Speaker: Weasel

From the early days of the InfoSec industry to today there has been a constant seeping of deep-knowledge technologists into a slew of disciplines that are not primarily focused on the protection of enterprise assets.

This dialog will explore and question the contributors to the diminishing attractiveness of the enterprise as a logical career path for hackers. We will go over data that shows that shift from enterprises being a primary employer for hackers to being, at best, an early-career training ground. With things like specialized training, bug bounties, independent research, and certifications; it's feasible to develop a long InfoSec career that is funded by enterprise by-product without ever having ever held a security role in an enterprise.

We will go over some data that questions the benefits and validity of this model. There will be lots of audience interaction and the end result should be informative to all.
