Remote Reconnaissance
- Gather intelligence from public records, online resources, social media, and other open-source channels.
- Identify personal and operational details that could be leveraged for physical or social engineering attacks.
Black Team Simulation
Black Team Simulation
Even the best executive protection teams can miss subtle gaps that a determined adversary could exploit. Our Black Team Simulation is a discreet, high-fidelity assessment designed to reveal critical weaknesses in an executive's Protective Security Detail (PSD) and overall security posture. Unlike traditional red team tests focused solely on digital compromise, Black Team Simulations blend covert physical surveillance, threat profiling, and realistic exploitation techniques to replicate the tactics of advanced threat actors.
What We Do
The Black Team Simulation is executed over a multi-month period to capture the true complexity of real-world adversary campaigns. Our specialists:
On-Site Surveillance & Pattern of Life Analysis
- Conduct covert observation of executive routines, security team operations, and protective measures.
- Map vulnerabilities based on timing, environment, and predictability.
Threat Profiling
- Develop realistic adversary profiles aligned with nation-state tactics, organized crime, insider threats, or targeted violence scenarios.
- Analyze the executive's exposure to influence, extortion, or social engineering.
Exploitation
- Test social engineering tactics, tracking techniques, and potential influence operations to evaluate the resilience of the PSD.
- Assess how successfully an adversary could circumvent protective measures to approach or compromise the principal.

Outcomes & Engagement Details
Upon completion, you receive comprehensive insights and detailed engagement parameters tailored to your specific threat landscape.
- A True Adversary Perspective: A detailed, realistic view of how a sophisticated attacker would target your PSD and the executive
- Actionable Remediation Plans: Specific recommendations to harden protective operations, adjust routines, and close identified security gaps
- Target Profiles: Third-Party Security Details (PSD Teams), Corporate Security Teams, High-net-worth or high-profile individuals with dedicated protective services
- Threat Modeling: Motivated State Actors/Intelligence Agencies, Influence Peddling/Blackmail/Coercion, Disgruntled but Capable Consumers or Hacktivists, Malicious (Ex-) IT or Security Insiders
- Typical Engagement: Comprehensive profiling and analysis of protective details and personal routines, focused surveillance to identify vulnerabilities in physical protection, social engineering and influence testing against the security team, engagements lasting up to 3 months to simulate sustained adversary targeting
- Who Should Engage: Organizations with high-profile executives protected by PSDs, high-net-worth individuals seeking assurance their protective teams are resilient, security directors responsible for corporate protective operations, third-party executive protection agencies seeking independent validation
