Connor O’Lairy helps cybersecurity professionals understand the importance of establishing and maintaining secure configuration baselines. His content looks at how configuration security can complement patching efforts, reduce the attack surface, and mitigate the risk of exploitation. Connor focuses on creating content that is easy to understand, while still being rich in information and practical to implement.
The velocity at which digital adversaries transition from discovering a flaw to launching a full-scale attack has surpassed the human capacity for manual verification and traditional patching cycles.
