- What is Physical Red Teaming?Physical Red Teaming is a controlled simulation of real-world attacks targeting your organization’s physical infrastructure, people, and processes. It tests how well your security controls — from access systems to guards and staff awareness — stand up against skilled adversaries.
- Will you actually try to break into our building?We don’t perform illegal or unsafe actions. Every activity, including physical entry attempts, is pre-approved in a Rules of Engagement (RoE) document. Our goal is to demonstrate risk safely, not cause damage or disruption.
- Is it safe for employees and operations?Yes. Safety and confidentiality are top priorities. Exercises are executed under supervision, with rollback procedures and escalation contacts at all times.
- What types of physical tests do you perform?We perform reconnaissance, surveillance, covert entry, badge cloning, tailgating, insider threat simulation, and social engineering (phishing/vishing). Every engagement is tailored to your facility’s risk profile.
- How long does a physical red team engagement last?Typically between 1 and 6 weeks, depending on scope, number of sites, and complexity. The initial planning and recon phases often take the longest.
- Do you provide evidence like photos or videos?Yes. All findings are supported by timelines, photos, and where permitted, video evidence. Sensitive data is handled securely and shared only with authorized stakeholders.
- How do you maintain confidentiality?All engagements are covered by NDAs. Sensitive information, credentials, and internal details are never reused or disclosed outside your engagement.
- What deliverables do we receive after the engagement?
You’ll receive a comprehensive report containing:
-
Executive summary and key findings
-
Risk ratings and business impact
-
Photo and video evidence
-
Tactical remediation guidance
-
Optional verification test results
You can also access the results through our PentestLive dashboard with a verifiable certificate link.

- Will employees be informed beforehand?It depends on the scope. Most red team engagements are covert, but with pre-approved awareness at the management or compliance level to ensure safety and legality.
- How do you handle detection or confrontation during an exercise?
If detected by guards or employees, operators identify themselves immediately using a Letter of Authorization (LoA) from your management. No situation is allowed to escalate.
- Do you operate internationally?Yes. BlueFire RedTeam operates globally — with primary operations in UAE, India, Africa and North America — and can deliver remote planning + on-ground operator support worldwide.
