Blue team services:

• IR readiness assessments to understand the organization's readiness to detect, respond and recover from an incident.
• Tabletop exercises to ensure an organization's IR plan is effective.

"The overall goal is to leverage expertise from both sides of Information Security to provide a high quality, white-glove service to everyone as well as provide back valuable data to the community," said Quentin Rhoads-Herrera, TEAMARES' director of professional services.

New course offered at BlackHat 2020
To help sharpen the skills of penetration testers and threat hunting teams, TEAMARES will be offering an onsite training course at BlackHat USA 2020 in "Adversary Emulation and Active Defense."  This course will provide information security concepts utilized in both offense and defense. Attendees will learn skills that can be applied to increase capability from both sides including exploitation, circumventing defenses and lateral movement from an attacker's perspective. The course will also cover key techniques for detection, threat hunting and mitigation to counter an attacker's toolbox.
