Astra's Complete API Pentesting Platform

Types of attacks we simulate

Our red team service provides comprehensive adversary simulation, testing your defenses against sophisticated real-world attack scenarios

Advanced Web Application Exploits
Simulates sophisticated attacks such as chained SQL injections, advanced XSS, server-side template injections, and logic bypasses that evade standard defenses.
API & Microservices Attacks
Tests for complex API abuse, broken object-level authorization, chained API vulnerabilities, and sensitive data exposure in REST, GraphQL, and microservices architectures.
Cloud & Infrastructure Compromise
Emulates attacks on misconfigured cloud services, privilege escalation, lateral movement, exposed secrets, and insecure deployment pipelines across AWS, Azure, and GCP.
Network & External Threat Simulation
Performs advanced reconnaissance, exploits open services, weak protocols, and lateral pathways to simulate realistic external breach scenarios.
Red-Team Logic & Workflow Attacks
Replicates real attacker behavior to exploit business logic, authorization gaps, and chained workflow vulnerabilities for high-impact risks.
Persistent & Stealth Threats
Simulates APT-style (Advanced Persistent Threat) techniques, including covert footholds, lateral persistence, and data exfiltration without triggering defenses.
What you gain with our red team services
Stress-test your defenses against real-world attack scenarios.
Detect and prioritize critical, hidden risks others miss.
Strengthen your Blue Team’s detection and response skills.
Validate compliance readiness with evidence-based reporting.
Get executive clarity with CXO-friendly reports and actionable insights.

Astra's 7-Step Pentest Process

How our red team services work

From reconnaissance to post-exploitation analysis, Astra’s red team methodology uncovers weaknesses that mimic real-world threats. Our 6-step process replicates advanced adversary behavior with precision.

Reconnaissance and scoping

  • Define the engagement scope and objectives through collaborative planning and intelligence gathering.
Setting up target for scan
Scheduling continuous scan for security

Threat modeling & attack planning

  • Develop custom attack strategies and TTPs based on your unique threat landscape and critical assets.

Exploitation & initial access

  • Execute controlled attacks to breach your defenses, targeting apps, networks, and social vectors.
Starting a Full Automated App Scan
Checking reported Vulnerabilities

Lateral movement and persistence

  • Simulate an advanced attacker by moving deeper into your environment and establishing a persistent foothold.

Reporting and executive briefing

  • Receive a detailed breakdown of findings with both technical and executive-level risk analysis.
Getting full vulnerability report on your slack or creating ticket on JIRA.
% of Vulnerabilities resolved and available Re-scans

Remediation & verification

  • Get actionable guidance to fix flaws, followed by a rescan to verify all vulnerabilities are resolved.

Why choose Astra?

Every pentest our security engineers perform feeds back into our DAST vulnerability scanner.
That means we're not just relying on known CVEs - we're continuously learning
from real-world hacks performed during pentests.

Precision Results

  • Noise-filtered vulnerabilities with intelligent detection logic
  • False positives? Get them vetted by our experts
  • Mark false positives to skip them in future scans
  • Additional white-glove vulnerability vetting by expert security engineers

Compliance-First Approach

  • Audit-ready reports aligned with ISO, PCI, SOC 2, HIPAA, GDPR, OWASP, NIST, and more.
  • Expert support to simplify assessments and pass audits faster.

"The most impressive part is the certificate they give you. It shows that you actually pentest and don't just say that you do. Customers can be a tad more trusting in your security because it's not just lip service. The dashboard can be a little slow sometimes, but this "

Let’s start

What are red team services, and how do they differ from a penetration test?

Red team services simulate real-world attacks to test an organization’s overall defenses and response, while a penetration test focuses on identifying technical vulnerabilities within a defined scope and providing remediation steps.

How long does a Red team exercise typically take, and how often should it be conducted?

A Red team exercise usually lasts several weeks to months, depending on scope and complexity. For optimal resilience, organizations should conduct Red team exercises at least annually or as threat landscapes evolve.

How are findings reported, and how does remediation work after a Red team exercise?

Findings are compiled in detailed reports with exploit paths, risk ratings, and executive summaries. Remediation involves prioritizing fixes, implementing security controls, and retesting to validate vulnerability mitigation.

What are the limitations of red team services, and why are follow-up measures important?

Red teaming may miss full coverage of all systems and might not satisfy compliance, since it targets stealthy, high-value goals. Follow-up measures like penetration testing and remediation are important to address gaps and ensure comprehensive security.
