FAQs

Adversary simulation focuses on mimicking the behaviour of specific threat actors to test an organisation’s detection and response capabilities, whereas penetration testing aims to identify and exploit vulnerabilities within a system.

It provides a realistic assessment of how your security controls would fare against a real-world attack, highlighting gaps in your defences and offering insights on improving your overall security posture.

The exercise is carefully planned to minimise impact, with a clear set of rules of engagement. However, some minor disruptions may occur while testing your incident response.

Our service can be tailored to mimic specific adversaries that pose a significant risk to your organisation, using the latest threat intelligence to ensure accuracy.

We recommend at least once a year, but more frequent exercises can be beneficial, especially in rapidly evolving threat environments.

You will receive a comprehensive report detailing the emulation exercise, including findings, evidence of the emulation activities, and actionable recommendations for improving your security posture on our reporting platform, SmartView.

Adversary simulation is designed to help meet compliance requirements by testing your security controls and incident response to ensure they align with regulatory standards.
