Blue Team – Incident Response Processes
Is your team prepared for a real-world attack? The Blue Team consists of cybersecurity specialists responsible for monitoring, detecting, and neutralising threats in real time. We develop and optimise incident response processes to help your organisation defend itself effectively and minimise the impact of cyberattacks.
Benefits of Implementing Blue Team Processes
Faster threat detection and response
– we reduce the time between attack and reaction, limiting the damage.
Optimisation of tools and procedures
– we enhance SOC operations, SIEM, EDR and anomaly detection systems.
Increased cyber resilience
– we implement robust detection, analysis and incident response processes.
Protection against advanced threats
– our processes help mitigate APTs, ransomware, and zero-day attacks, preventing financial and reputational damage.
What is the Blue Team and how does it work?
The Blue Team is a group of cybersecurity experts who monitor and protect your organisation against threats by analysing network traffic, logs, and unusual user behaviour.
Our Blue Team approach includes:
- Threat detection and analysis – monitoring IT systems, identifying anomalies and correlating security events.
- Incident Response (IR) – developing and implementing attack response procedures and recovery plans.
- Threat Hunting – proactively searching for hidden threats before they escalate into incidents.
- Log and anomaly analysis – optimising and integrating SIEM, XDR and EDR solutions for effective detection.
- Attack simulations and resilience testing – Red vs. Blue Team scenarios to evaluate the real-world effectiveness of your defences.
With a Blue Team in place, your organisation gains full visibility over its cyber environment and effectively reduces the risk of incidents.
Tools and Technologies We Use
Our Blue Team processes are built on proven tools and advanced detection and analysis techniques:
- Splunk, ELK Stack, QRadar – SIEM platforms for log correlation and anomaly detection.
- MITRE ATT&CK & Sigma Rules – frameworks for mapping attacker tactics and creating detection rules.
- EDR/XDR (CrowdStrike, Microsoft Defender, SentinelOne) – advanced threat detection and response platforms.
- Velociraptor & Sysmon – tools for endpoint activity monitoring and incident response.
- Suricata & Zeek – intrusion detection systems (IDS) for deep traffic inspection.
All procedures follow industry standards such as NIST 800-61, ISO 27035, and MITRE D3FEND.
Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between Blue Team and Red Team?
The Red Team simulates attacks to test your defences, while the Blue Team focuses on detecting and responding to those attacks. Together, they provide a comprehensive security posture.
Which organisations should implement Blue Team processes?
Any organisation with an IT infrastructure and sensitive data should have Blue Team procedures in place – especially those in finance, manufacturing, and public administration.
Can Blue Team services be outsourced?
Yes, we offer managed Blue Team services including 24/7 monitoring, threat analysis, and full SOC (Security Operations Centre) support.
What’s included in Incident Response (IR)?
IR covers the complete process of identifying, analysing, containing, and recovering from security incidents, helping your organisation return to normal operations as quickly as possible after a cyberattack.
