Just finished my 3rd year talking to K–6 students about cybersecurity careers—Zootopia-themed red + blue team storyline, real tools, and stories (redacted, of course). Huge thanks to @bishopfox.bsky.social for the support. These kid make me optimistic for the future. #CyberSecurity #STEM #CareerDay

No one is really against you. They are just out for themselves. If you’re able to mirror someone. Label them effectively. And show curiosity, while building trust from a place of empathy… they will open up and tell you everything.

A lot of you are going to have to talk your way out of (even more) uncomfortable situations going forward and this is actually really solid advice. Voss (former lead FBI hostage negotiator) wrote a fantastic book on negotiation called Never Split the Difference. Good read.

Next Saturday @cactuscon.com catch my Keynote Down the Rabbit Hole: 🐇 Red Team Deep Fakes & the Evolution of #SocialEngineering NOT a talk about how to make deepfakes NOT a talk about raising awareness of deepfakes or social engineering Follow the White Rabbit… 🐇

I recently tested two retail locations. 1. Had a confident and tall person who was clearly in charge and comfortable with their position. 2. Had a more anxious and short person who was in charge but not as confident. Both were key holders, not managers. Who let us in, who sent us packing?
