The stage where we establish a first foothold inside your environment, just as a real intrusion begins. It tests whether your perimeter, people and controls can stop an attacker getting a toehold at all.
Most real intrusions start with a person. A convincing, tailored lure beats any exploit for getting inside.
We run targeted phishing and pretext campaigns crafted from the reconnaissance picture, testing whether staff and controls stop the first foothold, mapped to the MITRE ATT&CK Initial Access tactic.
Where people hold the line, technology often does not. Exposed and misconfigured services are a direct route in.
We identify and exploit exposed services, weak credentials and unpatched software to gain a foothold, chaining findings safely into genuine access rather than theoretical risk.
The softest edge is often physical: a tailgated door or a wireless network reachable from the car park.
Where in scope, we test physical and wireless intrusion as alternative paths to that first foothold, reflecting how a real adversary picks the easiest way in.
It tests whether your perimeter, people and controls can stop an attacker getting a first foothold at all. We use targeted phishing, credential harvesting, exploitation of exposed services and, where in scope, physical and wireless intrusion, mapped to the MITRE ATT&CK Initial Access tactic.
Yes. Lures are tailored from the reconnaissance picture to match how a real attacker would target your people, rather than generic template phishing, so the result reflects genuine resilience.
Only where it is explicitly in scope and agreed in the rules of engagement. Physical and wireless intrusion are treated as alternative paths to a foothold and run safely, with coordination to avoid disruption.
A foothold is only the start. The engagement then moves through command and control, privilege escalation and lateral movement toward the agreed objective, showing how far a real intrusion could spread.
