The training and skills medium
A Red Team is a team of ethical hackers who are experts in cyber security. Their main role is to test an organisation's IT security by simulating real attacks, as real hackers would do. These teams are authorised by the company or organisation that requests their services to find security flaws in their networks and infrastructures, both online and in person.
Remediation in cybersecurity involves correcting, closing or neutralising a flaw or vulnerability identified in an information system, network or application.
Resilience in cybersecurity refers to an organisation's ability to anticipate, withstand, adapt to and sustainably recover from a cyber attack or security incident, while ensuring the continuity of its critical operations.
This approach goes far beyond simple prevention, incorporating a proactive, scalable strategy that minimises the technical, financial, operational and reputational impact.
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) (Regulation 2016/679) is a European law that establishes a harmonised legal framework for the protection of the personal data of citizens of the European Union (EU) and the European Economic Area (EEA).
Adopted on 27 April 2016 and coming into force on 25 May 2018, the RGPD applies directly in all Member States, without the need for a transposition law. In France, the Commission Nationale de l'Informatique et des Libertés (CNIL) oversees its application and supports players in achieving compliance. In Germany, it is the BfDI that oversees its application, and in Spain the AEPD.
