Breach & Attack
Simulation
Check whether your security controls detect and block selected attack techniques. Use repeatable exercises to measure improvements.
Overview
Continuously prove your defences work.
Unlike a once-a-year test, BAS gives you continuous assurance and catches drift — when a config change, update, or new gap quietly weakens your defences — all mapped to MITRE ATT&CK for clear coverage reporting.
Coverage

FAQ
Breach & attack simulation FAQ
Scope, cost, and what happens next.
How much does breach and attack simulation cost?
It is scoped to your environment, the controls in scope, and whether you want a one-off assessment or a continuous programme. Contact us for a tailored figure.
What is breach and attack simulation?
The continuous, automated and safe execution of real attacker techniques against your controls to validate that prevention and detection work — not a vulnerability scan or a one-off pentest.
How is BAS different from penetration testing?
A penetration test is a point-in-time, human-led assessment. BAS runs continuously and automatically, focusing on validating and measuring your security controls over time.
Is it safe to run in production?
Yes — simulations are designed to be safe and non-destructive, and are scoped and scheduled with you.
Does it map to MITRE ATT&CK?
Yes — results are mapped to ATT&CK techniques, giving you a clear, measurable coverage and gap picture.
Will it test our EDR and email security?
Yes — endpoint/EDR, email and web gateways, network controls, and exfiltration paths are all validated.
More questions about this service
Can this be a continuous service?
Yes — ongoing BAS with trend reporting catches drift and proves your defences keep working as your environment changes.
What do we receive?
A coverage report by ATT&CK technique, what was blocked vs detected vs missed, and prioritised actions to close the gaps.
