NEMESIS
Breach and Attack Simulation
Simulate. Automate. Validate.
A product of Persistent Security Industries
Nemesis Breach and Attack Simulation takes a proactive approach to cybersecurity by simulating real-world cyberattacks in a controlled environment. Nemesis BAS exposes the security issues that really matter.
​
Do your security controls hold up when it matters most?
In today’s digital landscape, it's not a matter of if, but when your organization will face a cyber threat. Why is it so difficult to gauge the effectiveness of your security controls ?
According to our clients:
"Modern IT environments are very complex, with numerous tools and layers of defenses that may not always integrate well or work as you intended."
PUT YOUR FOCUS WHERE IT MATTERS
Nemesis Breach and Attack Simulation
Even when the IT Security team is overwhelmed by the amount of security issues, Nemesis helps to prioritize the fixes that really matter and have the highest probability of being exploited.
Simulate.
Simulate real-world cyber threats in a controlled environment. Test your existing defenses and identify gaps in your security posture.
Automate.
Automate your simulation schedule by using the Nemesis scheduler and track progressions by comparing different simulations.
Validate.
Validate whether your current security controls are truly effective in mitigating threats and vulnerabilities.
Nemesis Breach and Attack Simulation Explained
Our virtual sparring partner for your cyber defenses
Atomics
Atomics are the fundamental building blocks of our platform. Derived from the MITRE ATT&CK framework, the atomics cover the range of techniques adversaries may employ during a breach attempt. Nemesis covers a wide range of techniques allowing you to comprehensively assess your security posture by simulating various attack vectors.
Scenarios
Scenarios are a combination of different atomics and serve as blueprints for simulated cyberattacks. Nemesis provides pre-defined scenarios, including common attack tactics used by well-known hacker collectives, but also allows you to create your own scenario.
Assessments
The assessment can be seen as the final step in the process and entails the dynamic execution of your selected scenarios on a chosen agent within your environment. By running assessments, you gain actionable insights into your security posture, helping you proactively identify and address weaknesses before malicious actors can exploit them.
Integrated Frameworks
MITRE ATT&CK
Our platform integrates the MITRE ATT&CK open-source framework which stands as a globally recognized and authoritative resource in the field of cybersecurity. This integration allows you to harness the full power of ATT&CK's extensive knowledge base of adversary tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs).

ART Services
ADVANCED RED TEAM SERVICES
Red teamings are goal oriented and follow a dynamic attack path based on the organization’s profile. Our team combines public and private state-of-the-art tooling and techniques to maximise the effectiveness.
​
Red Team engagements are carried out without the Blue Team being aware, to make the conditions of the attack as realistic as possible.
If the red team’s activity is detected, the Blue Team should respond by following the organisation’s internal processes.
WHY RED TEAMING?
Unlike traditional pentesting where components are tested independently for security vulnerabilities, often out of context, Red Teaming offers an opportunity to provide answers to real security concerns.
​
For a Red Team assessment, PSI works together with the project stakeholders to set the objectives that are suitable for your enterprise, and starts planning its attack scenarios.
Once the scenarios are approved, the red team will commence the exercise following the below kill-chain, tailored to the specific scenarios.
DELIVERABLES
The report will include:
Executive summary describing your business risk
Attack narrative demonstrating step-by-step how objectives were achieved
Details of your technical deficiencies and means of addressing themTimeline of activities to correlate with your Blue Team’s event log
​
A post-assessment briefing will take place with an opportunity to have an open discussion between the Red Team and your Blue Team.
