FAQ section
A group of people emulating a potential cybersecurity attack or exploitation capabilities against an enterprise. A successful red team will improve your organizations cybersecurity by demonstrating the impacts of successful attacks and by demonstrating what works for the defenders (i.e., the Blue Team) in an operational environment. Also known as Cyber Red Team.
Red teams will emulate cyber attacks while blue teams are fortifying defenses and mitigating detected threats against your organization.
Red and blue teams are integral to a comprehensive cybersecurity strategy. The red team, skilled in emulating cyber attacks, exposes system vulnerabilities by testing your organization's defenses. On the other side, the blue team is dedicated to fortifying defenses and mitigating the detected threats.
This dynamic interplay fosters a continuous cycle of improvement. The red team's findings guide the blue team's efforts to strengthen security measures, while the blue team's feedback informs the red team's future assessments. Together, they enhance your organization's overall security posture, ensuring it's always prepared to counter evolving cyber threats.
