Overview

Kordia’s independent cyber consultancy – Aura Information Security have a team of ethical hackers. They conduct regular penetration tests for businesses to help identify vulnerabilities before they can be exploited by cyber-criminals.

In this session, Aura Information Security GM Patrick Sharp will introduce Principal Security Consultant Mike Haworth to share his experience as an ethical hacker.
