Episode Introduction
In this episode of the Hacker Factory Podcast, host Phillip Wylie speaks with guest Greg Porterfield about his unique journey into cybersecurity. Greg started as a developer and gradually transitioned into system administration, application support, and eventually cybersecurity. He gained experience in data ingestion, monitoring, and observability, which led him to work closely with security teams. Greg's involvement in Capture the Flag (CTF) competitions and platforms like TryHackMe and Hack The Box helped him hone his penetration testing skills.
Coming from a background in development and operations, Greg believes that his experience in these areas has given him an advantage in penetration testing.
