Many are familiar with cybersecurity penetration testing – ethical hacking to uncover digital weaknesses. But what about the real-world threats to your company's physical security? How confident are you in your locks, cameras, and physical security measures to protect your sensitive data or equipment?
In this episode, Robby speaks with Brian Harris, a leading expert in physical penetration testing as a part of Black Teaming. Black Teaming is a type of security assessment that simulates an attack on an organisation, including tactics such as physical intrusion and social engineering. Brian, Chief Instructor for the Covert Access Team, has conducted hundreds of these physical pen tests, helping organisations identify and fix vulnerabilities that could lead to corporate espionage and other threats.
They provide real-world examples, discuss the limitations of common security measures, and touch on methods for improvement. These methods can include gamifying security by incentivizing employees to take an active role in physical security, for instance by keeping an eye on suspicious activity in the office.

In this week's episode, Robby talks with his friend Keven Hendricks, a law enforcement veteran with extensive experience in dark web and cryptocurrency investigations. They explore topics like dark web forums, cryptocurrency's role in illegal activities, and the difficulties law enforcement encounters when monitoring these areas, especially with privacy coins like Monero.
Keven emphasizes the need for companies to take a ‘boots on the ground’ approach to monitoring dark web activities, rather than depending only on third-party tools. «Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer,» right? Keven also touches on the potential value of having a ‘Chief Intelligence Officer’ (CINO) to actively investigate emerging threats.
