Pentest People has announced its new Red Team Assessment Service which is designed to help organizations to improve their defences against advanced persistent threats.

In a routine penetration test, organizations commission Pentest People's cybersecurity experts to test their websites, applications and IT systems for any weaknesses that could allow cybercriminals to steal information, damage IT systems, or hold data to ransom.

The new Red Team Assessment Service comprises an expanded penetration test across a broader range of attack points that is tailored to each organization's risks and which mimics the actions of a sustained attack on an organization's IT systems, cloud services, web applications, physical premises and people.

The broader scope of the Red Team Assessment Service is especially useful for organizations that manage critical infrastructure, or financial systems and comply with CBEST testing of operational resilience.

"Commenting on the new service, former soldier, Dave Benson, security consultant at Pentest People said,"By applying the combined expertise of our web application, cloud service, infrastructure, and social engineering consultants, our Red Team Assessment Service is designed to test whether an organization can withstand a full-scale cyberattack.

The Red Team Assessment Service uses proprietary security tools, written by Pentest People's security researchers, which makes use of application programming interfaces created during numerous open source intelligence assignments.
