Happy Friday and Happy Halloween, if you celebrate it!
It’s been a while since my last newsletter. Life got busy with my job search. My contract was ending with a previous employer, and fortunately the day after my contract ended I started a new role at Suzu Labs. My new role is Senior Consultant and Evangelist. I am back to pentesting as part of my job. I spoke at HOU.SEC.CON. that took place on September 30 to October 1. We announced my collaboration with HOU.SEC.CON. now rebranded as CYBR.SEC.CON. to start a hacker conference in the DFW area called CYBR.HAK.CON.. After Hack Space Con this year, I decided that I wanted to start a hacker conference, which is how this all came about. The conference is in Plano, TX on March 17, 2026. For more detalis and tickets go to the CYBR.HAK.CON. website (https://www.cybrhakcon.com/). I hope to see you there.
