In an industry that does so much to uncover and expose the mistakes of others. Which don't get me wrong is a valuable service in helping to increase security by the discovery of these vulnerabilities. It seems everyone though is very shy about pointing out their own failures! I?ve decided that I could help teach others valuable lessons I learned by showcasing three failures I?ve had in Blue Team. Three failures I?ve had in Red Team and three failures I?ve had in this community. I once read that a smart person learns from their mistakes. A wise person learns from the mistakes of others! So please take a moment to listen to me trying to help you become a little bit wiser! :)
