Assumed Breach Simulations

Prepare for the unexpected with assumed-breach assessments. We simulate a breach already inside your environment to evaluate detection, containment, and response — answering the question every board asks: 'What happens when they get in?'

Scope this engagement

The ATT&CK techniques we emulate.

Mapped to real adversary tradecraft — so coverage is auditable, not a vague promise.

Coverage that maps to real risk.

Segmentation and containment validation

How the engagement runs.

A disciplined, repeatable arc — so results are comparable and defensible.

  1. 01

    Scenario selection and foothold provisioning

  2. 02

    Escalation and movement under realistic constraints

  3. 03

    Objective actions against agreed targets

  4. 04

    Timeline reconstruction with your SOC

  5. 05

    Reporting and containment-improvement plan

What you walk away with.

Attack-path map from foothold to crown jewels
Detection timeline vs. attacker timeline
Containment and segmentation recommendations
Executive summary with risk quantification

Every finding is rated on the CVSS severity scale:

  • CRITICAL9.0–10.0
  • HIGH7.0–8.9
  • MEDIUM4.0–6.9
  • LOW0.1–3.9
  • INFO0.0

Questions we hear a lot.

Initial access is a matter of time and budget for real adversaries. Assumed breach spends your engagement measuring what matters: blast radius and response.
