We are experts in developing and improving security operations capabilities, increasing our client’s readiness against adversary attacks. We leverage our deep experience and knowledge of adversary techniques to support our clients, all the way from point-in-time assessments improving specific defensive capabilities, to serving as the trusted advisor and partner driving improvements across the entire security operations program.
Our experience across hundreds of government, defense industry, financial, and healthcare environments has taught us that the most vital component of a robust security posture is understanding how adversaries will operate against the organization’s enterprise environment. We build our services around that perspective, focused on analyzing and improving attack path detection capabilities and validating defensive efforts through attack simulation. We believe that technical capabilities have their place, but the human component to any security program is absolutely critical. Our objective is to train and arm our clients with the knowledge of how the effective use of the interlocking components of their security program provide a robust security posture and readiness against active directory attacks and other vulnerable system attacks.
Our assessments focus on adversary capabilities and techniques present in the “real world,” translating risk into actions an organization can achieve. Our advisory services are designed not to just help the organization install another technology, but to help improve attack path detection and response capabilities over time, keeping our clients informed of adversary capabilities and preventing effective operations of advanced threat actors.
Whether you are building new adversary detection and simulation teams or looking to mature existing competencies, we provide an effective approach focused on comprehensively integrating technical components into the overall security operations program, ensuring robust prevention, detection, and response capabilities. SpecterOps team members bring extensive security experience from finance, healthcare, military, intelligence community, and federal programs. Leveraging lessons learned building and supporting teams across these diverse environments, we tailor our approach to your capability development and maturation needs. Save the wasted effort of months of ineffective trial and error by focusing your approach on building transparent, effective, and repeatable adversary simulation and assessment capabilities that measurably improve organizational security.
It can be difficult to build out or grow a new adversary simulation and detection capability without prior experience. Whether you are trying to stand up an internal Penetration Testing, Red Team engagement, Purple Team, Threat Hunting, or Detection program, SpecterOps has the background to ensure your success. We work to ensure there are attainable goals and metrics and design a path to success. We strive to build a program that is owned and operated by you, not continually dependent on us, meeting your organization needs and avoiding common pitfalls plagued by many organizations.
SpecterOps provides a third-party adversary focused perspective of your enterprise environments. Leveraging expertise built through years of experience and assessments across industries and hundreds of environments, our operators use our understanding of advanced Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTPs) to effectively assess and improve your security posture and ability to respond to today’s sophisticated attacks.
The objective of our penetration tests is to assist the organization in understanding the full impact of a potential breach and evaluate how effective security controls work to protect the most critical assets. Our team of experts will work with you to design penetration testing engagements that will achieve the greatest impact on assessing your risk visibility into your environment. Our experience enables us to execute a methodology while also assuring penetration testing is cost-effective and timely.
The difference in our penetration testing service is that we focus on impact objective driven testing. Whether we are attempting to access sensitive information, breach security boundaries, or access management systems, you can be sure that our time is efficiently spent on comprehensively testing your organization’s capability to protect critical assets.
TL;DR This blog presents a framework using technology subgraphs, decomposition, and graph abstraction to model hybrid attack paths and scale attack path management across enterprise technology platforms. I am also releasing SecretHound to model secrets using BloodHound OpenGraph. Backstory While performing a recent red team assessment, my team came across the GitHub Secret Scanning service. […]
