Inside a purple team: Pentesting, vulnerabilities and other key skills
We love red teaming here at Cyber Work, and this week we’re excited to explore a topic just few shades down the spectrum: purple teaming! Luke Willadsen of EmberSec dives into the ways combining red and blue team operations can help stress-test your security department — and explains the benefits of a purple team better than we’ve ever heard it before. He also has some great stuff to say about the importance of soft skills like writing, reporting and, most crucially, empathy, since it may feel like a pentester holds the security team’s career in their hands.
