Going Purple: how combined exercises can improve security
Testing in a vacum is handy for discovering things that need fixing, and it's a lot of help for the vulnerability managers and security teams out there.

What if that activity ALSO could help frame some of the crazy risks that the people you work for are facing right now? In this talk we'll cover the basics of what a purple team activity looks like, why you'd want to run one, and how to make sure it supports other testing and improvement efforts within your company.
