1. Red Team vs. Blue Team:
• In a red team/blue team exercise, the red team consists of offensive security experts who simulate cyberattacks to identify vulnerabilities within an organization’s defenses.
• The blue team defends against and responds to the red team’s attacks, working to detect, assess, and mitigate any intrusions.
• These simulations help organizations:
• Identify weaknesses in people, technologies, and systems.
• Improve defensive incident response processes.
• Gain firsthand experience in detecting and containing targeted attacks.
2. From Red to Blue:
• Choosing between red and blue teams is often a commercial decision:
• Blue team: Incident responders who defend and offer clear services to clients.
• Red team: Penetration testers or ethical hackers who simulate real-world attacks.
• Clients are familiar with the differences between these teams.

Remember, both red and blue teams play crucial roles in enhancing an organization’s security posture.
