Red teamers arrested conducting a penetration test
The story of today’s guests is ripped straight from the headlines. Gary DeMercurio and Justin Wynn, both of the company Coalfire, were arrested at the Dallas County Courthouse while doing red team pentesting for the State of Iowa’s judicial branch. Their story is fascinating, and they discuss that fateful night as well as ways in which similar incidents could be avoided in the future. You can’t be too timid as a red teamer, they say. “If you’re bragging as a red teamer about how you’ve never been caught, you’re not pushing the operation as far as you should. You SHOULD be caught sometimes.”
