Overview of this book

With small to large companies focusing on hardening their security systems, the term "purple team" has gained a lot of traction over the last couple of years. Purple teams represent a group of individuals responsible for securing an organization’s environment using both red team and blue team testing and integration – if you’re ready to join or advance their ranks, then this book is for you. Purple Team Strategies will get you up and running with the exact strategies and techniques used by purple teamers to implement and then maintain a robust environment. You’ll start with planning and prioritizing adversary emulation, and explore concepts around building a purple team infrastructure as well as simulating and defending against the most trendy ATT&CK tactics. You’ll also dive into performing assessments and continuous testing with breach and attack simulations. Once you’ve covered the fundamentals, you'll also learn tips and tricks to improve the overall maturity of your purple teaming capabilities along with measuring success with KPIs and reporting. With the help of real-world use cases and examples, by the end of this book, you'll be able to integrate the best of both sides: red team tactics and blue team security measures.

To perform a privilege escalation, an attacker will leverage different kinds of techniques, such as exploiting a vulnerability, obtaining the credentials of an administrator user, taking advantage of the system's weak configuration, and so on.

In this section, we will explore a trendy technique called T1055 – Process injection, which has many different sub-techniques. Another great technique that we will not cover but is worth looking at is the MITRE ATT&CK technique known as T1543 – Create or modify system process and, more specifically, its sub-technique, T1543.003 – Windows service.
