Working collaboratively to improve defences

The Purple Team approach is a collaborative cybersecurity strategy that bridges the gap between Red Team (attackers) and Blue Team (defenders) efforts, enhancing the overall effectiveness of your security defences.

This programme is designed to foster a culture of continuous improvement by combining the offensive tactics of the Red Team with the defensive strategies of the Blue Team.

Bramfitt Technology Labs offers a comprehensive Purple Team Program that not only identifies security gaps but actively works to build stronger, more resilient defences through knowledge sharing, practical exercises, and real-time threat simulation.

Comprehensive, multi-layered attack simulations to secure your infrastructure

BTL’s Purple Team Program is an integrated service that unites your internal or external Red and Blue Teams to create a cohesive strategy against cyber threats.

Our program includes:

  • Collaborative attack simulations: Red and Blue Teams work together to simulate realistic cyberattacks, with the Red Team actively demonstrating how attackers would exploit weaknesses and the Blue Team responding in real-time.
  • Custom playbook development: Building tailored incident response playbooks that guide your security team through the process of detecting, responding to, and mitigating various attack scenarios.
  • Detection and response enhancement: Focusing on improving your Blue Team’s ability to detect, analyse, and neutralise threats faster and more effectively using the insights gained from Red Team tactics.
  • Threat-hunting training: Empowering your Blue Team with advanced threat-hunting skills to proactively search for signs of compromise and reduce the attacker’s dwell time within your systems.

  • Continuous feedback loop: Establishing a continuous improvement cycle where both teams learn from each other’s techniques, turning every simulation into a learning opportunity that strengthens your security posture over time.

Benefits of infrastructure attack simulations

Engaging with BTL’s Purple Team Program provides a holistic approach to your cybersecurity strategy, ensuring your defences are always evolving.

The benefits of our program include:

  • Enhanced threat detection capabilities: By combining Red Team tactics with Blue Team defences, your organisation becomes adept at identifying attacks faster and more accurately.
  • Reduced response times: The collaborative approach helps streamline your incident response, enabling your team to react swiftly and decisively to mitigate threats in real-time.
  • Knowledge transfer and skill development: Continuous learning and knowledge sharing between teams improve your internal security skills, turning theoretical knowledge into practical expertise.
  • Comprehensive risk mitigation: The integration of offensive and defensive strategies ensures that all aspects of your security posture are tested, evaluated, and fortified against a range of threats.
  • Operational efficiency: Our program fosters a culture of teamwork and communication between Red and Blue Teams, eliminating silos and ensuring your cybersecurity strategy is unified and efficient.

How our Purple Team Program work

1. Initial Consultation Program Design and Alignment

We start by understanding your organisation’s security goals, current capabilities, and challenges to tailor the Purple Team strategy to your specific needs.

2. Red and Blue Team Collaboration

Our experts facilitate structured exercises where the Red Team executes simulated attacks, while the Blue Team detects and responds in real-time. This hands-on engagement fosters direct knowledge sharing.

3. Attack Simulation Continuous Feedback Loop

During these exercises, we establish a dynamic feedback loop where the Red Team provides insights on successful attack vectors, and the Blue Team shares defensive strategies that proved effective.

4. Metrics and Performance Analysis

We track key performance indicators (KPIs) such as time to detect, respond, and neutralise threats. This data-driven approach allows us to measure improvements in both detection and response capabilities.

5. Playbook Development and Refinement

Based on the insights gained, we create or refine incident response playbooks and standard operating procedures (SOPs) to guide your team in handling future cyber incidents more effectively.

6. Ongoing Improvement and Support

BTL provides continuous support and periodic reviews to ensure that your security posture evolves with emerging threats, enhancing both individual skills and team synergy.
