Preparing for unpreparedness. It's a thing.
Malicious cyber actors can exploit vulnerabilities that don't yet have any protection or detection mechanisms available or in place. Conducting attack simulations can help prepare your organisation to combat the inevitable unknowns of a cyber attack.
Attack simulations are designed to test the strength of an organisation's security mechanisms by launching a simulated attack on its infrastructure.
These types of tests help organisations identify, understand, and implement better technical defences against attacks, with minimal disruption to their daily activities.
The simulations are conducted in a controlled environment with the help of cyber security consultants and can measure key performance indicators (KPIs) such as:
Whatever your needs are in terms of attack simulation testing, on-demand or as part of your cyber security assessment, we have you covered.
Red teaming exercises are the best way to strategise how to develop your defensive capabilities comprehensively. Our teams can simulate the role of an attacker to test the defences of your perimeter and internal network. We can also engage with your internal security team throughout this process to help improve your overall security posture.
Purple teaming is an exercise in unifying the powers of both the red and blue teams, typically with an objective to improve communication, build trust, and increase speed for incident response. We can simulate attacks on your business with objectives to test detection mechanisms, identify vulnerabilities, and maintain access throughout the course of the attack simulation.
Assumed breach testing begins with our testers on the target network investigating what can be achieved if an attacker successfully breaches the network perimeter. We will take steps to escalate privileges and map your network, find vulnerabilities, and determine if there are any blind spots in your detection capability.
Foreign interference testing combines threat hunting and cyber security testing. It analyses your detection capabilities and how your organisation deals with probing and sustained threats within your network. While testing within the network, our associates will also search for signs of intrusion and malicious activity. Anchoram's foreign interference tests simulate real-world incidents so that you can develop pragmatic and effective incident response mechanisms.
