Simply deploying security solutions isn’t going to cut it. Today’s threat landscape constantly evolves and requires organizations to test and validate their solutions before an attack occurs. Like your backups, you should regularly check your security posture to identify gaps and potential vulnerabilities.
A pentest is a productive test of your organization’s environment will help identify misconfigurations and coverage gaps while strengthening your employee’s abilities to detect targeted attacks and limit service disruptions while responding to an incident. Organizations can simulate real-world attacks through a low-risk training environment with a pentest service that will mature their security capabilities and strengthen their overall security posture.
Some organizations created internally resourced red and blue teams. rely on red and blue team exercises to assess and test their security posture and attack surface. During these exercises, the red team, consisting of offensive security experts, attempts to compromise the organization using the latest tactics and techniques leveraged by threat actors. The blue team, consisting of the incident response experts of the organization, will attempt to detect, defend, and respond to the red team’s attacks. Through this process, organizations can identify vulnerabilities, determine areas of improvement, and build first-hand experience identifying and containing targeted attacks.
Join this series of webinars as we discuss red and blue teaming and pentesting. Throughout the series we will have the opportunity to speak with real-life pentesters that will go through their procedures, techniques and tools.
