Red Teaming

Red teaming is an adversarial simulation where a team of security professionals (the 'red team') attempts to breach an organization's defenses using real-world attacker techniques. Unlike penetration testing, which typically focuses on finding vulnerabilities in specific systems, red teaming tests the organization's overall security posture including people, processes, and technology.

Why It Matters

Red teaming reveals whether your security controls actually work under real attack conditions. It tests not just your technology, but your detection capabilities, incident response procedures, and security team's ability to identify and respond to threats.

How Redsight Helps

While Redsight focuses on external penetration testing rather than full red team engagements, our autonomous agent uses real attacker techniques and adapts its approach based on what it discovers — bringing red team methodology to automated testing.
