Insider Threat and Assumed Breach

We start from the assumption that an attacker or insider is already inside, and show how far they could go before you notice.

// Overview

What this service is.

Insider threat and assumed breach exercises simulate an adversary who already has a foothold, through compromised credentials, a malicious insider or a prior intrusion.

Starting inside saves time and focuses the work on what matters most: containment, detection and the protection of your most valuable assets.

Why assume a breach?

What starting access do you use?

We agree it with you, for example a standard user account or a managed workstation.
