CompTIA CySA+ (CS0-003) — Question 324

A security manager has decided to form a special group of analysts who participate in both penetration testing and defending the company's network infrastructure during exercises.

Which of the following teams should the group form in order to achieve this goal?

Answer options

• A. Blue team
• B. Purple team
• C. Red team
• D. Green team

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, the Purple team, which is specifically designed to foster collaboration between the offensive Red team and the defensive Blue team. The Blue team focuses on defense, the Red team on offense, and the Green team does not have a defined role in this context, making them unsuitable for the stated goal.
