Adversary Exercises

Test your organization’s Blue Team capabilities with Secureworks Red Team exercises based on real-world adversary tactics to find detection and prevention gaps, measure response, and boost defense.

Challenges

Defending Against an Unknown

Improving game-time experience against a skilled attacker within your environment is an essential part of today’s reality and important to achieve breach readiness.

Red Team Testing

Moving Target

Adversaries constantly evolve their TTPs – so must you. Mature response programs need regular, varied tests emulating adversaries.

Insight

Lacking Visibility

Mistakes and gaps in your security tools can hinder your visibility. Proactively illuminate gaps to shore up detection and defense.

Lacking Experience

Lack of Experience

Without experience, it’s difficult to detect or respond adequately to cyber incidents, significantly increasing risk and impact.
