Developer/DevOps adversary simulation

With valid developer credentials for the infrastructure, we obtain access to existing CI/CD, logging, monitoring, and remote access solutions to build a complete threat model, find access control misconfigurations, and help companies ensure no single person can cause a compromise.

Sometimes, a secured infrastructure can fall to a successful phishing attack or an internal adversary. 

Historically, adversary simulations were conducted with employee-level access to the internal on-premise infrastructure. This approach is not adapted to modern development and application deployment processes, causing important access control vulnerabilities to be overlooked, leading to catastrophic effects, as seen in the recent attack on Twitter. During the attack, a successful compromise of a developer account leads to access to the entire authentication mechanism. To combat attacks like these, we have decided to consider a new service — developer/DevOps adversary simulation. 


The testing process starts with valid developer credentials for the infrastructure and simulates post-exploitation activities after obtaining access to existing CI/CD, logging, monitoring, and remote access solutions as a generic developer to build a complete threat model, find access control misconfigurations, and help companies ensure no single person can cause a compromise.
