Service Overview
DeepSeas introduces Non-Assume Breach as a strategic add-on to our esteemed Adversary Simulation services. While traditional adversary simulations often operate under the premise that a breach has already occurred, the
Non-Assume Breach service takes a step back, focusing on the initial barriers and defenses. It evaluates the effectiveness of preventive measures and examines the difficulty for adversaries to gain an initial foothold in your
environment. By assessing the robustness of the outer layers of your security infrastructure, this service provides
invaluable insights into the efficacy of your frontline defenses. Paired with our core Adversary Simulation, the Non-Assume Breach add-on ensures a comprehensive 360-degree assessment, from initial penetration attempts to post-breach scenarios, fortifying your organization's defenses at every stage.
Methodology
The following steps are taken during a Non-Assume Breach engagement with DeepSeas, assessing potential entry points without the assumption of a prior breach; the Non-Assume Breach service offering ensures a holistic front-line defense for organizations, fortifying against the broad spectrum of cyber threats:
- Initial Engagement & Scope Definition
- Initiate discussions with the client to understand their environment, objectives, and potential areas of concern.
- Clearly define the targets and boundaries of the engagement, ensuring a shared understanding of the areas to be assessed and any off-limits components.
- Preliminary Analysis
- Perform an initial survey of the organization's existing security measures and mechanisms.
- Understand the current security protocols in place and their effectiveness.
- External Perimeter Assessment
- Analyze externally facing assets like firewalls, web applications, and other potential entry points.
- Employ passive and active scanning techniques to identify external vulnerabilities without assuming any prior breach.
- Employee Security Awareness Evaluation
- Conduct simulated social engineering tests, such as phishing campaigns or direct communication, to gauge the staff's awareness and response to potential security threats.
- Measure the resilience of human assets against manipulation or deceit.
- Analysis & Correlation
- Collate and analyze findings from the external, internal, and human-focused assessments.
- Identify patterns or potential blind spots in the organization's security measures.
- Report Compilation
- Develop a comprehensive report detailing all identified vulnerabilities, potential risks, and security strengths.
- Highlight any areas that may be particularly susceptible to breaches.
