Please Hack Me: Hacking Companies for Good

Presented by

Guest: Ted Harrington, Independent Security Evaluators & Cybersecurity Author; Host: Chris Clarke, LogicGate

About this talk

They say it takes a thief to catch a thief, so why not a hacker to catch a hacker? That was the premise behind Ted Harrington’s Independent Security Evaluators, a company dedicated to poking holes into other companies’ cyber defenses — for the right reasons, of course. On this episode of GRC & Me, Ted takes LogicGate’s Chris Clarke on a journey down the benevolent hacker’s rabbit hole, where they discuss: • The difference between white box and black box testing (and which is better.) • Why carrying these exercises out can build trust and become a competitive advantage in third-party risk assessment. • Why it’s important to shift your mindset from one that views security as an obstacle to one that views it as an opportunity. • Uncovering the unknown unknowns in cybersecurity. • How “defense in depth” strategies can put security teams a step ahead of threat actors. • The four traits that lead hackers to be successful, and why thinking like one can be an effective way to bolster your cyber defenses.
