Red Teaming Companies DACH - Red Team Providers Europe

What Is Red Teaming?

Red Teaming (also: Red Team Assessment or Adversary Simulation) is the most realistic form of offensive security testing. Unlike traditional penetration tests, Red Teaming simulates multi-stage, real-world attacks on an organization - spanning technical, physical, and social attack vectors.

A Red Teaming Assessment tests the entire defense chain under real-world conditions: from the initial access phase through lateral movement to achieving critical business objectives. The Blue Team's (SOC, CERT, IT Security) detection and response capabilities are also evaluated.

Red Teaming vs. Penetration Testing

Both approaches are complementary and ideally combine in a comprehensive security strategy.
