Service Overview
Red Team Engagement
MegaplanIT will test scenarios that mimic current and emerging attack tactics and techniques within the MITRE framework so that you stress your controls and identify gaps in existing monitoring controls including any internal staffing coverage or tool deficiencies. Scenarios tested will represent a post-breach scenario of an attack, allowing you to understand your ultimate exposure and prioritize your resources effectively to fix all misconfigurations and close all identified gaps.

HOW IT WORKS
The PCI DSS Assessment Process
Review Project Scope
Policy & Procedure Collection, Analysis, and Control Validation
PCI DSS Gap Analysis – Pre Assessment
On-Site Validation & Draft Report On Compliance
Quality Assurance Program & Delivery of Final Report
Before submitting any reports to you the QSA must first pass their work through our quality assurance program. This requires a detailed review and validation of all the items to find within the report on compliance and attestation of compliance. If there or any discovered errors or unclear remarks the QA representative will ensure that there is a proper amount of detail that is contained in the documents as governed by the PCI council.
The documents required to pass through the megaplanit:Â
PCI assessment tracking tool (used to gather notes)
Draft report on compliance
attestation of compliance
Internal and external scan results
Internal and external penetration testing results
Phase 6: Review Project Scope
At the beginning of this process, a MegaplanIT QSA will create an assessment folder specifically for your organization, which will be housed on our secure, centralized server. This folder will contain all the documents received during the PCI assessment process.

Key Benefits
Red Team Engagement
Simulated attacks based on real-world adversary behavior provide a comprehensive evaluation of your environment’s ability to withstand current threats and adapt to new, evolving tactics. This ensures your security posture remains resilient against today’s advanced threat landscape—not just legacy attack patterns.
Â
Red team operations expose weaknesses in monitoring, detection, and alerting that may go unnoticed during traditional assessments. By challenging assumed security coverage, organizations gain clarity on where malicious activity can slip through undetected, helping prioritize improvements in threat detection and SOC workflows.
Â
Validate whether systems, applications, and network environments are properly configured to resist intrusion and abuse. This includes confirming access controls, segmentation, encryption, and hardening measures are implemented and functioning as intended—reducing the attack surface and strengthening your security baseline.
Red team engagements demonstrate, in concrete terms, how different threat actors could move through your environment—what they can access, where they might be detected, and how quickly they could be stopped. This helps security teams visualize potential breach paths and assess the effectiveness of incident response processes.
Rather than relying on assumptions about security tools and controls, red teaming offers measurable insight into what’s truly working and what isn’t. You’ll know which controls are detecting, preventing, or delaying attackers—and which are being bypassed entirely—enabling smarter investments and adjustments.
