PURPLE TEAM SIMULATIONS

Purple Team: raise detection by drilling attacks side by side with your defense

A joint exercise where our operators replay attacker techniques while your defense watches and tunes detection live. You leave with measurably better MITRE ATT&CK coverage.

Techniques mapped to MITRE ATT&CKLive detection tuning with the teamMeasurable coverage before and afterConcrete rules and recommendations

WHY IT MATTERS

Defense learns best when it sees the attack at the moment it happens

Red Team tells you whether an attack got through. Purple Team goes further: it shows exactly which technique your SOC missed and helps fix it on the spot, before the exercise ends.

We work alongside your team. We run techniques from MITRE ATT&CK one by one, they watch whether detection catches them. Where it does not, we build rules on the spot and confirm they start firing.

WHAT WE DO

Attack and defense at the same table

01
Technique emulation
We replay real attacker techniques step by step, aligned with MITRE ATT&CK.
02
Detection measurement
We check which techniques raise an alert and which pass without a trace.
03
Rule tuning
On the spot we improve rules in EDR and SIEM to close visibility gaps.
04
Fix validation
We re-run the technique and confirm detection now works.

We tailor the scenario to your defensive stack and the threats most likely for your sector.

OUR APPROACH

Collaboration instead of competition

Purple Team is not about beating the defense, it is about strengthening it. All the value lies in what the defense team sees and learns during the exercise.

We run each technique openly and explain the trace it leaves. That way the team does not just close one gap, it learns to recognize a whole class of similar attacks.

COMPLIANCE

Proof that your detection investment actually works

Purple Team exercises provide measurable evidence of monitoring and response effectiveness that regulators expect.

NIS2
Evidence of the ability to detect and respond to incidents.
DORA
Validation of monitoring and response within operational resilience.
ISO 27001
Confirmation that technical controls and processes are effective.

STANDARDS & CERTIFICATIONS

We work to recognized methodologies, not gut feeling

Every project is run by certified pentesters and based on public standards. That makes the result repeatable, auditable and comparable across vendors.

HOW WE DO IT

A cycle of attack, measure, improve

01
Planning
We pick techniques relevant to your environment and threats.
02
Emulation
We run the technique openly, next to the defense team.
03
Measurement
We check whether detection fired and with what delay.
04
Tuning
We improve rules and configuration where gaps existed.
05
Validation
We re-run the technique and confirm the new coverage.

EVIDENCE

Numbers behind every promise

Every test is run by certified pentesters, and we document the result with reproduction steps, evidence and a verified remediation path. Proof, not a promise.

20+ offensive certifications across the team (OSCP, OSEP, OSWE, CREST). Tests are run by our people, not anonymous subcontractors.
02
Manual testing
We work by hand to PTES and OWASP, chaining seemingly small flaws into a real, proven attack path.
03
Evidence, not a promise
Every finding comes with reproduction steps and a working proof. A report that holds up in front of an auditor.

After fixes are deployed we confirm in writing that the gaps are closed. We do not vanish once the PDF is sent.

KNOWLEDGE

A Purple Team session in practice

What a Purple Team is and when it makes sense

A Purple Team is collaboration between the attacking and defending teams in real time. Instead of only checking whether entry is possible, we jointly improve the company's ability to detect and stop an attack.

It is a good choice when you want to deliberately raise detection maturity, not just receive a list of vulnerabilities. Here the attack is a tool for tuning the defense, not an end in itself.

What a Purple Team session looks like

We run techniques one by one to MITRE ATT&CK, while the defenders watch whether and how they see them. We discuss each technique immediately: what should appear in the logs, why the alert did not fire and how to fix it.

We work iteratively: after tuning a rule we repeat the technique and confirm it is now detected. This way the effect is visible at once, not weeks later in a report.

What the defending team gains

The team receives validated detection rules and a coverage map of attack techniques, not generic advice. They see exactly which attacker steps are detected today and which pass without a trace.

Just as important, the team learns by doing, on real techniques rather than theory. That lifts their effectiveness for the long term, well after the session ends.

What you get and when to choose a Purple Team

The report contains an ATT&CK coverage matrix comparing the state before and after the session, and a concrete list of tuned detections. We show measurable progress, not just a diagnosis.

Choose a Purple Team when you already have a team or tooling for detection and want to test and strengthen their real effectiveness. It is a natural step between a penetration test and a full Red Team operation.

FAQ

Common questions

How is Purple Team different from Red Team?

Red Team works quietly and tests whether defense responds. Purple Team is an open, joint exercise whose goal is to improve detection right away.

Do we need a mature SOC?

No. Purple Team works well early on too, because it quickly shows where to invest in detection for the biggest effect.

What do we get at the end?

A map of technique coverage before and after, concrete detection rules and a list of recommendations for further work.

What tools do you work with?

The ones you have. We tune detection in your EDR and SIEM so the gains stay with you after the exercise.
