Our Purple Team Services

As BARLAS Cyber Security, we provide collaborative Purple Team services that combine Red Team (offensive) and Blue Team (defensive) capabilities. This approach maximizes knowledge transfer while simultaneously developing your security teams' attack and defense capabilities, strengthening your security posture.

We carry out Purple Team operations for organizations based in Istanbul, across Türkiye and in international markets, focusing on realistic attack and defense scenarios that directly support your SOC, incident response and blue team operations.

Frequently Asked Questions about Purple Team Services

What is Purple Team and why is it important?

Purple Team is a collaborative security approach that combines Red Team (offensive) and Blue Team (defensive) capabilities. This approach allows attack and defense teams to work together to test the effectiveness of security controls, improve detection and response capabilities, and maximize knowledge transfer. Purple Team is important because it helps organizations strengthen their security posture more quickly and effectively.

How often should Purple Team operations be conducted?

The frequency of Purple Team operations varies depending on your organization's size, complexity, security maturity level, and risk profile. Generally, we recommend conducting Purple Team operations every three to six months.
