MODERN LIFE CREATES
TARGETING INTELLIGENCE
Modern life constantly produces information about who we are, what we do, where we go, and who we interact with.
A purchase creates a record. Travel creates an itinerary. Movement creates a pattern. For high-value principals, their visibility, assets, and relationships expose even more.
Individually, these pieces are often benign—like pieces of a puzzle. Combined, they give a determined adversary what they need to find, predict, and reach the principal - Often without breaching a system, triggering a control, or generating an alert.
SECURITY HAS BOUNDARIES.
ADVERSARIES DON'T.
Information about the principal is spread across people, systems, sources, and environments—beyond security's control.
Additionally, no single security function is designed to see all of it. Security is specialized by design, with each capability focused on its own mission and area of responsibility.
Adversaries don’t have boundaries.
They assemble the pieces across domains, conduct reconnaissance, and use people or systems anywhere in the principal’s ecosystem to build a pathway.
The result: a pathway that crosses multiple security domains without appearing significant to any one of them.
COUNTER-TARGETING
DISRUPT THE TARGETING PROCESS BEFORE IT CREATES THE OPPORTUNITY TO ACT.
FIND
PROVE
DENY
VERIFY
Find the pathways they would find.
Prove which pathways are viable.
Deny what makes them possible.
Verify they no longer work.
Recce Group runs the targeting process from the adversary’s perspective to determine how a capable adversary could find, predict, and reach the principal. We validate viable pathways, work with your team to close them, and return to verify they no longer work.
THE RESULT: A PRINCIPAL WHO IS HARDER TO FIND, PREDICT & REACH.
