Purple Team Assessment
A purple team assessment is a collaborative exercise where our testers run real attack techniques while your security operations team watches. After each technique, both sides check whether it was logged, detected and alerted, then tune rules on the spot. The result is measured improvement in detection, not just a list of findings.
- Manual, expert-led testing
- CVSS-rated report with fixes
- Retest after you fix
- Written scope before work starts

Purple team vs red team
A red team is covert and tests whether you notice an attack at all. A purple team is open and tests, technique by technique, which attacks your tools and analysts can see. Purple teaming is usually the better first step if detection coverage is unknown.
What the exercise covers
- Technique selection mapped to MITRE ATT&CK
- Initial access, execution and persistence techniques
- Credential access and lateral movement
- Log and telemetry gap analysis
- Detection rule tuning with your team
- Before-and-after coverage report
Requirements Indian businesses usually test for
In India, the trigger for a test is often regulatory. RBI expects regulated entities and their technology vendors to run periodic VAPT. SEBI's cybersecurity framework asks market intermediaries for regular testing. CERT-In directions require organisations to maintain security practices and report incidents. The Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act 2023 requires reasonable security safeguards for personal data.
Enterprise customers also ask vendors for a recent third-party pentest report during security reviews. We write reports so the same document can be shared with a regulator, an auditor or a customer's security team.
How the engagement runs
1. Scoping call (30 minutes)
We agree targets, user roles, environments, testing windows and the compliance reason for the test.
2. Written scope and quote
You get a scope document and an INR or USD quote based on the real size of the work.
3. Discovery and manual testing
Automated tooling for coverage, then manual testing of authentication, access control and business logic.
4. Report
Executive summary, CVSS-rated findings with evidence, reproduction steps and remediation guidance.
5. Retest
Once your team ships fixes, we verify each finding and issue an updated report.
What the report contains
- Executive summary for leadership, customers and auditors
- Findings rated by CVSS severity with screenshots and request evidence
- Step-by-step reproduction for your developers
- Specific remediation guidance, not generic advice
- Compliance mapping (ISO 27001, SOC 2, PCI DSS, RBI, SEBI, CERT-In guidelines) where relevant
- Retest status showing which findings are open and closed
Certifications our testers hold
Every engagement is led by a certified senior tester.
Frequently asked questions
Do we need a SOC?
You need someone who can see your logs and alerts, in-house or a managed provider.
How much does it cost?
Price depends on the number of targets, user roles and depth of manual testing. Use the VAPT cost estimator for an INR range, or book a call for a written quote.
