Instructor

Charles Payne has worked in Digital Forensics and Incident Response for the last five years. During this time, he has witnessed and actively participated in the identification and remediation of numerous exploits.  He has actively led his team to hunt, teach, and explain the industry logic for controls that are implemented under frameworks such as NIST, DISA, and ISO.  Charles spends much of his free time teaching others about cybersecurity and learning new methods to advance the community’s understanding.  As an electrical engineer, Charles has firsthand experience with weatherizing generators.

Instructor Statement: “Alone we’re isolated. Together, we’re a community.”

“This mindset is a result of witnessing both sides work through their procedures. Blue teams, the defenders, are typically comprised of an internal group within a corporation, which tend to hold attack vector data well-guarded, unable to be shared with the community. On the other hand, red teams, the attackers, regularly share their failures and accomplishments within their community, enabling their target to become compromised that much faster.  The solution is not always something novel or innovative, it is often just better and more regular communication within the community.”
