Description
In this strong episode of the Exploring Information Security podcast, Chris Sanders CEO of Applied Network Defense and founder of the Rural Technology Fund joins me to question why passion is an infosec requirement.Chris (@chrissanders88) recently put up a blog post titled, The Cult of Passion. In this post he discusses the concept of passion being a requirement in information security. This is something I've railed against in the path. Like Chris I think it sets the bar higher for those trying to get in. They feel like they have to spend 18 hours of their day doing infosec related things. That is in fact not the case and there are plenty of successful people in infosec that don't eat, sleep, and breath infosec.In this episode we discuss:What is passion?What is some of the psychology around passion?Why passion isn't a reliable measure for hiring managers.What should people be focusing on instead of passion?
