Offensive security is an essential part of a cybersecurity program, but it is often misunderstood, which could lead to not achieving the goals of an organization. An example of a lack of understanding is requesting the wrong type of assessment, such as an adversary emulation instead of a pentest.
This event brings together professionals, experts, researchers, and InfoSec enthusiasts to discuss cybersecurity and demonstrate real-world attacks to the community. This event is where conversations about the next big thing in cybersecurity are happening.
There are many resources to learn how to become a pentester but the lack of experience can be an obstacle when getting that dream role in pentesting. The Pentester Blueprint coauthor Phillip will share ways to get experience and demonstrate the experience and skills that are helpful in getting started in a pentesting career.

Technology is changing the audit scene exponentially in today's ever changing business environment, creating both possibilities and major disruptions. Traditional audit techniques are quickly going out of style as companies produce larger and more complicated datasets. The incorporation of artificial intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing auditing procedures, strengthening accuracy, and increasing efficiency. The agile auditing methodology is currently being adopted by auditors on a growing scale. Significantly, (AI) has become a major disruptor with the potential to completely transcend the accounting and assurance industries.
Pacific Hacker Conference is an information security and hacking conference gathers the brightest minds in cybersecurity and hacking from Silicon Valley and beyond. Focusing on cutting-edge techniques, research, and developments, we aim to create an environment where knowledge is shared and connections are made. Our audience ranges from security professionals, researchers, and ethical hackers to industry decision-makers. We keep the conference small, allowing us to provide what other Cons leave out.
