How we partner with you
Evaluate
Expose real-world risk through offensive engagements that test your environment the way adversaries attack.
Develop
Build and mature defensible security operations and programs with documented processes, clear roadmaps, and capabilities your team owns independently.
Equip
Train your people in adversary tactics through hands-on courses and realistic environments designed by front-line practitioners. Explore training.
Secure
Continuously identify and eliminate identity attack paths to your most critical assets with BloodHound Enterprise. Build, scale, and mature your Attack Path Management practice with expert guidance through BloodHound Scentry.
Red team exercises
Our red team brings together the industry’s most experienced offensive security experts to simulate adversaries. Exercises replicate real-world tradecraft across traditional and AI-enabled systems, scoped to your priorities and designed to strengthen detection and response capabilities; not just identify gaps.
Practice response against worst-case scenarios without worst-case security risk
Close gaps in detection technology, investigation processes, and staff readiness
Receive collaborative debriefs with context to improve future response
Build institutional knowledge that strengthens your team between engagements
Penetration testing
We’ll work with you to define the objectives that matter most, focusing on viable attack paths to your most sensitive data and management systems across network, application, and specialty environments. Our objective-driven approach uncovers the “unknown unknowns” that standard testing misses.
Every finding tied to real-world impact and translated into business risk
Independent, third-party perspective from operators who know the adversary’s playbook
Evidence-based justification for security investments
Web application security assessments
Find exploitable vulnerabilities in web applications and AI-enabled interfaces before attackers do.
Findings focused on exploitable vulnerabilities with real impact, not noise
Assess from both authenticated and unauthenticated perspectives, including multi-role and multi-tenant testing
Deliver actionable remediation guidance with demonstrated impact on critical data
AI red team
AI systems introduce unique attack surfaces across models, pipelines, and supporting infrastructure. Adversaries are already exploiting them. We evaluate these systems across every stage of the lifecycle, breaking them down into individual components to identify vulnerabilities unique to AI alongside traditional infrastructure risks.
Evaluations across design and development stages
Infrastructure assessments from the perspective of a compromised user
Red team exercises against production AI systems to improve detection and response
Attack path assessments
Powered by BloodHound Enterprise, we comprehensively map chains of abusable privileges across critical assets to identify choke points in your identity attack surface.
Evaluate attack paths at scale across AD, Entra ID, GitHub, Okta, and JAMF
Eliminate thousands of exposures at critical choke points through prioritized remediations
Demonstrate measurable risk reduction to boards and auditors
Build and sustain security operations
Assessments reveal where you stand. Our program development services and maturity assessments help you build the teams, processes, and institutional knowledge that help you stay ahead of threats.
Maturity assessments
Benchmark capabilities, roadmap improvement
Program development
Build, strengthen and sustain security operations
Purple team assessments
Validate and improve detection and prevention
Custom solutions
Tailored engagements for unique security challenges
Maturity assessments
We’ll establish a defensible baseline and deliver a clear roadmap for measurable improvement.
Assess people, processes, and technology across your security operations program
Prioritize improvements that drive the greatest security impact
Provide evidence of due diligence and measurable progress over time
Program development
We partner with you to build robust prevention, detection, validation, and response capabilities across defensive and offensive operations.
Stand up red team, purple team, threat hunting, or detection programs
Develop attainable goals, effective metrics, and documented processes
Build programs designed for sustained capabilities and organizational ownership, not consultant dependence
Purple team assessments
Working alongside your team, we evaluate preventative and detective controls using comprehensive test cases that represent real attack variations.
Our layered testing model exposes where detection logic breaks down against real adversary behavior
Build institutional knowledge that strengthens your team’s detection capabilities
Develop repeatable validation methodologies your team can sustain
Custom security solutions tailored to your needs
Not every security challenge fits a standard engagement. We bring elite offensive security expertise and an adversary’s mindset to any technology, no matter how unique or emerging. Custom assessments, AI security evaluations, and advisory services deliver actionable outcomes, knowledge transfer, and measurable security improvements.
Get in Touch
Advancing AI security
As AI systems become critical infrastructure, they become targets. We bring the same adversary expertise that defines our services to the challenge of securing AI systems, from model evaluations and infrastructure assessments to enterprise-scale Cyber Ranges for AI used by the AI Security Institute (AISI) to evaluate frontier model capabilities. See AISI’s “Measuring AI Agents’ Progress on Multi-Step Cyber Attack Scenarios” research.
We’re operating at the forefront of this challenge as a participant in OpenAI’s Trusted Access for Cyber program, working alongside leading security firms and Fortune 500 enterprises to push the frontier of AI-enabled cyber defense.
What sets us apart
Adversary tradecraft expertise
Our services are built on deep understanding of how adversaries actually operate, not compliance frameworks or theoretical risk models.
Built and delivered by operators
The same people who publish the original research and build the tools we’re known for are the ones executing your engagements.
Capabilities you own
We build programs your team sustains independently. Every engagement includes knowledge transfer, documented processes, and leave-behind methodologies.
Measurable outcomes
Actionable findings tied to real-world risk, with clear remediation guidance and steps to reproduce that demonstrate security posture improvement.
Research that shapes the industry
Our team publishes original research like Certified Pre-Owned, NTLM Relay Attacks, and SCCM adversary tradecraft, and regularly presents at Black Hat, DEF CON, Troopers, x33fcon, ShmooCon, and BSides. This commitment to advancing the security community shapes how the industry understands and defends against adversary tradecraft.
Ready to close the gap?
Whether you need to validate your defenses, build your team's capabilities, or understand how adversaries see your environment, we're ready to partner with you.
