Which term designates the group that models the enemy?

• A. PIR
• B. JPP
• C. Group that models the enemy
• D. Red cell

Answer: (D)

In exercises that test defenses, the group that plays the attacker and thinks like the enemy is called the red cell. This team models attacker behavior, explores tactics, and tries to breach defenses to uncover gaps and improve security. The other terms don’t fit because Priority Intelligence Requirement is about identifying what information decision-makers need, not who simulates the adversary. JPP refers to a planning process, not a unit that impersonates attackers. The straightforward label used in practice for the adversary-modeling group is red cell.
