Description

Effective Red Team Assessments

A Red Team Assessment (“Red Team”) is the process of using tactics, techniques, and procedures to emulate real-world threats in order to train and measure the effectiveness of the people, processes, and technology (the “program”) used to secure an organization.  The purpose of a Red Team Assessment is to identify vulnerabilities in the security program in order to provide the organization with prioritized corrective measures that improve and strengthen the program.  However, for the Red Team to be effective, it must be properly planned, documented and communicated.  Properly communicating the Red Team results is crucial to improving the security program; ensuring sharpened skills and more robust responses.  In this presentation, we will discuss considerations for properly planning and executing a Red Team Assessment of a security screening operation (e.g. bag search, metal detection, x-ray); including program authorization and documentation, personnel selection and training, and communicating the results in a manner which improves the program.
