Beyond Traditional Penetration Testing

Red Teaming is not a penetration test – it is a goal-oriented, unrestricted attack simulation designed to mirror the techniques of advanced persistent threats (APTs). SilentGrid's Red Team engagements test your organisation's ability to defend against multi-phase, stealthy adversaries who aim to bypass controls created by your technology, processes, and personnel security awareness.

Our approach goes beyond vulnerability identification, and actively simulate real-world intrusion scenarios, assessing how effectively your defences can prevent, detect, and respond to prolonged attacks.

Red Teaming exposes the true state of your security operations, incident response capabilities, and detection blind spots – delivering insights that cannot be gained through standard penetration tests.

How We Operate – The Red Team Lifecycle

SilentGrid follows a structured yet adaptive approach to Red Teaming, allowing flexibility as new attack paths emerge during engagements.

1

Reconnaissance and Target Selection

  • • Passive and active intelligence gathering to profile external attack surfaces
  • • Open-source intelligence (OSINT) and social engineering to identify exploitable vectors
2

Initial Compromise

  • • Targeting externally accessible infrastructure, third-party services, and employee endpoints
  • • Techniques include spear phishing, supply chain compromise, and application exploitation
3

Persistence and Privilege Escalation

  • • Establishing footholds within compromised environments
  • • Persistence techniques bypassing EDR and maintaining access through custom tooling
4

Lateral Movement and Internal Reconnaissance

  • • Credential harvesting, Active Directory exploitation, and pivoting across networks
  • • Identifying sensitive systems, mapping internal environments, and expanding access
5

Objective Execution and Exfiltration

  • • Attaining predefined objectives such as data exfiltration, domain dominance, or insider threat emulation
  • • Testing data loss prevention (DLP) mechanisms and network monitoring tools
6

Reporting and Knowledge Transfer

  • • Comprehensive documentation of findings, attack paths, and remediation guidance with executive and technical reporting

Continuous Adversary Simulation

Red Teaming is not a one-time exercise – threats evolve constantly. SilentGrid offers continuous adversary simulation services to ensure your organisation is always prepared.

Through ongoing engagements, we:
