Join us for an exclusive in-person event: Adversarial Simulation and Getting the Most out of Your Pentest Spend.

Red Teaming, Purple Teaming, Internal Penetration Testing and Adversarial Simulation are often used interchangeably, yet each serves a distinct purpose in your security testing program. For many organisations, security testing is one of the largest line items in the annual security budget, but the value returned from that spend can vary significantly depending on scope, setup and objectives.  

Join Sam Shute, Director - Offensive Security Services for a practical session on how to plan smarter engagements, avoid common setup pitfalls and walk away with a clearer, measurable view of your organisation's security posture.


Venue: Bastion Security Offices, Level 5, 51 Shortland Street, Auckland  

Date: Wednesday, 2 September

Time: 4.00pm (doors open at 4.00pm, presentation starts at 5.00pm)

Why attend?

Join our speaker for a practical, evidence-based look at:

  • Understand the difference and choose with confidence. Learn what distinguishes Red Teaming, Purple Teaming, Internal Penetration Testing and Adversarial Simulation, and how to match the right engagement type to your organisation's maturity and objectives.  
  • Get more from your testing budget. Discover common setup mistakes that quietly reduce the value of testing engagements, along with practical, low effort changes that improve outcomes without increasing spend.  
  • Move beyond a vulnerability list. Take away a framework for measuring your organisation's actual capability to prevent, detect, respond to and recover from an attack, giving your board and executive team a clearer view of operational maturity.

We look forward to seeing you there.
