I think this Star Trek II: The Wrath of Kahn movie clip is highly relevant to infosec and cyber security:



Why? Well, it has it all!

1/4
You have examples of:
incident command & response, repeated social engineering attempts, risk assessment, SOC analysts doing research, an experienced blue team responding professionally under fire, googling for info, OJT for a new team member, hacking back, credential dumps,
2/4
Industrial Control Systems, failure of password rotation policy leading to compromise, remote shells,“going kinetic”, and a junior sysadmin who doesn’t understand how they got pwned and banging on a keyboard in frustration.

3/4
You also get wholly justifiable screaming at a clueless manager with unreasonable deadlines and project scope creep.

PLUS a bitchin’ soundtrack for all this hacking.

I rest my case.

4/4
You can follow @troutman.
