Red Team SIG

Red Team SIG

Traditional security methodologies have largely been focused on prevention, aimed at eliminating vulnerabilities and thereby mitigating security breaches before they happen. Security prevention strategies and technologies are important but cannot guarantee safety from every attack. Given today’s dynamic threat landscape, it is vital to acknowledge that a breach has either already occurred or that it’s only a matter of time until it will. Red Team activities deliver end-to-end breach simulations that provide, as realistically as possible, security incidents that prepare those involved with dealing with actual breaches. The Red Team SIG provides a forum for practitioners to discuss the state of the art for tools, technologies, processes and methodologies for red team activities and to share experiences and best practices.

This SIG focuses on everything around adversarial testing and attack simulations and thus is a work group of security professionals / researchers and other active contributors that wish to deliver SIG's mission.

Kindly classify yourself to best effort of your intent and interest.
