Using Adversaries in Operations

When you’re ready to begin an Operation, you’ll see the option to select an Adversary under the Intelligence section when configuring your workspace.

Select an Adversary when configuring an Operation

In Co-Pilot mode, Reaper combines adversary intel, environmental intel, Rules of Engagement, and other operational context to suggest relevant Tools.

You can also run Operations in Manual mode for full operator control, or Auto mode to let Reaper execute autonomously. In Auto mode, Reaper is bound by Rules of Engagement and Adversary Agent policies. You define Rules of Engagement when setting up an Operation, and manage Adversary policies from the Reaper homepage.
