The present invention discloses system and method to perform automated red teaming in organizational network replacing conventional orchestration and playbooks. The method includes obtaining input data and exit criterion for an organization from data sources. Further, the method includes determining attack surface associated with the organization based on the obtained input data and the exit criterion. The method includes identifying attack frontiers for the attack surfaces. Further, the method includes prioritizing the attack frontiers. Additionally, the method includes simulating the attack frontiers at the attack surfaces based on the prioritization. Moreover, the method includes determining attack paths associated with the attack surface based on results of simulation. Also, the method includes learning attack patterns associated with the attack paths based on the results of execution. Further, the method includes generating an artificial intelligence-based security model representing vulnerability of the attack surfaces.
