Key Offerings
Adversary Simulation and Penetration Testing
Analysts identify weaknesses by emulating real-world adversaries and malicious insiders to test your resilience against sophisticated attacks. Using a 20/80 approach—20% automated tools and 80% manual, custom-crafted exploits—we uncover vulnerabilities that automated assessments often miss. Each engagement simulates advanced tactics like privilege escalation, lateral movement, and data exfiltration to expose real risks and demonstrate business impact. Findings include detailed risk analysis and actionable remediation steps to help strengthen defenses and reduce exposure.
Third-Party Access Risk Assessment
AppGate’s Third-Party Access Risk Assessment helps identify and secure every external connection to your business. Our Cyber Advisory Services team simulates vendor access using the same credentials, tools, and permissions as real partners to uncover vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and gaps in access controls. Each engagement reveals hidden risks, data exposures, and operational weaknesses created by third-party connections. Findings include evidence-based insights and remediation guidance to reduce your attack surface, meet compliance requirements, and strengthen oversight of vendor and contractor access.
Continuity of Operations: Disruptive Attack Simulation
AppGate’s Continuity of Operations: Disruptive Attack Simulation service tests your organization’s ability to maintain mission-critical operations during cyber, technical, or environmental disruptions. Our Cyber Advisory Services team develops and launches custom attack scenarios to evaluate the effectiveness of your existing defenses and continuity strategies. Each simulation identifies weaknesses in resilience planning, single points of failure, and opportunities to strengthen business continuity. Findings include detailed analysis and actionable recommendations to enhance preparedness, minimize downtime, and protect your organization from revenue loss and reputational harm.
