Why Learning Offensive Security Makes You A Better Defender - Catherine Ullman - ESW #268
About this episode
Defensive and Offensive skills have never been mutually exclusive, but the value in training across disciplines has often been overlooked. Catherine joins us today to explain why familiarity with offensive skills, tools, and the attacker's mindset is such a huge benefit for defenders. A few of the highlights we'll cover in this interview include:
- How to get started, learning offensive tools and techniques
- What it means to be an 'Active Defender'
- How to get into the head of the attacker
- How to avoid 'tool-focused tunnel vision'
