Compromise Assessment Service
Bluefire Redteam’s Compromise Assessment service is an in-depth investigation designed to uncover ongoing hidden threats that are overlooked by traditional security assessments.
Trusted by global organisations for top-tier cybersecurity solutions!
What is a Compromise Assessment?
Even if no alerts have been triggered, a Compromise Assessment is a specialised cybersecurity investigation intended to determine whether your systems have already been compromised.
In contrast to conventional scans or audits, a compromise assessment searches for subtle indications of sophisticated attackers’ persistence tactics, data exfiltration, lateral movement, and unauthorised access. It assists organisations in responding to the crucial question,
“Have we already been compromised and we’re just unaware of it?”

Compromise Assessment Vs. Other Security Checks
Compromise Assessment vs. Vulnerability Assessment
Vulnerability Assessment
- Identifies unpatched systems and weaknesses
- Preventative in nature
- Based on known CVEs and system configs
- Does not detect ongoing attacks
Compromise Assessment
- Detects actual signs of active or past breaches
- Investigative in nature
- Based on attacker behavior and threat intel
- Uncovers hidden threats already in your environment
Threat Hunting
- Proactive search for threats (often without cause)
- Continuous or routine activity
- Often limited to endpoints
- No guaranteed report or remediation
Compromise Assessment
- Triggered by suspicious activity or routine risk check
- Time-bound and project-based
- Covers endpoints, cloud, network, SaaS, and more
- Always includes report, evidence, and response advice
Compromise Assessment vs. Threat Hunting
Compromise Assessment vs. Incident Response
Incident Response (IR)
- Triggered after a confirmed breach or attack
- Focuses on containment, eradication, and recovery
- High urgency, crisis mode
- Performed in response to a known incident
Compromise Assessment
- Helps detect if a compromise has already occurred
- Focuses on detection, investigation, and early intervention
- Structured, proactive security measures
- Performed to uncover unknown or stealthy incidents
Traditional SOC Monitoring
- Alert-based, reliant on log rules
- May miss low-and-slow or stealthy threats
- Reactive approach
- High noise, false positives
Compromise Assessment
- Deep-dive analysis and behavioural correlation
- Designed to spot advanced persistent threats (APTs)
- Investigative and forensics-driven
- Focused, accurate findings and root cause analysis
Compromise Assessment vs. Regular SOC Monitoring
Frequently Asked Questions — Compromise Assessment Service
- What is a compromise assessment in cybersecurity?Even if no alerts have been set off, a compromise assessment is a targeted investigation that finds out if an attacker has already obtained unauthorised access to your systems. To find hidden threats or breaches, it uses behavioural analytics, threat intelligence, and forensic analysis.
- How is a compromise assessment different from a vulnerability scan?A compromise assessment looks for indications that your systems have already been compromised, whereas vulnerability scans search for flaws in your systems. Finding actual proof of compromise—rather than merely possible dangers—is the goal.
- When should a business perform a compromise assessment?A compromise assessment should be taken into consideration if:
- You believe your network is experiencing strange activity.
- You’re going through compliance or M&A reviews.
- This is the first time you’ve ever had a thorough breach investigation.
- You want peace of mind because you handle sensitive data.
- How long does a compromise assessment take?The size and complexity of your surroundings determine the timeline. The majority of assessments, including data collection, analysis, and reporting, take one to three weeks. Throughout the onboarding process, we offer a thorough timeline.
- What do I get after the assessment?You will be given:
- A thorough report outlining any indications of compromise
- Potential attackers’ tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs)
- Suggestions for future prevention, remediation, and containment
- Our security experts’ debriefing
- Will this disrupt my business operations?Absolutely not. The goal of our compromise assessment is to be non-intrusive. We employ log analysis methods and forensic tools that won’t interfere with regular business operations or cause your systems to lag.
- How much does a compromise assessment cost?The size of your environment, the quantity of endpoints, and the level of analysis needed all affect how much a compromise assessment costs. Our prices are flexible and customised, ranging from enterprise-scale engagements to reasonably priced packages for SMEs. 👉 Get a free scoping call to find out what works best for your company.
