Danny Akacki
Every Friday afternoon at 2pm Eastern, the Trimarc Security crew gets together to talk about all things hacking and information security. From how to get a job in the business to demystifying what hackers actually do, we try to find something for everyone.
Shaking some dust off as we return for Season 2, we take a dive into one of the many conference swag bags we get throughout any given year. What's worthwhile and what goes straight into the trash? Find out in this episode of WHAT'S IN THE BAG!?
Creator and host of the wildly popular hacker podcast Darknet Diaries, Jack Rhysider, joins us for an hour long chat on what it takes to take a small idea and turn it into an empire.

Speaker, Writer, Teacher, Ex-Criminal, Ed Miro is exactly the kind of person you bring home to meet and or threaten the parents.
Before there were thousands of security focused podcasts, including the one you're about to listen to, there was Paul Dot Com. A pioneer of InfoSec content creation, he took a simple idea of just shooting the breeze with his friends and grew it into an empire. To top it all off, he's still a hell of a nice guy.
Devon Kerr has been around for a very long time. From his beginnings as one of the premier Incident Responders of our industry to becoming founder and mission-owner of Elastic Labs. A custodian of secret histories, we gather round the dumpster fire that is Happy Hour and pump him for as much wisdom as we can.
Let this day live in infamy. Listen in real time as Danny gets kicked off Twitter and only realizes it as we go live with our guest, TrustedSec Principal Consultant and Pentester, Justin Bollinger. And to think Justin was worried we wouldn't have anything to talk about.
We really didn't have a plan going into this episode but when you're hanging with Steve Ragan, the plans make themselves. We ended discussing how to write/create content even if you've never done it before or think your thing isn't worth it. Enjoy! Music by https://www.bensound.com/free-music-for-videos
No hacker in the modern age has done more to help both the uninitiated noob and the seasoned expert learn by doing than the man called ippsec.

Teacher, author, podcaster, bear combat expert. His name? Phil Wylie. His mission? To suffer the fools of the Trimarc Happy Hour and remind us that we'll never be as cool as him.
Danny is off...somewhere...so it's up to Dev, Jim, and Brandon to hold down the fort and have a nice, quite, afternoon on stream. OR Brandon can tempt the Demo Gods wrath and do some live stunting.

IntelligenceX is a subscription based intel service. Recently, they voluntarily reported one of their users to the FBI along with that users data. Did they do it in good faith or did they get insulted online and try to settle a score? We're gonna talk about it.

If we left our understanding of hacking up to Hollywood and news pundits, you'd swear every hacker graduated from Hogwarts School of Cyber Spells. Skills impossible to grasp as Muggles. In the first part of this series, we take the mystery out of hacking and lay a baseline for what it really takes to hack the planet. More MAN pages, less finger snapping.
Part 2 of our Shmoocast finds us chatting with Privacy Expert Whitney Merrill, Security Weekly heartthrob Tyler Robinson, and Trimarc Superstar Consultant Thomas Hutchison.
