Episode 21 – The Myth of the Purple Teamer with Haydn Johnson
I speak with Haydn Johnson about the myth of the purple teamer, that is, an individual who does both red and blue team activities as part of their day job.

I love purple teams. Purple teaming is something that I was hoping to share with more people and more organizations! It's part of the reason I named this podcast after them. So why don't I think that a purple teamer exists? It's an interesting stance, but it's one that makes sense. Joining me this week is Haydn "Doctor Purple" Johnson to discuss all things purple.
