Inside the Cyber Battlefield - Red, Blue, and Purple Teams Explained
Manage episode 483328810 series 2905184
Are you building a fortress while hackers are finding the back door?
In the latest episode of the Inspiring Tech Leaders podcast, I take a closer look at Red Teams, Blue Teams, and the increasingly vital Purple Teams that are reshaping cybersecurity strategy for forward-thinking organisations.
As a CIO or CISO, you are not just protecting assets, you are safeguarding your company's future. But here is the question that keeps many of us up at night - Are we testing our defences the way real attackers would?
Red Teams think like hackers, probing your networks and exploiting vulnerabilities before the real attackers do. Blue Teams build the walls, monitor the gates, and respond when threats emerge. But the real value is created when these teams collaborate as Purple Teams and create a continuous feedback loop that transforms your security posture.
It's not just about technology, it's about people, processes, and breaking down silos within your security organisation.
Your Red Team tests your weaknesses. Your Blue Team defends your strengths. Your Purple Team makes both sides smarter!
Curious about implementing this approach in your organisation? Listen to the full episode where I explore practical strategies for tech leaders navigating today's cyber battlefield.
