Tactical Adversary Podcast is a long pending personal project. I was always intrigued by old school radio programmes and story telling, how it was able to connect deeply with people. Then there was the age of Podcast, it totally took over the story telling experience.
I always wanted to be a story teller. Maybe this is the right time to kick-start this with a podcast.
This is going to be a Podcast on 'Adversary Tradecraft and Stories of real-world Adversaries! in the context of cyber security.
Let me share some stories focused on the offensive side of cyber security, red teaming, adversary tactics, adversray attack simulation, survival tactics and everything Offensive!
Always feel free to reach out and share your feedback!
