RED TEAMING

RED TEAMING



Red teaming is the practice of looking at a problem or situation from the
perspective of an adversary. A red teaming exercise emulates Tactics,
Techniques, and Procedures (TTPs) of real adversaries to test assumptions and
improve the security posture of people, processes, and technology in the target
environment.

In order to realistically emulate how a sophisticated adversary operates, red
teaming exercises usually have specific objectives and a broad scope. They may
include unconventional attack techniques, such as OSINT, social engineering, and
physical intrusions. Each attack attempt is tracked along with its outcome,
which may be:

 * Attack is prevented
 * Attack is remediated
 * Attack is successful but detected
 * Attack is successful and goes undetected

By training the defenders (the “blue team”), as the effectiveness of detection
and response policies, procedures, and technologies is measured in the field,
red teaming ultimately improves the preparedness and resilience of an
organization against real adversaries.

APPLICATION ASSESSMENT

For almost all organizations, data is what […]

APPLICATION ASSESSMENT



For almost all organizations, data is what matters most. Payment and financial
data, patient health information, personally identifiable information (PII), and
intellectual property all need to be identified and secured. Often, applications
are the main assets that store, process, and transmit such data.

Modern applications rarely involve a single component. It is common for an
application to encompass multiple components, such as an application server, a
web server, and a database server. Securing an application means securing the
full stack: all components must be identified and secured, especially those that
are exposed to end users and therefore cannot be protected by means of network
security controls.

Security assessments can be conducted on all types of applications and their
components, including:

 * Web applications
 * Mobile apps
 * Application Programming Interfaces (APIs)
 * Databases
 * Client-server applications
 * Chatbots
 * Voice assistants

By mapping the attack surface of applications, security assessments allow to
identify vulnerabilities and exposures and ensure integration of best practice
security controls for the protection of mission-critical data.

SYSTEM ASSESSMENT

SYSTEM ASSESSMENT



Applications store, process, and transmit mission-critical data. However, for
their functioning, application components rely on servers that enable and
support operations. Beside application components such as application servers,
web servers, and database servers, modern infrastructures include servers
providing identity and access management (often delegated to Active Directory),
file sharing, software distribution, backup, monitoring, logging, and similar
services. These functions can be on premise or Cloud-based, implemented as
regular services or as modern microservices in dedicated containers.

In addition to servers, workstations (especially administrative workstations)
play a fundamental role in the security of an organization. For this reason,
they are frequently a preferred target for attackers that aim to compromise
mission-critical data and operations.

Security assessments can be conducted on all types of systems and
infrastructures, including:

 * Active Directory
 * Windows and Linux servers
 * Windows workstations
 * AWS, Azure, and GCP Clouds
 * Containers and orchestration tools

By mapping the attack surface of systems, security assessments allow to identify
vulnerabilities and exposures and ensure integration of best practice security
controls for the protection of mission-critical operations.

NETWORK ASSESSMENT



Applications and servers are the fundamental components that must be secured in
order to protect mission-critical data and operations. However, for their
functioning, they rely on network architectures and communication protocols that
seamlessly enable operations in an increasingly interconnected world.

Network architectures (from the classic perimeter-based model to the modern zero
trust paradigm), communication protocols (wired and wireless, used to transport
data or voice) and network devices (switches, routers, firewalls, application
proxies, load balancers, etc.) are constantly evolving to support business
needs.

Security assessments can be conducted on all types of network architectures and
communication protocols, including:

 * IPv4 and IPv6
 * IPsec and TLS VPNs
 * Voice over IP (VoIP)
 * Wi-Fi
 * NFC and RFID
 * Bluetooth
 * LoRaWAN

By mapping the attack surface of networks, security assessments allow to
identify vulnerabilities and exposures and ensure integration of best practice
security controls for the protection of mission-critical communications.

IOT ASSESSMENT

IOT ASSESSMENT



The Internet of Things (IoT) describes the network of physical objects that are
embedded with sensors, software, and other technologies for the purpose of
connecting and exchanging data with other devices and systems, over the Internet
or other TCP/IP networks.

By acting as cyber-physical bridges, IoT devices can influence the physical
world and may therefore directly impact the safety of individuals and
organizations. For this reason, their security and reliability are extremely
important for both vendors and end users.

Security assessments can be conducted on all types of IoT devices and networks,
including:

 * Smart home devices
 * Smart city devices
 * Healthcare systems
 * Transportation systems
 * Physical access controls and smart locks
 * Video surveillance and alarms

By mapping the attack surface of IoT devices and networks, security assessments
allow to identify vulnerabilities and exposures and ensure integration of best
practice security controls for the protection and safety of individuals and
organizations.

SCADA/ICS ASSESSMENT

SCADA/ICS ASSESSMENT



Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) and industrial control systems
(ICS) are devices that manage, command, direct, or regulate the behavior of
other devices or systems. They take a set of input data from their sensors and
perform a function based on such data and on established parameters. Control
systems can have different sizes and complexities, depending on the process they
monitor and control.

Many types of industries, often labeled as critical infrastructure, rely on
SCADA/ICS, including:

 * Energy industry, such as electric power and oil & gas
 * Service industry, such as transportation and logistics
 * Factory automation and process industry

Risks related to control systems usually exceed those of IT infrastructures
because they include human safety and environmental damage. These risks must be
considered while assessing the security and reliability of SCADA/ICS.

Security assessments can be conducted on all types of SCADA/ICS devices,
including:

 * Distributed control systems (DCS) and programmable logic controllers (PLC)
 * Human machine interfaces (HMI), historians, alarm servers, and engineering
   workstations
 * Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) and remote terminal units
   (RTU)

By mapping the attack surface of industrial control systems, security
assessments allow to identify vulnerabilities and exposures and ensure
integration of best practice security controls for the protection of critical
infrastructure.

BANKING/FINTECH ASSESSMENT



Financial services are the economic services provided by the finance industry.
They concern a broad range of businesses that manage money, including banks,
insurance companies, payment processors, and credit bureaus.

Financial technology (Fintech) is an emerging industry that applies technology
to improve financial activities. Fintech includes new applications, processes,
products, or business models in the financial services industry, provided as an
end-to-end process via the Internet. The interconnection is enabled through open
banking APIs and supported by regulations such as the European Payment Services
Directive (PSD2). Fintech is used to automate investments, insurance, trading,
banking services, and risk management.

Security assessments can be conducted on all types of financial platforms, from
traditional mainframes to modern Fintech applications, including:

 * Internet banking
 * Mobile banking
 * Open banking APIs
 * Credit bureau applications
 * Mainframes
 * ATM devices
 * Cryptocurrency

By mapping the attack surface of Banking/Fintech platforms, security assessments
allow to identify vulnerabilities and exposures and ensure integration of best
practice security controls for the protection of financial services.

SECURITY BY DESIGN

Security should not be an afterthought. […]

SECURITY BY DESIGN



Security should not be an afterthought. Fundamental design flaws sometimes
cannot be solved after deployment. In addition, it might not be feasible to
replace an already deployed system especially after a significant investment has
been made to develop or acquire it. As a result, it is much more difficult and
expensive to address security after deployment rather than during development.

Organizations should be designing for security. Fundamental security tasks
should be executed starting from the very beginning of a project. The process
should be driven by secure system development life cycle (SSDLC) principles,
along with threat and maturity models.

In this context, hybrid design, architecture, and configuration reviews can be
conducted across different life cycle phases (from design to development, from
deployment to maintenance) to measure the security posture of different hardware
and software platforms. These reviews include:

 * Secure design review, conducted via documentation, interviews, and practical
   testing
 * Configuration review of servers, workstations, network equipment, and mobile
   devices
 * Attack surface analysis, conducted via threat modeling, practical testing,
   and dedicated metrics
 * IAG assessment, aimed to evaluate the maturity of identity and access
   governance practices
 * Password analysis, encompassing password dumping, cracking, and statistical
   analysis
 * Network segregation testing, aimed to evaluate firewall ACLs and other
   network segmentation controls.
