Blue Team & Red Team Program

Understanding both how attackers think and how defenders detect is the mark of a mature security program. This dual toolkit enables SMEs to build blue team (defensive) and red team (offensive testing) capabilities without a dedicated security team.

The Blue Team section covers SIEM rule tuning, alert triage, threat hunting playbooks, and SOC metrics. The Red Team section covers scoping, rules of engagement, methodology selection (PTES, OWASP), finding templates, and executive report writing.

The Purple Team integration guide shows how to use red team findings to directly improve blue team detection — closing the loop between offensive testing and defensive improvement.
