Purple Teaming brings offensive and defensive teams together to continuously test, measure and improve detection and response capability. Rather than operating in silos, Maple’s Purple Teaming creates a collaborative environment where attacks are executed, observed and improved in real time.
What is Purple Teaming?
Purple Teaming is a structured collaboration between Red and Blue Teams. Offensive techniques are executed transparently, while defensive teams monitor, detect and respond, with immediate feedback and adjustment.
At Maple, we believe that true cyber readiness is built through collaboration, transparency, and iteration and our Purple Teaming philosophy focuses on one outcome: turning findings into measurable, repeatable improvement. This approach turns testing into learning and learning into measurable improvement.
Maple’s approach models diverse threat actors, including:
Collaboration that delivers measurable improvement
Maple’s consultants hold industry-leading offensive and defensive certifications (e.g., CREST)
We map findings to MITRE ATT&CK for clarity and repeatability, and our Red Team draws from real-world incident response cases.
Experience across public sector, government, finance, critical infrastructure, healthcare, and technology sectors.
With our innovative PTaaS platform and 24/7 SOC visibility of real attacks (e.g. via our honeypots), we’re seeing new attack paths frequently that we us to continuously evolve our methodologies and tooling to mirror real-world threats,
We prioritise long-term improvement over one-off testing we support remediation, validation, and capability development, fed by our 24/7 SOC service.
Maple’s reporting translates technical findings into business impact, helping executives allocate resources where they matter most.
Red and Blue Teams work together to identify attack paths, prioritise risk and share learning across every exercise.
Realistic attacker techniques are executed across multiple paths, reflecting how different adversaries would attempt to breach defences.
Detection and response are tested in real time, with alerts, escalation and response validated under live attack conditions.
Controls, detections and playbooks are tuned and re-tested, producing measurable improvement across MTTD, MTTR and MITRE ATT&CK coverage.
