We have an interesting orange insect on our pepper plants that I need help identifying. I was told it was "friendly" and helped control harmful insects but not sure. Appreciate any feedback. Thanks.

This appears to be a nymph of an assassin bug (Hemiptera/Heteroptera: Pentatomidae), and therefor a 'good guy.'
