Offensive Security

Adversary simulation, not compliance theatre.

Find it in an exercise, not a breach.

The only credible way to know whether your defences work is to have them attacked — under controlled conditions, by operators who think, tool and pivot like real adversaries. Solvin runs adversary-emulation and penetration testing programmes that produce actionable, prioritised remediation — not compliance PDFs.

MITRE ATT&CK

Full-chain reporting on every engagement

OSCP+

Minimum certification for operators

Purple

Every red-team ends with detection uplift

/ Capabilities

What's in scope.

Red Team & Adversary Emulation

Objective-based engagements aligned to MITRE ATT&CK, emulating threat actors relevant to your industry — with full kill-chain reporting.

Application Penetration Testing

Web, mobile, API, thick-client and desktop apps — grey-box and white-box, aligned to OWASP ASVS L2/L3 and MASVS.

Cloud Security Assessment

AWS, Azure and GCP configuration review, IAM/privilege escalation paths, Kubernetes runtime testing and CI/CD pipeline abuse.

Network & Active Directory

Internal and external network pentests, AD forest and Entra tenant review, tiered admin model gaps, and Kerberos abuse chains.

Social Engineering

Targeted phishing, vishing, MFA-fatigue and OSINT-driven pretexting — with awareness debriefs that turn failures into training moments.

Purple Team Exercises

Live-fire collaboration with your defenders — running ATT&CK techniques while your SOC watches, tunes and validates detections in real time.

How our engagements run

Every offensive engagement starts with a written rules-of-engagement — scope, out-of-bounds systems, stop-signals, evidence handling, and legal authorisations. From there our operators work in stealth, log every action for reproducibility, and debrief with your team on a weekly cadence.

Certified operators only — OSCP, OSCE, OSEP, CRTO, CRTP
Custom C2 and tooling — we do not run public frameworks unmodified
MITRE ATT&CK mapping for every finding, with detection-engineering guidance
Executive-ready narrative, plus a technical report engineers will actually read

Where offensive value shows up

Our clients use offensive engagements to validate M&A due diligence, evidence board-level risk statements, prove control effectiveness to regulators, and — most usefully — turn every finding into a permanent detection in the SOC.

Cloud (AWS + Azure) configuration review, API pentest and social-engineering assessment.

Outcomes

Closed 100% of critical cloud findings within 21 days
API abuse simulation prevented estimated ₹6 Cr fraud exposure
Employee phishing failure rate down from 18% to 4% post-programme

Common questions.

Will you test production?

Yes, under written authorisation and with clearly defined stop-signals. Most red-team engagements target production because staging never reflects the real attack surface.

Do you help fix what you find?

Fixing is your team's or your development partner's job — but our reports include remediation guidance ranked by exploitability and effort. Retesting is included on every engagement.

Can you run a continuous / attack-surface programme?

Yes. Beyond point-in-time pentests we offer continuous adversary simulation and external attack-surface management with quarterly campaigns and monthly delta reporting.
