Blue Team: Using Encryption for Product Security
About this Experience
A cybersecurity analyst needs to master the fundamentals of ethical hacking. One practice is to role play as the red team (simulating a cyberattack) or as the blue team (maintaining system defenses during a hack). By working together red and blue teams provide a holistic security solution to defend a product and its affiliated data against evolving threats.
