Framework alignment
Engagements are structured around TIBER-EU principles: scope, intelligence, testing, detection and learning.

TIBER-alignedintelligence-ledtestingforregulatedorganisations
Threat Intelligence-Based Ethical Red Teaming structured to meet financial sector requirements, from scoping through white-cell governance and debrief.
TIBER-EU and its national variants set a high bar for intelligence-led red teaming in the financial sector. The framework demands rigorous threat intelligence, controlled attack simulation, independent white-cell governance and a structured debrief — all mapped to realistic actors targeting your organisation.
We deliver TIBER-aligned engagements end to end, working with your threat intelligence provider or bringing our own. From scoping and target selection through execution, detection review and remediation, we ensure the engagement meets framework expectations and produces genuine security improvement.
Capabilities

FAQs
Common questions
Is this only for banks?
TIBER originated in financial services but the approach suits any regulated organisation that needs intelligence-led, governed red teaming.

You can use your existing provider or we can supply intelligence as part of the engagement.
How long does a TIBER engagement take?
Typically three to six months including scoping, intelligence, testing and debrief, depending on organisational size and complexity.
