Moving red and blue teams out of their silos means building a continuous feedback loop that translates adversarial knowledge into actionable defensive countermeasures and real fixes. At the Solutions Summit for Hack & Defend 2025, we’ll present state of the art solutions that can help you to achieve this. Furthermore, with AI and automation everywhere, it’s easy to get buried in data.
