Offense and defense work together
Collaborative attack-defense simulation
Creating a solid cyber defense is much more effective when offense and defense work together. Our collaborative purple teaming sessions challenge your current security measures by performing relevant attacker techniques and jointly analyzing your threat detection and response. This sparks knowledge transfer and further development of sophisticated solutions for better detection and response capabilities.
We infuse your defensive team with the attacker mindset.
Together, we strengthen your threat detection and respond capability
Why defensive security teams value purple teaming exercises
Stimulate offense and defense collaboration
Grasp advanced attacker behavior
Clear and focused improvement
A tailored, collaborative, and improvement-driven experience
Purple teaming shows detailed attacker behavior (TTPs) relevant for specific threats your organization faces. In contrast to red teaming, your defensive team is involved from the start of the exerice. Your team and FalconForce together assess how your detections and response processes hold during the performed TTPs.
This intense collaboration enhances your team’s knowledge and allows starting direct improvement to threat detection and response.
For defensive teams that want a collaborative learning experience
Purple teaming FalconForce style
We help your defensive team to better understand attacker behavior while together strengthening your defenses
red and blue collaborate
Valuable learning experience
- Attack-defense simulation: purple teaming exercises are attack-defense simulations. They combine offensive and defensive professionals during collaborative sessions to improve cyber defense capabilities.
- Focused exercise: each exercise focuses on a specific threat or topic, carefully selected based on your input and/or FalconForce’s red and blue experience in similar organizations.
- Learning experience: FalconForce’s purple teaming exercises focus on collaboration, learning and pro-actively enhancing your threat detection & response.
threat actor simulation
Spot where to improve
- Realistic attack activities: we perform selected Tactics, Techniques and Procedures (TTPs) that real-life adversaries use during a cyber-attack. We help you managing the risk of the exercise to an acceptable level, as attacks will be performed in your production environment.
- Understand attacker behavior: by explaining the attack techniques used, we create a better understanding for your team on how attackers work (and how they can be detected and responded to).
- Assess detection in real-time: your defensive team can use their tools to gauge whether (parts of) the attack can be detected. More importantly, our blue team experts will support you in identifying detection improvement opportunities.
Pricing
Single or regular exercise(s)
- Single exercise: perform a purple teaming exercise focused on a specific topic. For example, resulting from a red teaming exercise or based on audit outcomes.
- Regular exercises: plan and perform multiple exercises per year. For example, based on topics from your cyber security roadmap or as regular collaborative activities between your security and infrastructure teams.
How to start a purple teaming exercise?
We help you increase knowledge and improve your threat detection and response
Purple teaming provides a compact, valuable learning experience
Battle-harden your defenses
We simulate specific TTPs of threat actors relevant to your organization in your environment. This gives a solid insight in how effective your detections for these TTPs are and if your response processes work as intended.
Learn and improve
A purple teaming exercise exposes gaps in your detection and response and shows the potential impact of those gaps. This learning experience will aid you in prioritizing detection improvement activities on your cyber roadmap.
Accelerate capability development
We bring a unique combination of red and blue teaming specialists to each exercise. Engaging in-depth with your defensive team in both the attack’s details and – more importantly – working closely with you to better detect or respond to such attacks in the future.
Purple teaming: your next step to enhance your defensive team's knowledge
FalconForce purple teaming helps you increase your defensive team’s knowledge into threat actor behavior “in the field”. In an intense collaboration with FalconForce you assess whether your detection and response operates as intended to thwarts relevant TTPs. We help you learn and improve on the spot and provide valuable insights for further improvement.
