What is Blue Team in Cyber Security?
Blue teams and SOC analysts assess organizational security environments during cyber security testing engagements and defend these environments against red teams. These “red teams” take on the role of attackers by locating security flaws and launching attacks inside of a secure setting. Both teams work together to provide light on the genuine security state of a business.
A well-known military tenet is that striking your fortifications under controlled conditions will help you better understand them. This concept is most frequently used in the technique known as “red teaming,” in which a third-party team of unbiased actors checks a target organization’s systems or defenses to find any existing weaknesses.
Why will you need a notes system?
You could be actively working as an incident responder, security operations analyst, network security specialist or you could be preparing and studying for a certification exam such as Cisco Cyber Ops. In both cases, a set of notes maintained in your repository where you can search for commands, concepts or use cases that could aid you in the task you are performing is necessary for a productive studying and/or working.
Who Are These Notes For?
- Cybersecurity students preparing for certification exams such as Cisco cyberops, COMPTIA Cybersecurirty analyst,Splunk SIEM,etc.
- Professionals and SOC analysts who are actively working in the field and need a set of ready and consice cybersecurity notes.
