Topic: "Maximizing your Pentest Partner Value"
Abstract: James Metzger of NeuroPace (https://www.neuropace.com) and Billens Crow and Ben Kaufman from Illumant (https://www.illumant.com) will present on PenTesting (penetration testing). James described the reason for this presentation starting with "people talking about pentesting as a very routine, checkbox procedure". But he says for him it's often more than that, "when I use it to better answer specific security considerations that I can related to medical device FDA submissions for cybersecurity as well as general information security compliance with HIPAA." Illumnant of Palo Alto will also participate in the presentation. The presentation will include these issues:
Best Practices for Scoping and Scheduling
Collaborating to Produce Valuable Reporting
Ongoing Relationship Management - Maximizing the Resources for Remediation

Billens Crow: For the past 8 years, Billens has helped Illumant’s clients coordinate meaningful SOWs, managed their projects from planning through findings review, and provided their staff with security awareness training.
Ben Kaufman: Ben kicked off his security career as a network security analyst in a security operations center for a cloud managed security provider in Houston Texas. His proclivity towards incident analysis led to a quick promotion to the Incident Response Escalation Team where he worked on only the most severe and vexing security incidents. Ben’s skill for development was recognized quickly as well with another promotion after he pioneered tools to better track SOC performance and efficiency. This promotion had Ben working with the Structured Analysis team where he focused on proactive manual analysis to identify threats for enterprise customers. He uses this knowledge to help Illumant’s clients get more out of their assessments and strategic technology purchases through purple team exercises. Ben is also a skilled hacker and loves rooting boxes. This led him to switch to the offensive side of security at Illumant. He is an Offensive Security Certified Professional.
