During a webinar called The Hacker Mindset, a Red Team Researcher shared how you can use some of these tools for your own detection and prevention of breaches.

The hacker mindset can be characterized by three core values: a strong sense of curiosity, an adversarial attitude, and persistence.

Curiosity drives hackers to explore and understand systems, networks, and software in order to identify vulnerabilities.

Often hackers remind themselves that cybersecurity teams need to identify and remediate all vulnerabilities while a hacker needs to find only one.

If you understand the framework, you're one step ahead in finding the right tools that will help you to gain visibility into critical assets like user data, endpoints, servers, and SaaS applications - allowing you to find the next vulnerability before it's exploited by a hacker.
