In this interview, I visit with Bill Kimball and James Wright from Cyber Defense Technologies (CDT). If you are a veteran and in cyber, or would like to get into cyber, you will love this episode. These guys are so full of knowledge and have very deep experience. If you are looking for security services, penetration testing, or compliance work, this company would be a great option.
