There’s a constant loop of learning, doing, and improving in offensive security. And one way to develop the “muscle” to tackle complex security challenges is through hands-on training. That’s what IppSec, our guest, does with kindness, passion, and in the community’s best interest.
IppSec helps us bust a couple of common myths which, if left unquestioned, may alter learning, distort results, and, ultimately, create big gaps in understanding, all of which can undermine your future success.
