Imagine if your daily routine involved breaking into computer systems, tricking people into revealing passwords, and even sneaking into buildings. This is the reality for penetration testers, or ethical hackers, who are paid to think like criminals to identify and close security loopholes before malicious actors can exploit them.
In this episode of the Unlocked 403 cybersecurity podcast, Becks chats with ESET penetration testers Tomas Lezovic and Pavol Michalec to explore the high-stakes world of ethical hacking. They answer questions such as:
- Why are some organizations hesitant to hire third-party pentesters?
- Do businesses still struggle with basic security measures?
- Which sectors and devices need pentesting the most?
- How can you become a pentester?
- How can something as simple as a ladder help breach an organization’s defenses?
