In the cybersecurity world, Red, Blue, and Purple teams have established their roles in fortifying defenses and improving organizational resiliency. However, the spotlight often bypasses a crucial player—the Yellow Teams—operating at the intersection of development, IT, and the cloud. 

Using the familiar color wheel analogy, this insightful discussion describes the yellow team’s pivotal role in fortifying software and infrastructure by seamlessly integrating Red and Blue techniques – improving tech resiliency. Key topics include: 

  • Unveiling the essentials for tech-savvy professionals to integrate security 
  • Crafting a vibrant palette: transforming Yellow Teams into dynamic orange and green forces 
  • The collective advantage: reducing risk via confident, resilient teams
