Purple Teaming & Detection Engineering

Align offensive tactics with defensive visibility.
We help your security team detect what matters by simulating what attackers really do.

What We Offer

Red-to-Blue Mapping with MITRE ATT&CK

Every offensive action is documented, mapped, and translated into detection opportunities prioritized by threat actor behavior.

Collaborative Exercises with Your Blue Team

We simulate attacks step by step, enabling your SOC to observe, detect, and respond in real-time accelerating learning and visibility.

Custom Detection Rule Development (KQL, Sigma, YARA)

We write detection logic tailored to your environment and log sources, tested in live emulation scenarios.

Visibility Gap Identification

We highlight blind spots: what went unseen, why it was missed, and how to gain visibility using endpoint, identity, and cloud signals.

Detection-as-Code & Use Case Documentation

All detection content is delivered in structured formats, ready to integrate into Sentinel, Defender, Splunk, or other SIEMs.

Why It Matters

Most security teams don’t lack tools they lack visibility.

And visibility isn’t improved by more alerts, but by understanding how attackers actually behave.

That’s where we come in.

At ODO Cybersec, we bridge the gap between red and blue.

We simulate adversary actions and work alongside your SOC to build meaningful detections not just noise.

Your team learns how attackers operate, how signals are generated, and how to respond faster and smarter.

Why our purple teaming makes a difference

✅Real-time knowledge transfer between red and blue teams
Immediate improvement in detection accuracy and signal-to-noise
Custom rules based on your data sources and risks
Measurable SOC maturity growth after every engagement

Purple teaming isn’t just a workshop.It’s a strategic upgrade to your detection capability — built on real attack logic.

Our Incident Response & Threat Hunting Methodology

Adversary Emulation Planning

We define attacker profiles, objectives, and tactics using frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK, APT mappings, and internal threat models tailored to your environment and priorities.

Stealthy Attack Simulation

Our red team executes real-world techniques step-by-step: initial access, privilege escalation, lateral movement, and persistence carefully documented for blue team observation.

Blue Team Collaboration & Response

Your defenders observe or respond in real time. We help them identify missed detections, validate alerts, and understand the telemetry behind each attacker move.

Detection Engineering & Rule Deployment

Together we create or refine KQL, Sigma, YARA, or Splunk-based rules built from live emulation data. Each detection is tested, validated, and tuned for your systems.

Reporting, Debrief & Maturity Roadmap

You receive a structured deliverable: what was seen, missed, detected, and improved. We provide a tailored roadmap to elevate your detection capability long term.

Success Metrics

80% Increase in Detection Coverage

Post-engagement, SOCs were able to detect 4x more MITRE ATT&CK techniques compared to baseline.
100+ Custom Detection Rules Deployed

Created in collaboration with blue teams across Sentinel, Splunk, Defender, and ELK stacks.
3x Faster SOC Response Time
After purple teaming, SOC analysts reduced triage time through better alert logic and context.
60+ Visibility Gaps Identified
Across identity, lateral movement, cloud telemetry, and endpoint signals all addressed with action plans.
100% Blue Team Participation & Skill Boost
Every engagement improved defender awareness, understanding of attacker behavior, and detection engineering knowledge.
70% Noise Reduction in SIEM Alerts
Custom logic and suppression tuning eliminated alert fatigue and improved analyst focus.

A healthcare organization with E5 licensing and Microsoft Sentinel had dozens of alerts but no clarity.
They couldn’t detect lateral movement or credential abuse despite having Defender XDR fully deployed.

ODO Cybersec conducted a 5-day purple teaming engagement.
We simulated Kerberoasting, token impersonation, and lateral movement through Azure AD hybrid join. The blue team watched the attack unfold live.

Working side by side, we developed 28 custom KQL detections, mapped every attack step to MITRE ATT&CK, and tuned out 60% of noisy alerts.

Result:
Detection coverage increased by 82%, false positives dropped by 70%, and the SOC gained confidence responding to identity-based threats.
