What RedTeam is
Section titled “What RedTeam is”RedTeam is the skill name. It implements The Red Team Handbook, Version 10 — a civilian successor to the defunct UFMCS v9.0 work. The handbook is published separately as reference content, not as developer documentation.
Not penetration testing
Section titled “Not penetration testing”If you need cybersecurity red teaming, this is the wrong tool. RedTeam is for decisions, plans, strategies, policies, and arguments — applied critical thinking before commitment.
Need the theory?
Section titled “Need the theory?”Browse the Handbook for chapters on cultural empathy, groupthink mitigation, ACT/GTM techniques, and AI-assisted red teaming.
