Internet criminal is watching you from darkness.
Organizations invest millions in security tools and teams — but few have ever faced a determined, skilled adversary operating with a real objective. A Raxis red team assessment answers the only question that matters: can your defenses stop a real attack?

Multi-Vector Assault

We chain network exploitation, social engineering, and physical intrusion into a single coordinated operation — the same way nation-state actors and ransomware crews actually operate.

Stealth & Evasion

Our red team specializes in bypassing EDR, evading SOC detection, and maintaining persistence. If your blue team can't find us, we'll show you exactly why.

Measurable Business Impact

We don't stop at "access gained." Every red team engagement demonstrates real consequences — data exfiltration, operational disruption, domain dominance — mapped to business risk your board will understand.

Red Team Attack Vectors

Our red team penetration testers breach perimeter defenses, escalate privileges, and pivot through your environment using the same techniques as advanced persistent threats. We test segmentation, detection, and response at every step — mapped to the MITRE ATT&CK framework.

Phishing, vishing, smishing, pretexting, and in-person impersonation. Raxis deploys sophisticated social engineering campaigns that test employee awareness, policy enforcement, and your team's ability to recognize and report real threats.

Badge cloning, tailgating, lock bypass, and covert device planting. Our red team tests whether your physical security controls match your cybersecurity posture — because a locked-down network means nothing if an attacker can walk through the front door.

We target cloud environments, VPCs, and hybrid infrastructure using the latest exploit techniques — including AI-augmented reconnaissance — to find misconfigurations, exposed credentials, and privilege escalation paths that automated tools miss.

The goal isn't just access — it's demonstrating what an attacker can actually do. Raxis safely simulates data exfiltration and operational disruption to show measurable business impact that drives board-level urgency.

Want your blue team in the loop? Raxis offers purple team engagements that combine red team attack execution with real-time collaboration, helping your SOC improve detection and response during the assessment — not just after.

Privilege Escalation

We will elevate privileges by leveraging methods such as misconfigured permissions, exploiting vulnerabilities in the kernel, and taking advantage of weaknesses in local accounts. Once we gain a foothold, we pivot laterally through your network using tools like Mimikatz and PAExec to expand reach and access sensitive materials.

The Raxis Red Team Methodology

Our Red Team Penetration Testing methodology follows the industry standard MITRE ATT&CK framework.

01

Intelligence Gathering (OSINT & Reconnaissance)

Raxis Red Team security assessments start with extensive open-source intelligence (OSINT) reconnaissance. We examine public records, social media, leaked credentials, and exposed infrastructure to create a blueprint of your organization. This process reveals external vulnerabilities and prepares for the adversary simulation testing.

02

Network Exploitation & Lateral Movement

Our Red Team penetration testers use realistic intrusion techniques to compromise perimeter defenses and pivot inside your network. We perform spear phishing, exploit misconfigurations, escalate privileges, and move laterally to identify weaknesses in segmentation and monitoring. Raxis documents every TTP used so you can see exactly how a determined attacker might operate.

03

Social Engineering Penetration Testing

Raxis specializes in social engineering Red Team exercises, including phishing, vishing (voice phishing), smishing (SMS phishing), and in-person impersonation. These simulations measure employee awareness, test policy enforcement, and evaluate incident response procedures against human-targeted threats.

04

Physical Penetration Testing Services

Cybersecurity is only one layer of your defense. Raxis conducts physical security breach simulations, attempting badge cloning, tailgating, lock bypass, and device planting. These physical penetration testing activities determine whether physical safeguards match your cybersecurity posture.

05

Data Exfiltration & Business Impact Simulation

The ultimate goal of our Red Team penetration testing services is to show measurable business impact. Once objectives are achieved, we simulate the exfiltration of sensitive data or the disruption of critical operations — without causing damage — to clearly illustrate the potential consequences of a real attack.

06

Reporting, Remediation, and Retesting

Raxis concludes every Red Team security assessment with a detailed report mapped to the MITRE ATT&CK framework. You’ll see where defenses held, where they failed, and receive prioritized remediation recommendations. We also offer retesting to verify that all vulnerabilities have been successfully closed.

Human-Led Red Team Engagements

AI Helps Us Uncover What Others Miss

  • Veteran operators drive every engagement, weaving AI-augmented pentesting into phases that benefit from speed or deeper pattern matching. This hybrid approach reduces reconnaissance time and surfaces hidden correlations that generic scans miss.
  • Raxis blends AI augmented exploits, social engineering, and physical intrusion to mimic real attackers, mapping every route to lateral movement, privilege escalation, and data exfiltration.
  • Operating quietly over days or weeks, our human led red team uncovers slow burn attack paths that fast, tool driven tests completely miss.

Results That Drive Real Change

Raxis clients are often stunned to learn how close they were to a breach — even when recent assessments from other well-known cybersecurity firms gave them a “clean” report. In today’s threat landscape, choosing a low-quality vendor isn’t just a bad investment — it’s a serious risk to your business.

A Raxis Red Team penetration testing engagement uncovers hidden vulnerabilities and provides clear, actionable evidence that drives board-level urgency. Our findings help executives prioritize the most critical business risks, allocate resources effectively, and strengthen defenses before a real-world attack can occur.

From Wi-Fi Handshake to Gift Card Vault: A Red Team Engagement

In a daring demonstration of real-world adversary simulation, the Raxis Red Team set out to test the defenses of a major national retailer. Our mission was simple in concept but complex in execution: think like an attacker, move like an attacker, and uncover the true extent of the company’s vulnerabilities. The engagement began quietly. Armed with Aircrack-ng, our penetration testing experts focused on the retailer’s wireless network. During what appeared to be a routine handshake process, we captured the network’s encryption key. Within hours, Raxis’ multi-GPU Hashcat system had cracked it wide open — our first entry point into their digital environment.

Once inside the wireless network, we shifted to internal penetration testing. Using CrackMapExec, we discovered a shockingly simple oversight — a system still protected by its default password. In the world of cybersecurity, that’s the equivalent of leaving the keys in the ignition and the doors unlocked. This single lapse granted us local administrator privileges, which we used to dump SAM hashes and begin moving laterally. One by one, we gained control of additional systems, each step bringing us closer to the ultimate prize: domain administrator access.

Late into the night, our team fed the coveted domain admin hash into Raxis’ powerful Hashcat cracking rig. By morning, we had the credentials in hand. When we returned to the client’s environment, the validation was instant — we now had full control of the entire Active Directory domain, with the same privileges as their own IT administrators.

Deep in the environment, we uncovered something with far more than symbolic value: a custom application and database containing store-branded gift cards and PINs. Even more alarming, we had the capability to generate new cards on demand. For a criminal actor, this would be an open vault. For the retailer, it was a wake-up call about the potential financial and reputational impact of weak security controls.

This Raxis Red Team penetration testing engagement wasn’t a scripted exercise. It was a full-spectrum test designed to mimic a determined adversary, combining wireless penetration testing, privilege escalation, and targeted data access to reveal how a single overlooked control can cascade into total compromise. By blending human-led expertise with AI-driven efficiency, Raxis shows clients exactly how attackers could breach their defenses — and gives them the insight to prevent it from happening in the real world.
