Rules of Engagement
Objective of the exercise, authorized scope, permitted vectors, escalation contacts, and absolute prohibitions. Signed before any action.
Full Offensive Exercise
What your detection truly sees
One objective, no vector limits, your teams unannounced. The exercise closest to a real attack.
- Full scenario: reconnaissance, initial intrusion, lateral movement, exfiltration
- Combined vectors — technical, human, and physical according to the scope
- Measurement of detection time and reaction quality
- Joint debriefing with your teams, in person

Why a Red Team
A pentest finds vulnerabilities. A Red Team finds your blind spots.
The difference isn't the technical level: it's what we measure.
- A pentest answers 'where are my vulnerabilities'. A Red Team answers 'how long can an attacker stay in my systems without anyone noticing'.
- Your teams are not notified: we test real procedures, not the ones in the binder.
- Vectors combine — a phishing attack that opens an access, an access that becomes a service account, an account that reaches the production database.
- The deliverable includes the full timeline: what was done, at what time, and what your tools reported or missed.
Exercise reserved for organizations that already have detection capabilities. Without them, a classic penetration test is more useful and less expensive.
Process
Four phases, written rules
Nothing starts without a signed agreement defining the scope, objectives, and prohibitions.
Reconnaissance
Mapping your exposed surface: infrastructure, applications, employees' public footprint.
Execution
Intrusion and progression towards the objective. Every action is timestamped to be cross-referenced with your logs.
Joint Debrief
Full timeline presented to your teams: what we did, what you saw, and where the gap lies.

We hired White-Hat to conduct a cybersecurity audit of all our servers, and we are very satisfied with the quality of their work. Philippe demonstrated professionalism, responsiveness, and excellent communication skills throughout the entire process. The recommendations provided were clear, relevant, and immediately actionable to strengthen our security. We highly recommend their services.

Excellent experience with White-Hat for a comprehensive security audit of our SaaS platform. The quality of service was truly outstanding: Philippe took the time to understand our application's architecture before starting the tests, which made all the difference to the relevance of the results. The report was detailed, with vulnerabilities categorized by criticality, concrete evidence of exploitability, and recommendations directly applicable by our technical team. The post-delivery follow-up to verify the patches was a real bonus. Professional, rigorous, and attentive: exactly what you need to secure a SaaS product.

We hired White-Hat for a comprehensive audit/advanced penetration test on our website, and it's clearly the direct contact with Philippe that makes all the difference. No salesperson between us, no unnecessary jargon: we communicate directly with someone who understands our challenges and can clearly explain the vulnerabilities found. The report was precise, with concrete evidence and recommendations that we were able to implement quickly. A truly trustworthy relationship; I highly recommend them.

We urgently contacted White Hat following a suspected compromise of several servers. The team was extremely responsive and addressed our request within minutes, with clear communication at every stage. Their vulnerability analysis was conducted very rigorously, resulting in a detailed report and concrete, easy-to-implement recommendations to strengthen our security. The investigation of the compromised servers allowed them to quickly identify the source of the attack and contain the incident without any major disruption to our services. Professional, knowledgeable, and readily available, I highly recommend this provider for any cybersecurity intervention, especially in emergency situations.

Pedagogy: translating technical details into business decisions (prioritization, budget, planning).
Frequently Asked Questions
What we answer before you ask
What's the difference with a penetration test?
A pentest seeks comprehensive vulnerability discovery within a defined scope. A Red Team pursues a specific objective through all authorized means and measures your detection capability. Both are complementary: one rarely starts with a Red Team.
Should my teams be notified?
No, that's the principle. Only a restricted circle — management and an escalation contact — is informed. This is what makes the detection measurement honest.
Is there a risk to production?
Destructive actions are excluded by the agreement. In case of a critical discovery that could escalate, we stop and call you immediately.
How long does an exercise last?
From two to six weeks depending on the scope and objective. It's longer than a pentest because a real attacker takes their time.
