That’s inaccurate. Red Team is the guys that test your security from an attacker view point. Red Teams are often contractors hired by companies. The companies are the ones paying to be “hacked”, so they can fix whatever gaping security holes the red Team finds.
At least, that’s usually the definition. If just talking about AI stuff, I’d call those people testers.
People in red Teams are white hats. The terms describe different things. The “color wheel” is operational and thinks in the context of an organization. Red Team tries to attack our stuff, blue team tries to defend our stuff, yellow team builds our stuff etc.
White hat is just a term for ethical hackers, black hat is a term for criminals. Grey hat means someone in-between (think political hacker defacing website of organization they don’t like), there is also some more but the shades of grey are most important.
