Riassunto

Leverage cyber threat intelligence and the MITRE framework to enhance your prevention mechanisms, detection capabilities, and learn top adversarial simulation and emulation techniques

Key Features

• Apply real-world strategies to strengthen the capabilities of your organization's security system
• Learn to not only defend your system but also think from an attacker's perspective
• Ensure the ultimate effectiveness of an organization’s red and blue teams with practical tips

Book Description

With small to large companies focusing on hardening their security systems, the term "purple team" has gained a lot of traction over the last couple of years. Purple teams represent a group of individuals responsible for securing an organization’s environment using both red team and blue team testing and integration – if you’re ready to join or advance their ranks, then this book is for you.

Purple Team Strategies will get you up and running with the exact strategies and techniques used by purple teamers to implement and then maintain a robust environment. You’ll start with planning and prioritizing adversary emulation, and explore concepts around building a purple team infrastructure as well as simulating and defending against the most trendy ATT&CK tactics. You’ll also dive into performing assessments and continuous testing with breach and attack simulations.

Once you’ve covered the fundamentals, you'll also learn tips and tricks to improve the overall maturity of your purple teaming capabilities along with measuring success with KPIs and reporting.

With the help of real-world use cases and examples, by the end of this book, you'll be able to integrate the best of both sides: red team tactics and blue team security measures.

What you will learn

• Learn and implement the generic purple teaming process
• Use cloud environments for assessment and automation
• Integrate cyber threat intelligence as a process
• Configure traps inside the network to detect attackers
• Improve red and blue team collaboration with existing and new tools
• Perform assessments of your existing security controls

Who this book is for

If you're a cybersecurity analyst, SOC engineer, security leader or strategist, or simply interested in learning about cyber attack and defense strategies, then this book is for you. Purple team members and chief information security officers (CISOs) looking at securing their organizations from adversaries will also benefit from this book. You’ll need some basic knowledge of Windows and Linux operating systems along with a fair understanding of networking concepts before you can jump in, while ethical hacking and penetration testing know-how will help you get the most out of this book.

Informazioni sull?autore

David Routin started, in his teens, to learn cybersecurity in the 90s, the passion is continued through various contributions or projects such as MITRE ATT&CK framework, SIGMA, vulnerability disclosures (Microsoft), public events speaking and multiple publications from French MISC magazine to this book.

As a professional, he owned various positions from security engineer to CISO. For the last ten years as Security Operations Center Manager roles, he built and operated multiple SOC for MSSP or private companies. His areas of expertise are SOC, Blue & Purple teaming, incident response, forensic (SANS GCIH/GCFA), detection engineering, management and compliance (ISO27001 or PCI).

Simon Thoores is a cybersecurity analyst specialized in Forensic and Incident Response. He started his career as a Security Analyst after obtaining an Engineering diploma in Information System architecture focus on security. He built his forensics and reverse engineering skills during large-scale incident responses from malware and ransomware attacks to more advanced attacks for a wide variety of environments, he finally certified these skills with GCFA. Then he moved to the Cyber Threat Intelligence field to better understand attacker methodologies to align and strengthen response and support for his clients. Lately he decided to put his skills and knowledges to emulate threat actors to help customer improve their security.

Samuel Rossier is currently SOC lead within a government entity where he focuses on detection engineering, incident response, automation, and cyber threat intelligence. He is also a teaching assistant at the SANS Institute. He was previously responsible for a private bank group CIRT, and also worked as an SOC manager within an MSSP. He also spent several years within a consulting cybersecurity practice.

Samuel currently holds a master's degree in information systems and several information security certifications, including GRID, GMON, eCIR, eCTHP, eCRE, eNDP, and eJPT.

He is also a contributor to the MITRE D3FEND and SIGMA frameworks and likes to speak at conferences and analyze malware. He values a strong emphasis on the people dimension of cybersecurity by sharing knowledge.
