SIRI Attack | Penetration Testing & Red Teaming — SIRI Security LLC
Solutions › SIRI Attack

SIRI Attack — see your organisation the way an attacker actually would.

A checklist scan tells you what's patched. It doesn't tell you what's exploitable. SIRI Attack runs penetration testing, red teaming and continuous validation the way real adversaries operate — across network, web, API, cloud, mobile and people.

Shifting model
PTaaS
Over 70% of organisations are moving from annual penetration tests to continuous, PTaaS-style testing as release cycles now outpace a once-a-year assessment window.
Rising spend
56%+
More than half of organisations increased red-team investment as boards ask not just “are we compliant” but “could we actually be breached.”
Human element
62%
62% of breaches involve the human element — phishing, credential theft, social engineering or error — leaving the largest attack vector untested by technical scanning alone.
Supply chain
48%
48% of breaches involve suppliers, vendors or trusted third parties — attack-surface assessment increasingly has to extend past an organisation's own infrastructure.
Standardising
MITRE ATT&CK
MITRE ATT&CK has become the common language for scoping and reporting offensive engagements, making findings comparable across vendors and over time.

Compliance testing and real testing are not the same thing

A clean pentest report and an unexploitable environment are two different claims.

Most penetration tests are scoped to satisfy an auditor, not to find what a determined attacker would. SIRI Attack is built the other way around: engineers who test systems the way they're actually attacked, reporting on exploitable paths to business impact — not a list of CVEs sorted by CVSS score.

Automated scanning finds known vulnerabilities in isolation. A real intrusion rarely uses one vulnerability — it chains a handful of individually low-severity weaknesses into a path from an exposed login page to a domain administrator account, or from a forgotten staging server to a production database. That chaining is what a scanner cannot do and a report full of unranked findings does not communicate.

$4.44M — the global average cost of a data breach
The gap between what a breach costs and what continuous offensive testing costs is the argument for treating this as an operating discipline, not an annual exercise. (2026 industry breach-cost benchmarks.)

SIRI Attack's engineers hold current offensive-security certifications and report findings the way they were found: as a chain of exploitable steps to an outcome a board would recognise, mapped to MITRE ATT&CK and the OWASP Top 10. Where a finding is severe enough to warrant it, testing escalates directly into SIRI MDR (to check whether it would have been detected) and SIRI Response (if it already has been exploited).

What organisations get wrong

Four assumptions that leave real exposure untested

Most testing gaps aren't about missing tools — they're about what the testing was actually scoped to find.

01 — SCOPE

“We passed our last pentest”

A clean report from a narrowly scoped test says nothing about what sits outside that scope — most real intrusions start somewhere the test never touched.

02 — FREQUENCY

“We test once a year”

Annual testing checks a single point in time; infrastructure, code and cloud configuration change continuously in between, and so does what's exploitable.

03 — DEPTH

“Vulnerability scanning is basically a pentest”

Automated scanning finds known vulnerabilities; it doesn't chain weaknesses together the way a human attacker does to reach real business impact.

04 — PEOPLE

“Our technical controls are strong, so we're covered”

62% of breaches involve the human element — testing that never touches phishing or social engineering leaves the largest single vector unmeasured.

Scoped to your environment, reported as exploitable chains, and mapped to MITRE ATT&CK and OWASP throughout.

PENETRATION TESTING

Network, Web & Infrastructure

Network, web application and infrastructure penetration testing against real exploitation paths, not just known-CVE matching.

  • Business-logic & OWASP Top 10 coverage
  • Exploitation, not just detection
See SIRI Exposure →
RED TEAMING

Full-Scope Adversary Simulation

Physical, digital and human-vector adversary simulation against a defined objective, run the way a real campaign would be.

  • Objective-based, not checklist-based
  • Physical, digital & human vectors
  • Mapped to MITRE ATT&CK
See SIRI MDR →
APPLICATION SECURITY

Web, API & Mobile Security

Application and API-layer testing against the OWASP Top 10 and business-logic flaws automated scanners miss, plus iOS and Android assessment.

  • OWASP Top 10 & business logic
  • REST/GraphQL API testing
  • iOS & Android app assessment
See SIRI AI Security →
CLOUD SECURITY

AWS, Azure & GCP

Configuration and attack-path assessment across cloud environments, where the majority of current exploitation actually happens.

  • IAM & privilege-escalation paths
  • Misconfiguration assessment
  • Multi-cloud & hybrid coverage
See SIRI Exposure →
SOCIAL ENGINEERING

Phishing, Vishing & Pretexting

Simulated phishing, vishing and pretexting campaigns that test the human element directly, with awareness follow-through.

  • Phishing & vishing simulation
  • Physical pretexting
  • Awareness debrief & metrics
See SIRI Resilience →
ATTACK SURFACE ASSESSMENT

Mapping What's Actually Exposed

Mapping and prioritising every externally exposed asset before testing begins, so effort goes where real risk sits.

  • External asset discovery
  • Business-impact prioritisation
  • Feeds directly into SIRI Exposure

Evidence, not guesswork

No testing vs. annual compliance scan vs. SIRI Attack — what actually differs

Compliance alignment

Standards & frameworks we align to

Our methodology is built around publicly recognised frameworks — not a proprietary checklist. Where a specific certification or attestation is completed and verified, it will be named here explicitly.

ISO/IEC 27001:2022 SOC 2 (AICPA TSC) NIST CSF 2.0 MITRE ATT&CK OWASP Top 10 OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications NIST AI RMF ISO/IEC 42001 ISO 22301 CERT-In Directions 2022

Framework references reflect publicly available versions as of publication and describe the standards our methodology is aligned to; they are not a claim of certification, attestation, or audit completion unless stated explicitly elsewhere on this site.

Why SIRI for offensive security specifically

Testing built to find what matters, not to fill a report template

The team that finds the exploitable path is the same team that can tell you whether it would have been detected.

01

Offensive by design

Every engagement starts from how a system can actually be compromised, not from a compliance checklist worked backwards.

02

Technical depth

Findings come from engineers who do the testing directly, not account managers relaying a subcontractor's report three steps removed.

03

Mapped to real frameworks

Results are reported against MITRE ATT&CK and the OWASP Top 10, so findings are comparable across engagements and over time.

04

From discovery to response

Attack-surface discovery, offensive testing, detection and incident response run as one connected capability through SIRI Exposure, SIRI MDR and SIRI Response — not separate vendors handed off between.

Frequently asked

SIRI Attack, answered directly

Is this a vulnerability scan or a real penetration test?

A real penetration test. Automated scanning is one input, not the deliverable — SIRI Attack's engineers manually exploit and chain findings the way an actual attacker would, and report on what's exploitable, not just what's unpatched.

Do you test production environments?

This is scoped with you directly. Many engagements test production with agreed safeguards; where the risk of disruption is too high, testing runs against a representative staging environment instead.

How is red teaming different from penetration testing?

A penetration test is scoped to find as many exploitable issues as possible within a defined boundary. A red-team engagement is scoped to a specific objective — such as reaching a sensitive data store — without your defensive team knowing in advance, testing detection and response as much as the initial compromise.

What happens if you find something critical mid-engagement?

Critical findings with active real-world risk are escalated to you immediately, not held for the final report. Where relevant, this can hand off directly into SIRI Response if there's evidence the issue has already been exploited.

Can results be used as evidence for ISO 27001 or SOC 2?

Yes. Reports are structured to serve as audit evidence for control testing under ISO/IEC 27001:2022 and SOC 2 (AICPA Trust Services Criteria), in addition to standing on their own as a technical record.
