Breach Impact Reduction - RedSeal
Breach Impact Reduction

Limit Breach Impact, Strengthen Resilience

Hidden lateral paths expand the blast radius of attacks. RedSeal uncovers these exposures and simulates attack movement so you can contain threats faster and reduce business impact.

The Challenge & Risks

  • Most tools can’t show how attackers move inside your environment
  • East–west exposures and internal attack paths often go undetected
  • Access restrictions are hard to enforce without breaking operations
Blind spots and overly permissive rules allow attackers to move laterally, delay containment, and drive up breach costs. Internal attack paths expand the blast radius of a breach, turning what could have been a small incident into a business-wide disruption. Without visibility into how exposures connect across hybrid environments, organizations struggle to enforce Zero Trust principles, leaving critical systems vulnerable and incident response efforts slower and more expensive.
You can’t contain what you can’t see.

How RedSeal Helps

Unified visibility and control across every environment.

RedSeal maps your entire hybrid environment to uncover hidden exposure paths, then simulates attacker movement to show how a breach could spread. With this insight, you can validate and enforce Zero Trust policies, tighten access without breaking critical operations, and reduce the blast radius of an attack.

Key Capabilities

Visualize the Environment

Build a dynamic, unified model of your hybrid environment — across cloud, on-prem, and remote networks — to uncover hidden lateral movement and exposure paths.

Attack Path Analysis

Expose attack paths (north–south and east–west) to validate and tighten controls before attackers exploit them.

Prioritize Critical Exposures

Use RedSeal Risk Radius™ to rank exposures by exploitability and potential business impact — ensuring your teams focus on the vulnerabilities that matter most.

The Business Outcomes

By revealing hidden attack paths and validating controls, RedSeal helps reduce the cost and impact of breaches, delivering:
  • Contained breaches faster and reduced impact
  • Minimized cost of response and recovery
  • Strengthened Zero Trust posture with provable evidence

Customer Case Study

Stop Lateral Movement Before It Spreads

RedSeal helped the customer safely tighten overly permissive rules, apply Zero Trust principles, and reduce the blast radius of potential breaches—all without disrupting operations.

Challenge: The sudden shift to remote work required rapid access changes, which led to overly permissive “any/any” firewall rules. These rules created excessive exposure and increased the risk of lateral movement across critical systems. Security teams struggled to tighten access without disrupting essential business operations.

Solution: RedSeal mapped the entire environment to pinpoint unnecessary access, simulated firewall and policy changes in a safe model before deployment, and validated that critical connections remained intact. This allowed the team to apply Zero Trust principles with confidence.

Outcome: The organization significantly reduced opportunities for lateral movement, limited the potential blast radius of a breach, and maintained business continuity while avoiding unnecessary risk or disruption.

With RedSeal, we tightened access to the minimum needed — without guessing or breaking the business.
