Exploring Information Security Archive 1 Timothy De Block

This isn’t the easiest thing to do. Now that I’m writing the podcast post after recording and editing the podcast, I have a sense of relief. For the last month plus, I’ve tried to decide whether or not to shut down the podcast. The fact that it took this long to record a final episode tells me that it was time. I wrote about my reasoning in a blog post on the main page. This may or may not be the end. That largely depends on if someone would like to pick up the podcast and produce it themselves. I’d love to guide and mentor someone on the journey.

The podcast has been beneficial to me and the many people who have reached out providing appreciative feedback. I’d love to see it continue. I’m also content that this is the end of the podcast. I will be at BSides Nashville shooting pictures and very likely be at DEFCON manning the Social Engineering door. Come see high or reach out to me on social media (@TimothyDeBlock) or email (timothy[.]deblock[@]gmail[.]com).

Ed (@EdgarR0jas) is the creator of Tactical Edge (@Tactical3dge), which runs October 24 - 27, 2016, and PVC Security podcast co-host. For listeners of that podcast, I apologize. You've heard about about Tactical Edge extensively. However, I managed to get a little more out of him in this episode. We discuss origins and what makes this conference unique.

Valerie (@hacktress09) is an executive consultant for Securicon. She uses many techniques to pentest an organization via social engineering. One of the techniques she uses the most is phishing emails. In this episode we discuss what is social engineering and why it's important.

Chris (@_Lopi_) has some interesting thoughts on mentorship and how the infosec community can be better at it. Here is the tweet from Chris that caught my attention, "What do I want? To get more folks interested in infosec and help them break into the industry. We need better mentors." Upon further investigation I noted that Chris is creating a game for people trying to break into information security. How this applies? You will have to listen to the episode.

Steven (@ZenM0de) is a principal security strategist at eSentire. Part of his role is implementing, and even sometimes creating, security frameworks for organizations. We define what a security framework is and then discuss the process for choosing a framework.
