Plan with Purpose. Execute with Impact.
Before you launch your next red team engagement, make sure your organization is truly prepared.
The Red Team Readiness Guide is a question-driven planning framework designed to help security program leaders, Red Team managers, and enterprise defenders align stakeholders, define objectives, and set clear parameters for high-value red team operations.
This practical guide helps you:
- Understand what red teaming really tests and why it’s uniquely valuable
- Learn how an attacker’s narrative reveals hidden gaps in your defenses
- Avoid planning mistakes that lead to misaligned or low-impact tests
- Clarify scope, stakeholder goals, and operational readiness
- Use the included worksheet to align your team before engaging a provider or running in-house simulations
Whether you’re evaluating a Red Team engagement for the first time or looking to strengthen your existing program, this guide will help you ask the right questions and get the most from your investment.
