Within Microsoft Red Team Engineering, the Intelligence team builds the reconnaissance, data, and attack-graph capabilities that allow operators and autonomous agents to understand complex environments before an operation begins. The team brings together signals from across Microsoft and external environments, models identities, assets, relationships, exposures, and likely attack paths, and turns fragmented data into actionable intelligence packages that accelerate red team operations.
