No: 562240000067 Date(g): 13/5/2019 | Date(h): 9/9/1440 Status: In-Force
After completing the red teaming test, or stopping upon request of the White Team Leader, the Red Teaming Provider should prepare their initial observations and findings, preferably in chronological order. These observations and results should be discussed with the Green and White Team. These observations and findings provide the basis of evaluating the detection and response capabilities of the Blue Team. After the preliminary evaluation, the White Team should share their observations, from their respective role and point of view. 
 
Note. After completing the red teaming test the Red Teaming Provider is required to immediately inform the White Team Leader of the installed red teaming scripts, code or malware, etc., including an overview the user-ids which were created, compromised or (re)used during the test. The White Team Leader needs to evidence to the Green Team that these ‘indicators of compromise' were removed or reset.
 
The White Team should include insights of what has and has not been detected or observed by the Blue Team. The Red Teaming Provider should use this information to overall assess and evaluate the Blue Team's detection and response capabilities in the draft report. The Red Teaming Provider should include all relevant observations, findings, recommendations and evaluations, which were noted or experienced during preparation, scenario and execution phase, including those from the White and Green Team. The provided recommendation should consider SAMA Cyber Security Framework and other applicable industry good practice. 
 
The final report should include the exploited cyber kill chains, summarized in the form of attack vector diagrams. These attack vector diagrams should provide insights into how the attack scenarios were executed and where to focus on when implementing mitigating controls. The final report should be agreed upon by all Teams involved and copy of the report should be submitted to SAMA by the provider.
