Annotation: This article explores the role of penetration testers (pentesters)
within blue team operations, highlighting the positive impact they bring to
organizational cybersecurity defenses. Pentesters offer a unique perspective by
simulating potential attack vectors, uncovering vulnerabilities, and facilitating
proactive defenses. By examining current literature, methodologies, results, and the
critical importance of pentesters in blue teams, the study underscores how collaboration
between offensive and defensive security roles improves threat response and
organizational resilience.
