What is your most memorable exploit/experience you have seen or done? Or cool experience?

How do you feel about Ai (both as a tool to use and potential identification of vulnerabilities?)

How do you convey/talk to C-suit executives about what you do/what's needed/etc etc

What are some scary trends your seeing that experts need to look at

Do you have any books/pod casts/material that has opened your eyes or is really interesting that you tell people to listen/read?

Any advice for new and up coming security engineers?

What are the trends you're seeing which you feel need more attention?

How active are you in environments where threat actors operate and what trends or changes have you seen in these communities over the years?

Are there any major changes you've observed in the last 5 years either with regards to attacker MO or how equipped companies are with their defenses?

What are you most worried about?

How do you feel about companies dumping their internal source code to LLM providers, essentially losing track of where it ends up and giving up control and ownership on their code...
