A security manager has decided to form a special group of analysts who participate in both penetration testing and defending the company's network infrastructure during exercises. Which of the following teams should the group form in order to achieve this goal?

The Blue team focuses solely on defensive strategies, monitoring network activities, and responding to security incidents. While important for network defense, this team does not engage in offensive penetration testing activities, making it unsuitable for the specified goal.

The Red team primarily conducts penetration testing by simulating cyberattacks to assess the security posture of the organization. Unlike the Purple team, the Red team does not actively participate in defending the network infrastructure, focusing solely on identifying weaknesses through offensive tactics.

The Green team concept is less common in security operations and does not typically involve a combination of penetration testing and defensive activities. This team may focus on specific areas such as compliance, risk assessment, or specialized security functions, but it does not align with the requirement for dual participation in offensive and defensive exercises.
