Defeasible Reasoning

GRRCON is October 24th and 25th 2019 at DeVos Place in Grand Rapids, MI. It’s an information security and hacking conference that provides the Midwest InfoSec community with a fun atmosphere to come together and engage with like minded people.

James King is an Engineer, Consultant, OSINT ninja, Webmaster, CyberSecurity Guru, Cutter of Proverbial Gordian Knots and a former GRCC student. It’s AMA time with James as current GRCC students submit their questions to a real life hacker.

Aaron Bregg is the Director of Professional Outreach at Cloud Security Alliance West Michigan. We talk about Reed City, the movie War Games, go off on tangents, and collectively realize there’s not one single path to enter into the cyber security industry!

Nicole Scheffler is a Cisco Partner Engineering Strategy Leader, Passionate STEM Advocate, Community Activist, Speaker, and Teacher. Now, she’s also a podcast guest on the first episode of season 2 of Defeasible Reasoning. Welcome back!

The final episode of the academic year is upon us with another 1v1 Drew and Noah session. This time we explore the origin story of the guy who hosts this thing: Drew Rozema! From glitching Galaga to glitching (not so) young minds at GRCC, Rozema’s journey is actually… quite interesting!

Samantha Gignac is a Security Engineer working in Vulnerability Management at Spectrum Health. We figure out not everyone goes to college knowing what they want to do and most CIS programs have lots of dudes!

Dr. Jared DeMott is the owner of VDA Labs, Grand Rapids. Once an NSA Analyst and now a podcast guest, we learn about Jared’s journey though the information security world, professors who DID NOT believe in him, and discuss the gravitational pull of dark matter.

Matthew Carpenter is a Principal Researcher at Grimm (SMFS, Inc.). We dive deep into reverse engineering and learn a lot of Matt’s very cool journy through the hacking world.

It’s another 1v1 Drew and Noah episode and we talk about the great baby monitor hacking of 2018. Or is it? Learning all about the Internet of Things we consider how secure the new tech in our house may, or may not, be. Also… WE’RE TALKING TO YOUR BABY.
