Email Phishing
We craft custom phishing campaigns tailored to your organization’s unique profile, ensuring maximum effectiveness and relevance. Our targeted approach allows us to focus on specific high-risk roles or conduct company-wide assessments, providing comprehensive insights into your cybersecurity awareness.
Physical Social Engineering
We’re experts at talking our way in, tailgating, and even circumventing digital locks to gain access to your network.
Telephone Social Engineering
Phones are increasingly being used to breach companies, and we will utilize similar tactics to assess the effectiveness of your security training.
Vulnerability Exploitation
Our red team uses advanced techniques to find and exploit system vulnerabilities with tools like Nmap and Metasploit. Leveraging our collective expertise, the Raxis Red Team consistently outperforms industry rivals, delivering superior results. Our reputation for excellence has led clients to engage us when other security firms fall short, solidifying our position as the go-to experts for challenging cybersecurity assessments.
Pivoting and Lateral Movement
Once we gain a foothold, we pivot laterally through your network using tools like Mimikatz and PAExec to expand reach and access sensitive materials.
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.
Harvesting Credentials
Upon gaining access, we’ll securely extract and analyze critical authentication data, including password hashes and digital certificates. This comprehensive approach allows us to identify potential vulnerabilities in your authentication mechanisms and provide targeted recommendations to enhance your overall security posture.
Password Hash Cracking
Leveraging our GPU-accelerated password recovery system running Hashcat, we’ll employ substantial dictionaries and advanced rules to crack as many hashed credentials as we can.
Password Analysis
The Raxis Red Team conducts a comprehensive analysis of your cracked passwords, delivering detailed insights into password strength and complexity. We provide actionable recommendations to enhance your overall password security posture, helping you implement better defenses against potential threats.
Search For The Goods
The Raxis Red team will comprehensively scan file shares, databases, and even local workstations to pinpoint the most critical information. This highlights the potential risk of a cyber attack, helping you justify budget allocation for security measures.
Exfiltrate Data
Once we identify the most vital components, we will demonstrate that we can extract data without physically removing anything from your network. This enhances the evidence of cybersecurity risk.
Test Detection and Response
Our simulated data exfiltration exercise tests your existing security controls, providing valuable insights to enhance your incident response capabilities. This process allows us to identify potential gaps in your defenses and offer targeted recommendations for strengthening your overall security posture against real-world threats.

Raxis Hack Stories
Our stories are based on real events encountered by Raxis engineers; however, some details have been altered or omitted to protect our customers’ identities.
In a daring demonstration of cybersecurity vulnerabilities, the Raxis Red Team orchestrated a multi-stage attack that exposed critical weaknesses in a major retailer’s digital infrastructure. The operation began with our team targeting the company’s wireless network using the powerful Aircrack-ng suite. This versatile toolkit allowed us to capture the network’s encryption key during a routine handshake process and swiftly crack it using Hashcat’s advanced capabilities.
With network access secured, we obtained local system access and then pivoted to internal systems using CrackMapExec, a potent post-exploitation tool. We discovered a system protected by nothing more than a default password—a digital equivalent of leaving the keys in the ignition. This oversight became our gateway, allowing us to gain local administrator privileges. Using CrackMapExec’s –sam option, we dumped the local SAM hashes, further expanding our access.
Like master locksmiths, we moved from system to system, leveraging our newly acquired local admin rights. Eventually, we obtained a prized domain administrator hash. Overnight, our dedicated team worked tirelessly, using Raxis’ Hashcat multi-GPU system to break this high-value credential. Returning the next day, we validated our newfound domain administrative access, cementing our control over the retailer’s entire digital domain.
The crown jewel of our operation was the discovery of the application and database containing store-branded gift cards and PINs, along with the ability to generate new ones at will. This find not only highlighted the potential for financial exploitation but also underscored the critical importance of robust, multi-layered cybersecurity measures in today’s retail landscape.
