    7MS #51: CEH vs. OSCP (audio)

    A few people have written in asking whether to pursue the CEH or OSCP (or both). This episode discusses my experience with each cert and hopefully points you in the right direction on which one might be right for you. Here's the article on CEH I mention during the episode – it has much more…

    Hey, you should log the stuff going on in your network. This episode talks about that (again).

    7MS #45: OFFTOPIC – Why I Stopped Pirating Software (audio)

    Warning, this is an off topic episode! I used to pirate software. There. I admitted it. But it's funny how a letter from the Comcast legal dept. will change your mind and let you see piracy in a whole new light! 7MS #45: OFFTOPIC – Why I Stopped Pirating Software (audio)

    7MS #42: Vulnerability Scans vs. Pentests (audio)

    I think everybody throws around the terms "vulnerability scans" and "pentests" and they mean completely different things from one person to the next. In this episode I try to clarify the differences and distinctions (in my mind, anyways). 7MS #42: Vulnerability Scans vs. Pentests (audio)

    7MS #38: OFFTOPIC – Health and Infosec (audio)

    Every once in a while I thought it would be fun to go slightly off topic and talk about other stuff I'm interested in. This episode kind of has a tech twist though. I talk about how I use my iPhone and a few apps to stay at least a little bit in shape. 7MS…

    7MS #34: The Hacker Playbook (audio)

    I found a great bit of reading that walks you through the "plays" of hacking – enumeration, exploitation, post-exploitation, etc. It's a great (and affordable) book called The Hacker Playbook. Cheggitowt! Download: 7MS #34: The Hacker Playbook (audio)
