In the cybersecurity world, everyone talks about Red vs. Blue — attack vs. defend. Red Teams simulate real-world attacks to expose weaknesses. Blue Teams fortify systems, monitor logs, and respond to incidents. Both are critical, but if they operate in silos, you’re missing out on the real sauce.

Enter Purple Teaming — the ultimate collaboration. Instead of just competing, Red and Blue sync up, share intel in real-time, and build stronger defenses together. It’s not about winning; it’s about leveling up the whole security game.

Why Purple Teaming matters:

• Red helps Blue understand real attacker TTPs
• Blue helps Red bypass noisy and outdated detection
• Everyone improves — faster, smarter, and with purpose

If you're still treating your Red and Blue teams like rivals, you're holding your org back. Purple isn’t just a color — it’s the future of mature cybersecurity.
