Offensive Security

Purple Teaming.

Red teams and blue teams working side by side to find what your defenses miss.

Why purple

Purple is purposeful.

When you blend offensive and defensive security together, something clicks.

A purple team's mission is to correlate threat actor techniques with your detective and defensive controls, so your organization gets alerted to threats and, where possible, mitigates them without human intervention. Simple purpose, critical impact.

This is

How we do it.

Together, In real time, With help, Without stress, And to improve your environment.

The exercise

Red and blue, in the same room.

Five ways a purple team engagement moves your defenses forward.

Red and blue team experience
Together,

Red + Blue Experience

Our operators come from both adversarial and defensive backgrounds. We identify, replicate, and detect the TTPs attackers use, and whatever your EDR, we help you tune detection, alerting, and blocking. We don't just get it, we get it right.

Real-time remediation and validation
In real time,

Remediation & Validation

The real payoff is collaboration and live feedback. Tune and enhance your tools in the moment. We help refine your stack until it is properly alerting and defending against each test case. Play chess, not checkers.

ATT&CK Heat Map

We are fine standing on the shoulders of giants. MITRE built a comprehensive matrix for assessment inspiration, a clear visual map for improving detection, prevention, and monitoring controls. We are happy to use it.

Stress-free exercise
Without stress,

Stress-Free Exercise

Relax, it is all just war games. We scope the right tests, refine detection controls, and explain why and how these TTPs get used. With compromises guaranteed to surface, your team can focus on improving controls across the whole stack.

Create a winning blue team
And to improve your environment.

A Winning Blue Team

Red or blue, the goal is the same: defeat hackers. By the end, your teams and tools are sharper and better positioned to detect and shut down real intrusion attempts. We'll help you send 'em packing.

In the end

It's all about the report.

Big on content, short on fluff.

01

Executive Summary

Give senior leadership a clear picture of exactly what was done, why it was done, and how the organization is more secure for it. Strategic recommendations, packaged for executive delivery.

02

Results

Test cases organized to the MITRE framework, the current standard in attacker TTPs. Each one includes the risk it poses and the steps the team took to remediate it, with any extra considerations for full remediation.

03

Appendices

Only useful, meaningful appendices. We don't inflate reports with filler. If it helps you, it's in there: campaign summaries, processes, and results with images, stats, tools, and techniques.

Very glad we reached out for our comprehensive pen testing. Not only did Eric and team perform detailed testing, they provided up-to-date feedback and assisted us with recommendations after testing. We really appreciate the partnership and will grow our relationship even further in 2025 and beyond.

The SEVN-X approach to penetration testing is unlike anything I have encountered in the past. Their innovative approach and deep skillsets not only reveal technology problems but also uncover people and process related problems. I consider our company more secure having partnered with SEVN-X.
