"Security is hard, even for professionals. There are a ton of things to know. As a defender, you have to be right 100% of the time. As an attacker, you kinda just have to get lucky once. If you go out there and educate people (in your company) about security, then they can become an ally for you."
Join us this week as Jen Stone(MCIS | CISSP | CISA | QSA) and Matt Halbleib (CISSP | CISA | QSA (P2PE) | PA-QSA (P2PE)) discuss all the things you can do to better prepare you and your company for a risk assessment.

A note from Jen: We built Practical Cybersecurity because we were tired of the fear-mongering in this industry. Security shouldn't be a secret club.
