Residential Red Team
& Security Audit
Simulated adversarial attacks on your home and estate — testing physical access controls, smart home systems, Wi-Fi networks, and staff security awareness to expose every vulnerability before a real adversary does.
Request a Private ConsultationAdversarial Simulation
Real-world attack scenarios executed against your residence by experienced red team operators. We think like the adversary — probing physical barriers, digital networks, and human vulnerabilities using the same techniques employed by sophisticated threat actors targeting high-net-worth individuals.
Comprehensive Audit
Every entry point evaluated and secured — from garden gates and service entrances to Wi-Fi access points and smart home controllers. We deliver a complete picture of your property's security posture with prioritised recommendations that close the gaps adversaries would exploit.
Why this matters
Your residence is where you are most vulnerable and least vigilant. The convergence of physical security, connected technology, and human factors creates a complex attack surface that most security reviews never fully assess.

What's Included
A complete adversarial assessment
01
Physical Security Assessment
A complete adversarial evaluation of your property’s physical defences — from perimeter fencing and gate systems to door locks, window sensors, and CCTV coverage gaps.
- Perimeter breach testing including fence lines, hedging, and boundary walls to identify blind spots and weak access points that a determined adversary could exploit
- Gate and entry system evaluation covering electronic locks, intercom systems, keypad vulnerabilities, and tailgating opportunities during staff or delivery access
- CCTV coverage mapping to identify dead zones, camera tampering vulnerabilities, and recording system weaknesses that could be exploited to operate undetected
- Safe room and panic room assessment including communication redundancy, power independence, and physical reinforcement standards against forced entry
02
Network & Smart Home Penetration Testing
Every connected system in your home is a potential entry point. We simulate real-world attacks against your Wi-Fi networks, smart home platforms, and IoT devices to expose exploitable weaknesses.
- Wi-Fi network penetration testing across all bands and access points — including guest networks, staff networks, and hidden SSIDs that may be poorly segmented or using weak encryption
- Smart home platform exploitation targeting lighting controls, HVAC systems, automated blinds, and voice assistants to determine what an attacker could control remotely
- Alarm system bypass testing including cellular backup jamming, sensor spoofing, and control panel exploitation to evaluate whether your security system can be silently disabled
- IP camera and video doorbell assessment covering default credentials, unencrypted streams, and cloud storage vulnerabilities that could allow remote surveillance of your home
03
Staff Social Engineering Assessment
Your household staff are the human layer of your security. We test their resilience against social engineering, pretexting, and manipulation techniques that real adversaries would employ.
- Pretexting scenarios targeting housekeepers, nannies, drivers, and personal assistants — testing whether they can be manipulated into revealing schedules, codes, or personal information
- Phishing and vishing campaigns directed at staff email addresses and phone numbers to measure their ability to recognise and report suspicious communications
- Physical social engineering including impersonation of delivery personnel, maintenance contractors, and utility workers to test access control procedures at the property
- Tailored security awareness report for each staff member with specific recommendations, training needs, and a prioritised remediation plan for identified weaknesses
Who This Is For
Designed for those who need it most
UHNWIs & Family Offices
Simulated adversarial attacks on estates and residences where generational wealth and family privacy are at stake
HNWIs & Entrepreneurs
Testing the physical and digital security of high-value properties where business and personal life converge
Family & Spouses
Ensuring the homes where families live are secured against intrusion, surveillance, and social engineering of household staff
Your home is your most private space
and your most vulnerable.
Behind the gates and alarm panels, most residences harbour a network of exploitable weaknesses — from misconfigured smart home devices to staff who have never been tested against social engineering. A red team assessment reveals reality.
Key questions
Common questions from principals considering a residential red team assessment and security audit.
What exactly does a residential red team assessment involve?
A residential red team assessment is a controlled, authorised simulation of real-world attack scenarios against your home and estate. Our operators attempt to breach your physical security, compromise your digital networks, and manipulate household staff — using the same techniques that genuine adversaries would employ. The goal is to identify every vulnerability before someone with malicious intent does. All testing is conducted under strict rules of engagement agreed with you in advance.
Will the assessment be disruptive to my household?
We design every engagement to minimise disruption. Physical testing is typically conducted at agreed times, and digital testing runs silently in the background. Staff social engineering is conducted discreetly and without causing alarm. Your family’s daily routines, comfort, and sense of security are maintained throughout the process. You will receive a comprehensive debrief and written report upon completion.
Do you test household staff without their knowledge?
Yes, with your authorisation. Social engineering tests are most effective when staff are unaware they are being assessed, as this reveals their genuine response to manipulation attempts. We handle all findings with discretion and frame the results constructively — the goal is to improve awareness, not to punish individuals. Post-assessment training is always included.
How often should a residential red team be conducted?
We recommend an initial comprehensive assessment followed by periodic retesting every 12 to 18 months, or whenever significant changes occur — new staff, new smart home installations, property renovations, or changes to your threat profile. Ongoing monitoring services can bridge the gap between formal assessments.
Can you assess multiple properties and residences?
Absolutely. Many of our clients maintain multiple residences across different jurisdictions. We assess each property independently, accounting for local infrastructure, regulatory environments, and the specific threat landscape of each location. A consolidated report highlights systemic vulnerabilities that span your entire property portfolio.
What happens after vulnerabilities are found?
Every finding is documented with severity ratings, exploitation evidence, and specific remediation guidance. We provide a prioritised action plan and can oversee the implementation of fixes through our trusted network of physical security consultants, smart home integrators, and network engineers. A validation retest confirms that all identified vulnerabilities have been effectively closed.
