Inside the Attack Chain Part 2: A Purple Team Simulation of Modern Intrusions
Posted on

The threat actor is already inside. Now what?
Part 2 of our Purple Team simulation picks up where we left off, moving deeper into the environment as the attack escalates.
Watch Echelon Risk + Cyber's Offensive and Defensive Security specialists walk both sides of the attack chain as the intrusion advances and show you how purple teaming turns attacker insight into defender advantage.
Our presenters will cover:
- How adversaries move laterally, abuse trust relationships, compromise cloud resources, and stage or exfiltrate sensitive data using the real-world techniques threat actors rely on most.
- What the blue team sees on the backend: investigating alerts, validating detections, and tightening response actions across endpoints, identities, networks, and cloud environments.
- Recurring insights and recommendations from real-world purple team engagements, where common control gaps emerge, and how to close them before they become catastrophic.
