7MS #458: Interview with Tanya Janca

Today we're super excited to share a featured interview with Tanya Janca of WeHackPurple!

Tanya has been in software development from the moment she was of legal age to work in Canada - beginning by working with some huge companies (Nokia/Adobe) before falling in love with application security and eventually starting a company of her own. Gh0sthax and I sat down with Tanya over Zoom to discuss:

  • How to overcome your fears and present at conferences, write blog posts and even start your own company!
  • How to deal with online jackwagons who troll you online at conferences
  • The importance of finding a mentor and mentoring others

Also, here are a bunch of handy links and hashtags Tanya shares throughout the interview:

  • Bob and Alice Learn Application Security - Tanya's book, available on Amazon
  • Women of Security (WoSEC)
  • We Hack Purple Podcast - weekly podcast with a diverse range of guests from all walks of infosec life
  • We Hack Purple Community - "a Canadian company dedicated to helping anyone and everyone create secure software."
  • Tanya's music on Spotify
  • #CyberMentoringMonday - a hashtag that Tanya and other security professionals monitor to help people connect with cyber mentors
  • InsiderPHd - has a safe space for bug bounty hunters to learn and collaborate
  • WeAreHackerz - "You are welcome to join WeAreHackerz if you identify as a person of a marginalized gender, including but not limited to non-binary individuals, women (trans and cis), trans men, genderqueer, etc. We welcome members across all nationalities, races, religions, ages, or other characteristics that make each of us unique."

7MS #256: AlienVault Certified System Engineer - Part 2

So a few weeks ago I did an episode about the AlienVault Certified Security Engineer certification, and last Friday I took a stab at the test. I failed. It kicked my butt. Today I'm here to both rant about the unfairness of the test and offer you some study tips so you don't suffer a similar fate. P.S. - you should definitely check out this blog as it's one of the few valuable study guides I could find out there on the Interwebs.

7MS #255: PwnPro 101

I'm kicking the tires on the PwnPro which is an all-in-one wired, wireless and Bluetooth assessment and pentesting tool. Upon getting plugged into a network, it peers with a cloud portal and lets you assess and pentest from the comfort of your jammies back at your house! Oh, and did I mention it runs Kali on the back end? Delicious. Today's episode dives into some of what I've been learning about the PwnPro as I run it through its paces at work and warm it up for our first customer assessment...

7MS #254: Bash Bunny

I've been working with the Bash Bunny for the past few weeks in preparation for a presentation/demo I'm doing in a few weeks. Today I want to talk about what the Bunny is, the cool things it can do, and some of my favorite payloads. Also, I started thinking about what conversation topics spawn from a demo of the Bunny. Specifically, I want to know how people would defend against the Bunny using AD policies, peripheral controls, etc. Check out the Hak5 thread I started about this, as it has got some great ideas.
