Episode 149: Building a Security Stack That Works A Practitioner’s Perspective
In this episode, Brad and Spencer sit down with an experienced information security and risk manager to explore how they build and manage their security stack, choose the right tools, and win support from their team and leadership. We dig into the balance between technical defenses and business-driven risk management, from budgeting and vendor selection to measuring success and preparing for emerging threats. Whether you’re a hands-on practitioner or a security leader, you’ll walk away with practical insights on building stronger defenses and aligning security with business goals.Blog: https://offsec.blog/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@cyberthreatpovTwitter: https://x.com/cyberthreatpov Follow Spencer on social ⬇Spencer's Links: https://go.spenceralessi.com/links Work with Us: https://securit360.com

Episode 147: When to Accept the Risk
In this episode, we’re digging into one of the most overlooked parts of a penetration test, when it actually makes sense to not fix a finding. Not every vulnerability deserves equal treatment, and sometimes accepting the risk is the most mature decision a business can make. We’ll cover how to recognize those situations, avoid common pitfalls, and document your choices so they stand up to scrutiny.
