DevBlue: Applying Software Engineering Practices to Blue Teaming for the Win! -SANS Blue Team Summit
Have you wondered what happens when you get world-class devs and blue team experts in the same team? Meet DevBlue! In this talk, Lucia and Ismael will share lessons learned in a journey where devs and blue teamers have worked together to create an endpoint detection and response (EDR) product. But please keep reading, this is not a product talk! Rather, through the use of practical examples, we want to show you how proven software engineering practices can help you methodically grow your detection capabilities in weekly increments.
In particular, we will cover how to set up and manage an engineering blue team (a.k.a. DevBlue) to apply practices such as issue tracking, peer review, unit testing, automated red teaming testing, continuous delivery, operational intelligence mining, post-exploitation tools, purple teaming, and security posture measurement using the MITRE ATT&CK matrix as a reference.
