Details

##### 7:00 PM - Michael Way Social Engineering for good.

Landing a position in cybersecurity doesn’t always require a formal degree or years of coding. Sometimes, it just takes the right information and strategy. In this talk, we’ll explore how ethical social engineering and Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) techniques can help you stand out and land a job in cybersecurity — without breaking the law or crossing ethical lines.

About SecDSM: a monthly meetup group to network with other InfoSec pros and listen to short tech talks presented by your fellow members (or give a presentation yourself!) while enjoying some beer/drinks/food. No vendors, no sales pitches, no BS. The idea is to provide you actionable knowledge for you to take back to your $dayjob while building a top tier InfoSec community in the Des Moines area. If you have the desire to learn about real world InfoSec scenarios - get out of your comfort zone - and join us in a relaxed vendor free environment. No registration is required.
