X-Force Red tests systems to evaluate the back-end process used to manage the technology networks and ledger environment. The new service is designed to assess the entire blockchain implementation, including chain code, public key infrastructure and hyperledgers.  

The team also tests applications and hardware used to control access and manage blockchain networks. During blockchain testing, X-Force Red will study:
