What is purple team?
A purple team is a cybersecurity collaboration model where the red team (attackers) and the blue team (defenders) work closely together to improve an organization’s security posture. Instead of operating in isolation, the teams share insights and feedback to strengthen both offensive and defensive strategies. The goal is continuous learning and improvement.
You can think of a purple team like a joint training session where both the attacker and defender practice together, exchange feedback, and refine their techniques—not to win, but to improve overall security.
Sicra and purple team
Sicra facilitates purple team collaboration by combining insights from both security testing and monitoring. By connecting experiences from sikkerhetstesting powered by River Security with SOC services like proaktiv sikkerhetsovervåking and hendelseshåndtering, organizations gain a comprehensive understanding of how threats emerge and how to respond effectively. The purple team approach is further supported by sikkerhetsstrategi and sikkerhetsanalyser, which provide structured insight into areas for improvement.
