- The PWN: Issue 015
Happy New Year! I hope your 2026 is off to a great start! As much of the US braces for severe winter storms, I hope you are safe and warm. This month, I kicked off season 4 of the Phillip Wylie Show. Other podcast news: Simply Offensive has moved from Simply Cyber to Suzu Labs. Simply Cyber stopped hosting podcasts, and I was going to just stop Simply Offensive altogether, but after some thought, I decided to continue it through Suzu Labs. The official press release can be found here on Business Wire.

Podcast Sponsor
Thank you to our podcast sponsor Teleport Identity Security for sponsoring the Phillip Wylie Show.
Teleport is taking a modern approach to identity security by focusing on how identities are actually used during real attacks. By unifying identity data across cloud, infrastructure, code, and identity providers, Teleport helps security teams detect suspicious behavior as it happens and investigate incidents faster when credentials are compromised. If identity sprawl, lateral movement, or slow investigations are pain points for your team, this is worth a look. Learn more.

CYBR.HAK.CON
I have partnered with CYBR.SEC.Community to start CYBR.HAK.CON in Plano, TX on May 27, 2026. CYBR.SEC.Community hosts CYBR.SEC.CON and OT.SEC.CON. CYBR.SEC.CON was previously HOU.SEC.CON, which ran for 15 years in Houston. CYBR.HAK.CON is a hacker and practitioner conference inspired by conferences such as GrrCon, Hack Space Con, NOLACon, and numerous other hacker conferences.
Our keynotes are Jason Haddix CEO and founder of Arcanum Security and Dustin “Wirefall” Dykes, the founder of Dallas Hackers Association and Telesploit.
The call for sponsors and ticket sales is open. The call for villages and the call for papers are from April 6 to 24. For tickets and more information, go to https://cybrhakcon.com
