Why Conduct a Purple Team?

Modern enterprise environments face relentless and evolving cyber threats, yet most teams still operate with siloed red and blue efforts, resulting in blind spots.

The cost of an undetected breach is too high. It’s time to rethink how you validate cyber resilience.

Security controls often underperform against real-world attacks

Incident response plans go untested until it’s too late

Red and blue teams lack collaboration, limiting learning

It’s hard to quantify readiness or communicate gaps to leadership

25%

“Only 25% of organizations test their incident response plans more than once a year.”“80% of security breaches are due to misconfigurations or human error.”

Our Purple Team Approach

Pinebar’s Purple Team is a collaborative cybersecurity service that blends offensive and defensive expertise to early assess your threat detection, response, and prevention capabilities.

Unlike one-off penetration tests, our Purple Team engagements simulate real-world attack scenarios while working hand-in-hand with your blue team, fostering knowledge transfer, accelerating detection tuning, and validating control effectiveness in real time.

Our expert operators continuously refine attack paths, escalate tactics, and identify blind spots, while your team practices defending against active adversaries, without the risk of a live incident.

A Purple Team case study

$2.5b Global Services Business Tests Mature EDR Solution

The client wanted to understand how well a skilled, persistent attacker could operate within an environment protected by extensive network-based protection and proven, effective Endpoint Detect and respond (EDR).

Previous exercise attempts failed to adequately penetrate their environment due to their high level of security maturity. They wanted to evaluate their security team's ability to detect and mitigate advanced persistent threats, as well as their security leadership’s ability to present the risk-based findings to their Board.
