Selected Answer: C
Red Team is the correct choice since it is asking to identify weak points and vulnerabilities in the systems. Red team will simulate a real-world attack to test the systems and see where vulnerabilities are.

Interesting - both Claude and ChatGPT suggest Blue Team. Blue Team: Focuses on defensive security Identifies vulnerabilities in existing systems Conducts internal vulnerability assessments Proactively searches for potential weaknesses Aims to protect and strengthen organizational systems Red Team: Focuses on offensive security Simulates external attack scenarios Attempts to exploit vulnerabilities Tries to breach system defenses Approaches systems from an attacker's perspective While both teams deal with vulnerabilities, the Blue team is specifically responsible for identifying and determining whether systems can be exploited. They assess vulnerabilities systematically and work to remediate them before they can be used maliciously. The Red team would be more likely to actually exploit those vulnerabilities to test defenses, but they aren't primarily responsible for the initial identification and assessment of potential system exploits.

B. Blue team Here's why: Blue team is responsible for defensive security. Their main role is to monitor, detect, and respond to threats and vulnerabilities within the organization's systems. This includes assessing the company's systems to identify weaknesses that could be exploited by a known vulnerability and implementing measures to address them.

Yes Blue team are defensive, hence the perform vulnerability scan from time to time to see if system are up to date in order to defend an attack. However, the question is who check - "whether a company has systems that can be exploited by a potential, identified vulnerability? Therefore is Red Team because they are the offensive team and they perform penetration to see where a system is vulnerable. If any is found, Blue team defend it. Answer is Red Team

The correct answer is here C. Red team. NOT B..I will give my reason below Here's why: A Red team is a group of security professionals who act as adversaries to simulate real-world attacks. Their job is to identify vulnerabilities and exploit them in the same way a potential attacker would. The Red team often tests the security defenses and evaluates whether systems and processes can be breached. Their goal is to find weaknesses in the system before actual malicious actors can exploit them.
