Listen to learn tips for choosing a penetration testing firm and the surprising qualities that make for a good pentester.
Paul Poh (CISSP, CISM, CRISC, CIPP/US) has had an interest in cybersecurity since before the internet as we know it existed. From his first exposure to the “Morris Worm” in the early ‘90s as a software engineer at Tufts University, to his current role as Partner at Radical Security, Paul’s mixture of curiosity and wisdom have helped him maintain the perspective needed to be a successful penetration tester.
Paul Poh shares his insights with our Host Jen Stone (Principal Security Analyst, CISSP, CISA, QSA) on why it’s the small things that can take down an organization’s security.

You can do a great job protecting production, but if a hacker can find something small, they will.”
