by Tripwire Guest Authors on April 25, 2018

Kim Crawley: What is your role in cybersecurity and how did you get into it?

Evie Andrew: I guess I’m just your average delivery penetration tester! I do the bread-and-butter stuff that most client-facing pen testers do, from web apps, to Windows networks, to the boring audit stuff. I guess the thing I wake up in the morning for, though, is to do the creative side of offensive security.
