Black Teaming
Manage episode 432549071 series 2805538
Many are familiar with cybersecurity penetration testing – ethical hacking to uncover digital weaknesses. But what about the real-world threats to your company's physical security? How confident are you in your locks, cameras, and physical security measures to protect your sensitive data or equipment?
In this episode, Robby speaks with Brian Harris, a leading expert in physical penetration testing as a part of Black Teaming. Black Teaming is a type of security assessment that simulates an attack on an organisation, including tactics such as physical intrusion and social engineering. Brian, Chief Instructor for the Covert Access Team, has conducted hundreds of these physical pen tests, helping organisations identify and fix vulnerabilities that could lead to corporate espionage and other threats.
They provide real-world examples, discuss the limitations of common security measures, and touch on methods for improvement. These methods can include gamifying security by incentivizing employees to take an active role in physical security, for instance by keeping an eye on suspicious activity in the office.
