About This Podcast
People often imagine hackers lurking in back alleys, skulking through darkness. Even though the reality is cybersecurity, and even hacking, is more corporate, there’s still an on-the-streets vibe to much of what cyber professionals do. If that’s where your interest lies, The Secure After Dark podcast is for you.
Join host Tanner Shinn to learn from Alias and outside guests about the often-hidden side of cybersecurity.
