Definition

Threat-Led Penetration Testing (TLPT), also known as Red Team Testing is a controlled attempt to compromise the cyber resilience of an entity by simulating the tactics, techniques and procedures of real-life threat actors.

TLPT is based on targeted Threat Intelligence and focuses on an entity’s people, processes and technology, with minimal foreknowledge and impact on operations.
