What is Red Teaming?
Red teaming is a highly technical, offensive security exercise intended to test the limits of an organization’s incident response capabilities at the deepest level imaginable.
Since Red Teaming is both objective-oriented and dependent on examining and reporting on both digital and non-digital components of an entire ecosystem, it’s a job that only the industry’s most highly skilled security experts can do and is time-consuming by nature.
What is RTaaS?
Coined by Gartner Research, RTaaS is a strategic investment that companies can make to augment their offensive security strategy with red teaming exercises.
These red team exercises take the form of traditional red team vs. blue team exercises – but instead of the red team being staffed with internal staff, the red team is augmented by the RTaaS provider.
Red Team and Pen Testing Services with One Trusted Provider
The threat landscape is constantly evolving - and seconds can mean the difference between a full-on breach and a contained security event. System-focused penetration testing for security and compliance is critical – but there comes a time when testing at only one point-in-time isn’t enough. A continuous, repeatable strategy is needed to ensure that risks are managed, and preventable breaches are stopped before they occur.
Your security risk management strategy can now include a testing method that helps you know exactly where your weaknesses are so you can fully enable cyber resilience across your organization and teams.
RTaaS helps you test your entire ecosystem inside and out to ensure that you'll never have to determine your weaknesses alone and will always have a deep understanding of your attack surface.

Red Teaming from Leaders Who Have Been in Your Shoes
BreachLock’s very existence stems from the challenges our founder and CEO, Seemant Sehgal, faced during his 18+ years of cybersecurity experience and his time as Head of Global Red Teaming at one of the world’s largest banks. Holding a multi-million-dollar cybersecurity budget exposed him to the shortcomings of the Red Teaming and penetration testing solutions that were available at the time and ignited his passion to solve the problems he was experiencing with a solution of his own.
To summarize the pitfalls that Sehgal took note of as a buyer in an oversaturated market, he realized that there were four core problems at the root of every solution. They lacked accuracy, agility, cost-effectiveness and scalability.
His peers were spending millions on Red Teaming and pentesting engagements every year, but they were still being hacked. Sehgal noticed a handful of inconsistencies between the simulated attacks he paid for and real-world attacks - one being that when a real-world attack takes place, real cybercriminals aren’t handed a visitor badge and a coffee at the office before exploiting your systems. Something had to change, and he’s dedicated his life’s work to creating a solution that solves those four challenges so that you don’t have to, and more importantly, making cyberspace safe.

How Red Teaming as a Service Works
Red Teaming as a Service gives you the full view that your adversaries have of security environment – including both known and unknown security vulnerabilities. Whereas pentesting is a single assessment to pen test one system, Red Teaming tests full-stack systems across an ecosystem - including people, processes, and technologies.
