What is Physical Penetration Testing? Episode 42 | Titan PI TV

Red teaming is an objective led penetration test typically scoped to obtain data or to gain access to sensitive areas or networks.

Blue teaming is a team who react to the red team and try to prevent the attack.

Purple teaming is where two teams work together either in conjunction or by sharing information after the test.

Black teaming is a phase used to describe a physical penetration test.

There are six phases to a physical penetration test.
