Description

Defense Evasion is a technique used in cyber security red teaming to bypass or disable security controls and defenses in order to maintain stealth and continue the attack. In this context, Defense Evasion refers to the process of avoiding detection by security tools and systems, such as firewalls, antivirus software, and intrusion detection systems. The goal of Defense Evasion in red teaming is to test the resilience of the target's security infrastructure and identify any weaknesses that need to be addressed. This may involve using tactics such as code obfuscation, timing and sequencing, or misdirection to evade security tools and avoid detection. The success of Defense Evasion in red teaming provides valuable information to the organization about the effectiveness of their security controls and highlights areas for improvement, helping to increase the overall security posture of the system.
