Cyber Odyssey: From Hacking to Entrepreneurship

Learn about cybersecurity from the master himself, Matt Devost. I am honored to speak with Matt, who pioneered the cybersecurity industry when he was the first to hack his way onto an aircraft carrier. He revolutionized red teaming — to give an example of what this means, his team created money (yes, actual money) to deposit into their client's bank account, so they could then steal it, to prove where they had vulnerabilities. This even impressed Accenture, who bought his company and asked him to lead their global cyber defense practice. Matt is a serial entrepreneur, currently the CEO & Co-Founder of OODA, holds several board director and advisory positions, and is an active early-stage investor and founder of the Hack Factory start-up studio.
