🔐 Lockpicking Contest
Think you've got steady hands? Prove it. We're running a timed lockpicking challenge with prizes for the fastest picks. No experience required—just curiosity and a little finesse.
👕 Tacky Attire Contest
We're talking pajamas. Hawaiian shirts. That hoodie you refuse to throw away. The weirder, the better. Most creative outfit wins a prize. Bonus points if it somehow relates to cybersecurity.
🎲 Classic Board Game Spread
From strategy games to party favorites, we've got something for every vibe. Whether you're here to dominate or just vibe, there's a table with your name on it.
🍕 Food & Drinks On Us
We'll keep you fueled. Snacks, pizza, beverages—handled. You just show up.
💡 Tip of the Month
Skip the Airport WiFi
That free network at your gate? It's a hacker's playground. Use your phone's hotspot instead—your data plan is cheaper than a breach.

** 🎙️ Red Teams, Real Threats & Why Testing Once a Year Won't Cut It
------------------------------------------------------------
What happens when a Navy cyber warfare officer brings military-grade red teaming to the private sector?
This week on The Audit, Eric and Nick sit down with Foster Davis from Breech Bits—a former Naval officer who spent half his career fighting pirates on the high seas and the other half running covert cyber ops in dark buildings.
Foster breaks down why traditional penetration tests go stale faster than last week's leftovers, and how continuous red teaming is the only way to stay ahead of attackers who never take a day off.
