Red Teaming & Exercises

Cyber exercises by and with Clarified Security

Clarified Security has been the Red Team service provider for NATO CCDCOE’s large-scale live-fire cyber exercise Locked Shields since 2012. Over more than a decade we have helped to train thousands of Blue Teamers under extreme pressure and complexity of this exercise.

Since 2015 we have been also offering our own Cyber Range eXercise (CRX) to select customers. CRX is aimed at technical personnel and can be customized to the training audience - for training both, the defence (Blue Teams) and offense (Red Teams). Our turn-key CRX package can be enhanced with custom content and also “Cyber Physical” components. Often, one of our relevant hands-on training courses  precedes the CRX.

We run our hands-on courses and the CRX content on our own Cyber Range . However, thanks to our Ansible based open-source Catapult  tool, we deploy content repeatably in “Exercise as code” manner. Thus, we can fling the same content essentially onto any Cyber Range or cloud infrastructure.

We also support CCDCOE with the Crossed Swords exercise and provide red teaming for several different exercises hosted by our partners.

Our customers and partners are taking use of our exercise deployment and Red Teaming framework tools  that are free and some even open source. Feel free to check those tools out and why not invite us to support your cyber exercises as well.

Production Red Teaming by Clarified Security

In addition to cyber exercises, Clarified Security started offering Red Teaming services to organizations in production environments in 2017. With European Central Bank blessing TIBER-EU framework  in 2018, based on earlier national TIBER frameworks, production Red Teaming demand has slowly picked up across Europe.

The most realistic cyber exercise is the one where you defend your own production environment against a Red Team, so let us know when you want to play for real.
