Thanks to our podcast sponsor, Pentera Pentera is the category leader for Automated Security Validation, allowing every organization to test with ease the integrity of all cybersecurity layers including their ransomware readiness, unfolding true, current security exposures at any moment, at any scale. In this episode: Why do we call security practitioners who leave a job to go work for a security vendor, "going to the dark side?"

Over the years what other small steps have we seen that have made improvements in the vendor/practitioner divide?
