The National Security Agency (NSA) Red Team and Blue Team will host a Department of Defense (DoD) Red/Blue Team (REBL) Symposium. The theme of this year's REBL Symposium is "A Collaborative View of Network Vulnerabilities and Intrusions". There will be three tracks: Red Team, Blue Team and a Management track. The final agenda is still in development; however, three and a half days will be devoted to detailed technical breakout sessions and keynote speaker discussions. The REBL Symposium is designed to provide networking opportunities and technical exchanges for professionals working in the fields of information systems security, computer system penetration testing and infrastructure protection supporting military operations. Topics such as cyber threats, top things Blue Team find, Red Team basics, standards and certifications, tool sharing, wireless networks, root kits, took kits, vulnerability database and corrective action teams remain areas of focus for both Red and Blue Team.
