Red Team - Pinebar

Why Conduct a Red Team?

Today’s IT environments are under constant threat from advanced, persistent attackers. But most security programs remain reactive addressing vulnerabilities after they have been exploited.

Red Team Testing turns uncertainty into clarity helping you validate your security controls, prove resilience to stakeholders, and stay steps ahead of adversaries.

Here’s what CISOs and IT leaders are facing:

Vulnerabilities not detected by traditional detection methods persist across networks, endpoints, and cloud infrastructure

Incident response plans go untested until it’s too late, with some proving to be ineffective when put into play

Security tools and teams are unproven against real-world attack scenarios

Identify misconfigurations with detection and response capabilities

Compliance audits miss practical security gaps that threat actors exploit

80%

“80% of security breaches are due to misconfigurations or human error.”

Our Red Team Approach

Red Team Testing delivered by Pinebar simulates sophisticated, multi-stage cyberattacks to test your defenses in a controlled environment.

Our expert-led assessments mimic the tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) used by real threat actors, targeting your people, processes, and technology.

From initial access to lateral movement and exfiltration, we uncover blind spots and deliver usable notes.

Pinebar’s
Red Team Capabilities

Adversary Simulation Using Threat Actor TTPs

Replicates real-world cyberattacks using the latest threat actor TTPs to test your environment under realistic conditions.

Targeted Reconnaissance & Exploitation

Identifies potential exploitable attack vectors and technical information that can enable follow-on activities to meet the engagement objectives.

Lateral Movement & Persistence Testing

Maps internal attack vectors and assesses how far an attacker could go once inside your network, all while attempting to evade detection.

Cloud & Hybrid Environment Coverage

Includes testing across AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and on-prem infrastructure to match your unique environment.

Executive-Ready Reporting for Defenders

Delivers clear, business-aligned reporting with technical findings, risk ratings, and strategic recommendations.

Compliance Alignment Reinforces Audit Readiness

Supports frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK, NIST 800-53, and ISO 27001 to reinforce compliance and audit readiness.

A Red Team case study

Critical National Infrastructure Organisation Identifies Crucial Physical Security Flaws

The client wanted to understand how resilient their headquarters is to an on-premise physical attack, to drive physical security awareness within the local teams, and identify gaps in the current access-control processes.

The team identified a common pattern: a delivery person came to site on a weekly basis to deliver groceries. By pretexting a special delivery, our Red Team operative was able to gain entry without any authorization, access the building where the company datacenter was housed, and obtained unsupervised access to the internal corporate network.
