Scenarios
Security varies
by Environment
Because system architectures and operations differ by industry, the same attack can lead to very different outcomes. We build scenario-driven security and response frameworks tailored to each environment, grounded in real-world incidents.
Public
Institution
In 2023, the U.S. Department of Energy and multiple federal agencies were impacted by a global campaign exploiting vulnerabilities in MOVEit Transfer, resulting in data integrity damage across two DOE-affiliated organizations.
The key issue wasn’t only the agencies themselves. Attack surfaces extended to external file transfer tools and supply-chain-connected systems.
How HEXA LABS approaches it
-
Identify attack surfaces, including external file transfer solutions
-
Design and validate supply-chain intrusion scenarios
-
Coordinate CERT-backed response when incidents occur
HEXA LABS assesses attack surfaces across external file transfer tools and connected systems, then designs supply-chain intrusion scenarios alongside a CERT-ready response framework.
Financial
Services
In 2019, Capital One experienced a major data exposure incident impacting approximately 106 million individuals, resulting in an estimated $150M in losses.
The attacker leveraged an SSRF vulnerability to access AWS access keys, obtained temporary credentials, enumerated S3 buckets, and copied sensitive data.
How HEXA LABS approaches it
-
Chained-vulnerability attack scenarios
-
High end penetration testing including data access and exfiltration paths
-
Validate exposure of WAF/proxy/metadata services
HEXA LABS validates cloud configuration, IAM permissions, and data-store access paths, going beyond vulnerability checks to confirm real-world exfiltration risk.
Manu-
facturing
In 2023, Clorox faced major business disruption after a cyber incident caused network outages and production line interruptions, leading to widespread product shortages.
The incident drove significant recovery costs and broader losses tied to supply chain disruption and halted operations.
How HEXA LABS approaches it
-
Step-by-step assessment focused on production system impact
-
Operational environment testing that minimizes downtime
-
Build incident response and recurrence prevention frameworks
HEXA LABS validates people, accounts, and operational processes together, testing attack scenarios without halting production and designing both response and recurrence prevention.
