Red Teaming as a Service — Adversary Simulation India

What is Red Teaming?

Red Teaming as a Service is a managed adversary simulation program where skilled operators emulate real threat actors against crown-jewel objectives — not just a scoped vulnerability list. Engagements follow a structured nine-phase workflow: objectives and rules of engagement, threat modeling, ASM-driven reconnaissance, initial access, manual attack simulation, lateral movement, crown-jewel validation, purple-team workshops, and executive debrief. Findings map to MITRE ATT&CK techniques and your ISO 27001, SOC 2, or RBI cyber resilience controls inside ComplAI Assurance.

Who needs Red Teaming?

CISOs, SOC directors, and resilience teams at BFSI, SaaS, healthcare, and critical infrastructure organizations that need board-ready proof of detection and response effectiveness — especially when regulators, enterprise customers, or internal risk committees ask for adversary simulation beyond an annual penetration test.

Key topics & methodology

• Objective-based adversary simulation vs scoped pentest
• Nine-phase engagement workflow — objectives through executive debrief
• Manual attack simulation with operator-led exploit chains
• MITRE ATT&CK emulation and ATT&CK heatmaps
• Purple-team workshops — live SOC / SIEM detection tuning
• ComplAI ASM recon overlay and VAPT depth validation
• Executive and technical reporting with GRC control mapping

Typical engagement timeline

Typical red team engagements run 4–8 weeks depending on scope, crown-jewel complexity, and purple-team workshop cadence. Many enterprises run an annual full-scope exercise plus quarterly focused scenarios (phishing, insider, supply chain) aligned to RBI or ISO cyber resilience calendars.

How ComplAI & Propel Ready deliver Red Teaming

• Managed nine-phase red team program inside ComplAI Assurance — not a standalone PDF
• Manual attack simulation with PoC evidence tracked in the live finding register
• MITRE ATT&CK technique mapping and board-ready heatmaps
• Purple-team sessions with your SOC to tune detections during the exercise
• ASM-driven external recon to mirror real attacker discovery paths
• Pairs with VAPT as a Service for layered depth and retest validation

Red Teaming FAQ

What is red teaming as a service?

Red Teaming as a Service is a managed adversary simulation engagement where Propel Ready operators emulate real threat actors against your crown-jewel objectives — with manual attack simulation, lateral movement, purple-team tuning, and GRC-mapped debriefs tracked inside ComplAI Assurance.

How is red teaming different from penetration testing?

Penetration testing validates specific systems against a scoped vulnerability list with retest close-out. Red teaming emulates a persistent adversary pursuing objectives — often combining social engineering, manual attack chains, and detection evasion. Many programs run both: VAPT for depth and red team for resilience validation.

Do you deliver red teaming in India?

Yes. Propel Ready Solutions delivers managed red team engagements for Indian enterprises — including BFSI and RBI cyber resilience scenarios — with on-site or hybrid purple-team workshops and ComplAI-hosted reporting.
