Awesome Material Josh. I have no experience in cyber security. This really helps.

Greatest video and questions keep up the great work

Nice explanation. I always got confused on the differences of risk, threat, and vulnerability.

Thanks for your sharing. I would like to see the technical interview, which includes some commands test (maybe Linux) or Scripting based on the interviews you still remember or what you would do if you were hiring a manager.
I think you have both CS (developer) and Cyber security (security) sides. So it is exciting, and I will encounter some when I finish my master's next March and change my jobs.

Looking forward to the series. Would help to eliminate phrases such as "like" and "kind of".

Please share a interview video on Mitra attack and cyber kill chain

[Keyumiz]

If a host has the IP address information stored in browser or OS cache, it won't be affected by DNS poisoning because it modifies actual cache on the DNS server, right? Do you know how long the browser and OS cache might remain until a host needs to do another dns query?
