Dubai, UAE: Intertec Systems, a regional Digital & Technology company recently announced that they have partnered with ‘FireCompass’ - a leader in Autonomous Red Teaming & External Attack Surface Management.

Naresh Kothari, President and MD, Intertec Systems on this occasion said, “We are happy to partner with Firecompass and continue to strengthen our cybersecurity portfolio. Our customers trust and rely on Intertec to help them see, predict and reduce cyber risk which is why we’ve partnered with FireCompass. FireCompass has grown pretty fast and is known for niche technologies like “Continuous Recon and Testing”. Most organizations struggle with identifying internet exposed infrastructure risks leaving security teams unable to find and fix flaws before they become business-impacting issues.”

Organizations typically conduct security testing only a few times a year on a partial list of online assets, excluding shadow IT unknown to security teams. Meanwhile, hackers are always attempting attacks on the entirety of their assets.

Bikash Barai, Co-Founder, FireCompass said, “At FireCompass, our vision is to make Autonomous Red Teaming available to all so that organizations can discover and test all their assets at all times – just like real attackers do.”

FireCompass platform automatically discovers an organization’s digital attack surface and launches multi-stage safe attacks, mimicking a real attacker, to help identify breach and attack paths that are otherwise missed out by conventional tools. FireCompass Attack Platform also consists of playbooks that will help to emulate specific adversary TTP to test for potential risks.

Business Impact As Described by Gartner:

  • Discover unknown assets that belong to the organization (like IPs, Domains, Applications, Cloud services, 3rd party SaaS services) and internet-exposed infrastructure vulnerabilities
  • More frequent testing of infrastructure and security defenses to mitigate security weaknesses & gaps with a shorter time to execute testing (scans) and not reliant on the testing firm.
  • Take advantage of Red teaming & Penetration testing capabilities without hiring expensive experts
