security Validation uses realistic attack scenarios to evaluate how effectively an organisation’s security controls, people and processes can detect and respond to cyber threats.
Red Teaming simulates realistic attacker behaviour to test your organisation’s ability to detect, contain and respond to an intrusion. Exercises can be tailored to specific assets or broader organisational readiness.
Purple Teaming brings offensive and defensive security teams together in a collaborative exercise to test attack techniques, improve detection and strengthen response capabilities.
Red Team engagements test defensive capability from an attacker’s perspective, while Purple Team engagements involve greater collaboration between offensive and defensive teams to identify gaps and improve detection and response in real time.
Penetration Testing focuses primarily on identifying and validating vulnerabilities within systems and applications. Advanced Security Validation goes further by testing how effectively your organisation detects and responds to realistic attacker behaviour.
Yes. Cecuri’s Red Team engagements can be tailored to your organisation’s risk profile, target assets and security objectives.
Depending on the engagement, reporting can include attack analysis, detection and response gaps, MITRE ATT&CK mapping, prioritised recommendations and executive and technical summaries.
