Purple Team Cyber Security Services | TrustedSec

What is Purple Team Cyber Security?

Purple Teaming combines the offensive strategies of Red Teams (attackers) and the defensive strategies of Blue Teams (defenders) to evaluate and enhance an organization's security posture. By blending both approaches, Purple Team engagements strengthen detection, deflection, and deterrence mechanisms, providing a comprehensive assessment of your cybersecurity readiness.

Why Choose TrustedSec for Purple Teaming?

TrustedSec’s Purple Team engagements are designed to elevate your security operations. Our expert consultants, comprising seasoned Red and Blue security team professionals, bring unparalleled experience and deep tactical insights to your organization. We don't just simulate attacks—we guide you through the process of building robust, lasting defenses.

What Does a Purple Team Engagement Involve?

• Detection: The ability to recognize and identify threats during each stage of an attack. TrustedSec leverages tools like security information and event management (SIEM), user behavior analytics (UBA), and network access control (NAC) to ensure your organization can detect compromises effectively. Enhancing detection through threat intelligence minimizes potential damage during breaches.
• Deflection: This proactive strategy focuses on building robust defenses to protect your network, including the use of intrusion detection/prevention systems (IDPS), antivirus software, and more. We collaborate with your team to reinforce your current defenses where needed and integrate new protective measures.
• Deterrence: TrustedSec assists in developing and implementing deterrent strategies, such as patch management, strict password policies, and decoy tactics (e.g., honeypots and honeytokens) to mislead attackers and monitor their actions. These measures create an environment where attackers are more likely to make detectable mistakes.
