Jared would like to discuss the evolution of purple teaming. Put bluntly, he believes traditional purple team approaches don’t test enough variations of attack techniques, delivering a false sense of detection coverage. He would like to talk about: The shortcomings of red team assessments and why most purple team assessments are too limited. How the testing landscape and requirements have changed (especially as organizations now look to validate vendor tools defense claims). How purple team assessments are evolving with the use of new frameworks like Atomic Testing. And the importance of building and selecting good test cases that cover the many ways attack techniques can be modified.
