We’re known for hacking things for fun: computers, software, modems, ATMs, planes, guns, humans, policies and processes. Movies may feature us in roller skates with funky haircuts and psychedelic visualizations of “cyberspace,” but we’ve somehow managed to build an industry on what was - and still is - a hobby for many. The information security field has evolved, so has our community. That’s a good thing. This talk will explore how - today - we are all hackers in our own way, with an ability to drive impact and affect change
