Built for Scale, Tested Under Attack: Red Teaming a Digital Broking Platform
How advanced attack simulations revealed gaps, tested controls, and secured financial systems.
The Challenge
A 25+ year old stock brokerage firm transformed into a digital-first platform, offering end-to-end investment services through a single application. The organisation needed to validate whether its security controls could withstand real-world attacks.
Our Approach
CyberNX conducted advanced Red Teaming engagement designed to replicate realistic attack scenarios across applications, infrastructure & user access points. The engagement focused on validating controls and identifying gaps.
Key Results
- Simulated multi-stage attack scenarios across user, system, and infrastructure layers
- Identified exploitable paths leading to sensitive data access
- Validated effectiveness of MFA and SOC detection capabilities
- Strengthened detection, response, and access control mechanisms
Service Highlights
- Spear-phishing and credential compromise simulation
- Lateral movement and privilege escalation testing
- Domain and identity security validation
- Detection and response assessment
- Persistence and evasion testing
- Risk-based remediation roadmap
Client Gains
- Clear visibility into real-world attack paths
- Improved protection of customer and financial data
- Stronger identity and access controls
- Increased confidence in detection and response systems
Client Testimonial
“The Red Teaming engagement gave us a realistic view of our security posture. It helped us validate controls and identify gaps that matter in a live environment.”
