Cybersecurity
services
company
ThreatSpike
has
announced
the
launch
of
ThreatSpike
Red,
the
industry’s
first
unlimited
offensive
cybersecurity
service.
ThreatSpike
Red
helps
organisations
of
all
sizes
to
close
the
cybersecurity
gap
by
providing
continuous
unlimited
testing
and
scanning
of
applications
and
websites
to
identify
vulnerabilities.
The
new
managed
service
is
the
first
of
its
kind
to
be
offered
on
an
affordable
fixed-price
basis,
giving
customers
full
visibility
over
cost,
and
making
advanced
offensive
cybersecurity
accessible
to
more
organisations
large
and
small.
Compared
to
conventional
pentesting
conducted
once
or
twice
per
year,
ThreatSpike
Red
enables
customers
to
undertake
continuous
cybersecurity
evaluation,
achieving
greater
depth
through
red
team
exercises
that
live-test
defences.
This
helps
companies
take
control
of
their
cybersecurity
posture,
monitor
performance,
and
respond
to
emerging
threats
to
protect
their
businesses
against
cyberattacks
and
build
customer
trust.
“In
today’s
challenging
digital
environment
offensive
cybersecurity
shouldn’t
be
just
a
point-in-time
activity,
but
the
high
cost
of
traditional
pentesting
services
means
most
organisations
can
only
afford
to
test
infrequently,
if
at
all,”
says
Adam
Blake,
CEO
and
co-founder
of
ThreatSpike.
“This
creates
a
high-risk
cybersecurity
gap
where
adversaries
have
a
large
window
of
opportunity
to
attack
quickly.
The
results
can
be
devastating,
from
loss
of
revenue
and
reputation
to
compliance
failures
and
enterprise
collapse,”
he
says.
“ThreatSpike
Red
disrupts
the
traditional
pentesting
and
cybersecurity
services
market
by
democratising
access
to
offensive
cybersecurity
services
through
our
transparent,
fixed-price
service.
It
means
not
only
that
more
organisations
can
benefit
from
offensive
cybersecurity,
but
also
that
they
can
protect
their
business
on
a
continuous
basis.
“In
a
difficult
economic
climate,
our
solution
resolves
the
tension
between
security
and
cost
at
a
time
when
managing
both
is
critical
to
business
success.”
ThreatSpike
Red
is
offered
on
a
per-employee
pricing
basis
for
SMBs,
and
enterprise
pricing
is
available
on
request.
The
service
includes
initial
reconnaissance,
vulnerability
scanning,
security
assessment
and
reporting,
together
with
unlimited
red
team
attack
exercises
and
penetration
tests
to
stress-test
systems
and
determine
employee
cyberthreat
awareness.
ThreatSpike
Red
is
delivered
by
ThreatSpike’s
highly
experienced
team
of
security
specialists
using
a
combination
of
manual
and
automated
approaches.
ThreatSpike
Red
exceeds
the
requirements
of
NCSC
Cyber
Essentials
certification,
ensuring
clients
can
demonstrate
a
robust
approach
to
cybersecurity
that
gives
customers
confidence.
“In
our
analysis
of
our
work
with
hundreds
of
organisations,
we’ve
established
that
70%
of
employees
won’t
report
receiving
a
suspicious
email
to
their
security
team,”
says
Blake.
“If
a
hacker
gains
access
to
a
single
machine
in
a
company,
there
is
a
90%
chance
it
will
result
in
a
significant
data
breach,
and
the
average
company
can
be
hacked
and
ransomed
within
a
single
day.
“On
top
of
this,
we
find
that
companies
are
ill-prepared
to
respond
to
new
threats
and
vulnerabilities,
meaning
they
can
be
hacked
before
they
even
knew
there
was
a
risk.
That’s
why
continuous
offensive
cybersecurity
is
so
critical
–
it
closes
the
gap
and
shrinks
the
window
of
opportunity
for
attackers,”
he
says.
“By
making
offensive
cybersecurity
accessible
to
a
larger
group
of
organisations,
ThreatSpike
aims
to
help
raise
the
level
of
cybersecurity
performance
across
the
board,
limiting
attacker
opportunity
and
ensuring
clients
protect
their
customers,
reputation,
and
revenues.”
