360 degree Simulation of Whole of Enterprise Attacks and Penetrations.
Test your defenses against sophisticated attackers through elite, real-world adversary emulation. Ancore's Red Team Services deploy skilled operatives to mimic nation-state threats across networks, applications, physical access, and human targets, uncovering exploitable gaps, measuring detection capabilities, and delivering targeted strategies to harden your organization before real attacks strike.
How Ancore’s Red Team Exercise Strengthens Your Business
Ancore's Red Team Exercise simulates real-world adversarial attacks to expose weaknesses in your defenses. Our certified ethical hackers deploy advanced tactics, techniques and procedures mimicking sophisticated threats. Conduct comprehensive penetration testing across networks, applications and physical perimeters, followed by detailed debriefs and remediation roadmaps. This battle-tested approach uncovers hidden vulnerabilities and validates your security posture.
-

Expose Hidden Vulnerabilities
Receive a prioritized list of exploitable weaknesses with proof-of-concept demonstrations and exploitation paths.
-

Validate Defensive Controls
Obtain empirical evidence on control effectiveness, highlighting gaps in detection and response capabilities.
-

Deliver Actionable Remediation
Gain a customized roadmap with step-by-step fixes, timelines and metrics to strengthen your security framework.
Our Methodology
-
Reconnaissance maps assets, users, and workflows using passive intelligence gathering. Build adversary dossiers mirroring real threats.
-
Develop multi-stage operations blending social engineering, exploits, and persistence techniques. Tailor to your sector's threat profile.
-
Execute initial access via phishing, exploits, or physical vectors, then pivot laterally. Simulate APT dwell times accurately.
-
Evade sensors and blue teams while exfiltrating mock data. Measure alert fidelity and containment velocity.
-
Embed backdoors and C2 channels to assess cleanup challenges. Validate removal under adversarial resistance.
-
Analyze full engagement with timelines, TTP mappings, and maturity gaps. Recommend architectural evolutions.
Three Month Solution
Month 1
Reconnaissance
We begin by understanding the economic context and drivers that will shape the business's future performance. This involves analysing market dynamics, competitive positioning, regulatory environment and key value drivers such as pricing power, customer concentration and operational leverage. We then examine the historical income statement, normalising for non-recurring items and adjusting to reflect sustainable, maintainable earnings. By week's end, you'll have a clear picture of what drives value in the business and a clean baseline of historical financial performance.
Exploitation
Month 2
Attack vectors are explored via a deep dive through targeted exploitation attempts and advanced simulations. This covers evaluating authentication bypasses, privilege escalations, lateral movement techniques, and persistence mechanisms. Common pitfalls like exposed APIs, weak session management, and misconfigured RBAC are tested. Impacts from successful breaches, such as data exfiltration or ransomware deployment, are demonstrated while prioritizing targets by business criticality, data sensitivity, and exploit success rates. The output is a penetration test report with exploited paths, proof-of-concept demos, and high-fidelity attack reconstructions.With the income statement baseline established, we build detailed revenue and cost forecasts based on the economic drivers identified in week one. These projections account for market growth rates, pricing trends and operational assumptions. We develop the forecasting model that translates strategic assumptions into projected income statements for the forecast period, ensuring all line items are properly linked to underlying drivers.
Reporting and Remediation
Month 3
With attack campaigns complete, full-scope findings are synthesized using structured debrief frameworks and remediation roadmaps. Detailed attack narratives, forensic evidence, and defensive countermeasures are documented. Effectiveness against frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK and NIST are validated. Remediation priorities and blue team uplift recommendations are negotiated. You get comprehensive exercise reports complete with executive summaries, technical deep dives, remediation playbooks, and retest validation criteria. Your key takeaway is a battle-hardened security posture with prioritized fixes, enhanced detection capabilities, and sustained adversary emulation readiness.
