This one breaks format — no CVE roundup today. Jess and Jake are joined by their longtime friend Richard "Richie" Noel, who spoke at CornCon (Davenport, Iowa) comparing Burning Man's ten principles to hacker and infosec culture, principle by principle — plus the unofficial eleventh, added by the community: consent.
Topics: hiring practices in cybersecurity and whether companies should train career-changers with transferable skills instead of requiring years of niche experience; DEF CON's code-of-conduct lawsuit, which ended in summary judgment for Jeff Moss; a candid conversation about unwanted touching, harassment, and intoxication-related safety incidents at security conferences and Burning Man regional events, and why bystander intervention and conference buddy systems matter; and gifting culture as a shared value between Burning Man and open-source contribution.
No fear-mongering, no vendor speak — just three infosec veterans talking about the parts of this industry's culture that actually need fixing.
