404: Ep.24 - What is Red, Blue & Purple Testing

The red team instigates the trouble when it comes to penetration testing. Red teaming is quite aggressive - a nuclear version of a pen test if you will.

Brad Thomas probes Dr. David Day to give us the scoop on red, blue, and purple teaming in this podcast. Listen in.
