FORTIFYING CYBERSECURITY SPIRITS.

This is BarCode, a high powered podcast that dives into the technology, personalities, criminals, and heroes that have come to define modern security across the globe.

Conceived in 2020 during the isolation of the COVID pandemic, Chris sought to recreate the vital social and educational elements of cybersecurity conferences, meetups, and networking events that the industry sorely missed. He envisioned a laidback yet enlightening space where people could learn directly from the foremost experts in the field.

Thus, BarCode was born – a no pressure atmosphere welcoming the cyber community to pull up a virtual barstool and soak up insights from an ever-evolving slate of the industry’s most elite practitioners and thought leaders.

Discussions explore the full spectrum of today’s most pressing cyber challenges and emerging trends. The goal is to symbiotically share the guests’ wealth of hard-earned experience across a wide array of security knowledge and best practices, ultimately helping listeners strengthen their organizations’ cyber defenses.
