Expose Weaknesses to Fortify Defenses

Simulate attacks with the Cobalt Red Team to better understand the effectiveness of your security controls and SOC readiness. Using real-world attack techniques, Cobalt helps you understand how a determined adversary might gain access to your systems and compromise digital assets.

BENEFITS

Simulate an attack to clearly understand breach risks

Attackers don’t need to find all the vulnerabilities in your environment, they just need to find one. Whereas pentesting aims to find all possible vulnerabilities in an application or target environment, red teaming simulates what an attacker would do to break into your environment and steal user data or intellectual property.

Using real-world attack techniques, Cobalt helps you understand how a determined adversary might gain access to your systems and compromise digital assets.

Identify vulnerabilities
Test applications and networks to reveal hidden weaknesses in your defenses.
Validate security controls
Actively test your threat detection capabilities, SOC team readiness, and incident response processes.
Reduce the impact of a breach
Find out how to shore up defenses and lock down systems, reducing the likelihood and impact of a future attack.
OUR APPROACH

Red Team objectives tailored to your goals

During red team testing, Cobalt works with you to define objectives and expectations. Our multifaceted approach includes:

  • Initial Access and Assumed Breach testing.
  • Custom methodologies combined with the MITRE ATT&CK framework.
  • Testing for tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) of known adversaries.
  • Real-time collaboration with security experts.
  • Extensive findings with remediation guidance.
  • Shareable Reports for all internal stakeholders via the Cobalt Platform.
  • Combine Red Team services with Application and Network Pentesting to improve security posture.

“Part of protecting information, part of protecting data is to show that you're regularly checking whether there are any security issues. And this model that we have set up with Cobalt, the continuous security monitoring, helps a lot.”

Security Liaison Engineer at Vonage
“One of the main benefits is the variety of skill sets that you’re able to tap into because Cobalt has a community of pentesters that you can really draw from. We don’t have to hire more red team people, we can bring them on as needed.”

Adam Surak,
Head of Security at Algolia
“Now, engineers almost looking forward to testing. They know that the interactions with the pentesters make them better engineers. The pentesters clearly explain security issues and proposed mitigations. Then our engineers can review the findings, ask questions and bring their own expertise to the mitigation process. Together, we come up with solutions that benefit our customers. It is no longer a burden for engineers to be included in the pentesting process. In fact, Cobalt works exactly how you want a penetration test to work.”
