Monitoring = Blue Team Incident Response = Tabletop Exercise

A blue-team exercise is a simulation of an attack that is used to test the incident response procedures and monitoring capabilities of an organization. It is conducted by the organization's own security personnel, known as the "blue team," to evaluate their ability to detect and respond to a simulated attack. A tabletop exercise is a discussion-based simulation that is used to evaluate the incident response procedures of an organization. It is usually conducted with a small group of key personnel, such as incident responders and management, to evaluate their ability to respond to a simulated incident.

Gray-box penetration test (D) will trigger the alerts for the SOC team Tabletop Exercise (E) - Will be used to see if the current IR policies in place have in gaps and whether the SOC team is able to respond accordingly.

I believe is A (Blue-Team Exercise) and C (Red-team exercise) as these are usually done together - the Read team is attacking and the Blue Team is protecting. The key words in the questions are: " conjoined approaches" and "at the same time"

A. Blue-team exercise: A blue team exercise is a simulated attack designed to test and evaluate the effectiveness of an organization's security operations center (SOC) and incident response procedures. During a blue team exercise, the SOC team will attempt to detect and respond to a simulated attack in real-time, allowing the organization to evaluate its ability to detect and respond to threats effectively. E. Tabletop exercise: A tabletop exercise is a simulation of a real-world scenario that is designed to test an organization's incident response plan. During a tabletop exercise, the SOC team will work through a simulated attack scenario and evaluate the effectiveness of the incident response plan and the procedures in place to detect, respond, and mitigate the threat.

A blue team exercise would not trigger IR plans.

A. Blue-team exercise and E. Tabletop exercise would most likely be used to evaluate the new implementations for monitoring and incident response at the same time. A blue-team exercise involves testing the effectiveness of the organization's security measures and monitoring capabilities by simulating an attack scenario. This exercise can help to identify weaknesses in the security measures and monitoring capabilities, and provide an opportunity to improve the incident response procedures. A tabletop exercise, on the other hand, is a more focused exercise that involves simulating a specific incident and walking through the steps of the incident response procedures. This exercise can help to identify any gaps in the incident response procedures and provide an opportunity to make improvements.

agree with trojan and bob. blue-team exercise + tabletop

A blue-team exercise and a tabletop exercise would be the best conjoined approaches for evaluating the new implementations for monitoring and incident response at the same time. Here is the thought process... A blue-team exercise involves simulating a cyberattack on the company's network and defenses, and then evaluating the effectiveness of the company's incident response procedures and overall security posture. A tabletop exercise involves conducting a walkthrough of the incident response procedures with the relevant stakeholders, and then discussing and evaluating the procedures and identifying any potential gaps or improvements. These two approaches would allow the company to assess the effectiveness of its new SOC provider and incident response procedures in a controlled and collaborative environment.

Red and blue teams for sure.

What gray-box pen got to do with the answer? AC is the answer

Will choose CE. C - This will trigger the newly implemented IR procedure E - This will test the newly IR procedure. In the Lesson Learned phase will evaluate what processes worked and did not work and if there are any enough monitoring that needs to be added or excluded.

gray-box penetration testing has nothing to do with incident response

AC most likely.
