Offensive Security provides an independent challenge to HSBC’s cybersecurity posture by bringing the attacker’s mindset to find and exploit vulnerabilities and to simulate real-world attacks. Through this, OffSec discover weaknesses across people, process, and technology, enabling the Firm to better understand its exposure to cybersecurity attacks and to drive a proactive approach to protect itself and to manage risk more effectively. The Security Research team, within the Global Cybersecurity Research and Offensive Security CROS function, provides a specialist approach to assessing the security of systems and technology, identifying previously unknown vulnerabilities and new attack techniques. Additionally, the Security Research team supports the wider CROS function by developing tools and automation of processes to enhance security assessment.
