RED TEAMING:
SILENT BREACH
We don't just find vulnerabilities. We become the enemy.
A full-scope simulation of a sophisticated cyberattack, testing your
people, processes, and technology against a real-world breach scenario.
// MISSION_PROFILE CONFIDENTIAL
OBJECTIVE: Compromise Critical Assets (Crown Jewels) without detection.
RULES OF ENGAGEMENT: No destructive malware. No ransomware. Full evasion authorized. Physical entry authorized.
DURATION: 4 - 6 Weeks
OPFOR TEAM: 3 Operators (1 Lead, 2 Specialists)
This is not a Pentest.
Penetration Testing is about finding bugs. Red Teaming is about testing defenders.
In a Pentest, we might find 50 vulnerabilities in 5 days. It's noisy, it's thorough, and everyone knows we're coming.
In a Red Team Engagement, we don't care about finding 50 bugs. We only need one. We move slowly, silently, and mimic the tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) of real-world threat actors like APT29 or LAPSUS$.
"The goal isn't to break the system. The goal is to see if your Blue Team can catch us breaking the system."
THE
GHOST MAP.
Before the first packet is sent, the war is won. We map your digital footprint using passive Open Source Intelligence (OSINT). We don't touch your servers yet. we analyze your people, your providers, and your mistakes.

CRACKING
THE ARMOR.
Technological defenses are strong. Humans are vulnerable.
We craft hyper-realistic pretexts based on our Recon phase. An urgent email from "IT Support" about a password policy update. A fake "Zoom Update" landing page.
It takes one click. Just one.
Once we have a credential or a code execution, we establish a beachhead. This is often a standard employee workstation—our foothold inside your castle.

LIVING OFF
THE LAND.
Attackers don't bring their own malware anymore (it gets caught). We use your tools against you.
We use PowerShell, WMI, and PsExec. These are tools your admins use every day. To your EDR, we look like a sysadmin. To your SOC, we are invisible noise.
This is called "Living off the Land".

HUNTING THE
CROWN JEWELS.
We are inside. But we are just a standard user. We need to become God (Domain Admin).
Corporate networks are messy. Active Directory is a maze of thousands of permissions, groups, and legacy settings. We use graph theory tools like BloodHound to find the shortest path through this chaos.
We don't hack machines; we abuse relationships. "User A can reset User B's password, who is an Admin on Server C..."
| HOP | NODE | METHOD |
|---|---|---|
| 01 | WKSTN-029 (Beachhead) | Local Admin |
| 02 | SRV-FILE-01 | Kerberoasting |
| 03 | DC-01 (Domain Controller) | DCSync |
GOD MODE.
We have escalated to Domain Admin. We now own your entire network. We can create users, read emails, decrypt passwords, and wipe logs.
Kerberoasting
Cracking service account tickets offline to reveal plaintext passwords.
DCSync
Impersonating a Domain Controller to request password hashes for any user.
Golden Ticket
Forging a TGT that is valid for 10 years. Infinite persistence.
Data Identification
Locating PII, IP, and Financial Records using automated regex crawlers.
Staging & Compression
Encrypting data into password-protected ZIPs to evade DLP scanners.
Exfiltration
Slow-drip upload via DNS tunneling or HTTPS to avoid traffic shaping triggers.
THE SILENT
HEIST.
It's not stolen until it leaves the building. Exfiltration is the delicate art of moving gigabytes of sensitive data past your DLP (Data Loss Prevention) systems.
We emulate ransomware gangs like LockBit or BlackCat. We identify your most valuable assets, compress them, and leak them slowly over encrypted channels.
