Researchers have found that when we make mistakes, we tend to pay closer attention and learn more quickly, reducing our chances of making them again. Principal Security Consultant Adam Compton shares how much he’s learned from… well, many mistakes.

If you’ve ever found yourself in the uncomfortable situation of explaining an error during your InfoSec career, this webinar is for you. Compton will share stories from his 20 years of InfoSec experience, his stumbles along the way, and how every mistake has made him better at his craft. Like a phoenix rising from the ashes, Compton has grown stronger with each blunder, and now he wants to teach you how to persevere.

Even if you’re new to the industry or are looking for a way in, Compton will provide insight on how to combat imposter syndrome, some typical early career hurdles, and how to make the best of bad situations.
