Episode 49: Scoping Offensive Security Engagements
About this episode
In this episode Brad and Spencer discuss the nuances around scoping offensive security engagements. Scoping an offensive security engagement involves defining boundaries, objectives, and limitations before starting. It includes objectives, rules, scope boundaries, legal considerations, timeframe, reporting, approval, and sign-off. Scoping is important for clarity, risk management, compliance, stakeholder involvement, and setting expectations.
