Why this module exists. Adversary emulation — running a specific real-world threat actor’s TTPs against your environment — is the most realistic test of your security posture. This module covers how to translate threat-intel reports into actionable red-team engagements.

Why emulate vs. just pentest

Generic pentests find generic findings. Adversary emulation tests whether you can withstand the specific groups that target your industry / geography:

  • APT29 / Cozy Bear for government / defence.
  • FIN7 / FIN8 for retail / hospitality.
  • APT41 for telecom and travel.
  • Specific groups targeting Indian financial sector.
