In this episode of The Hacker’s Cache, returning guest Josh Ragland shares how offensive security skills give blue teamers a serious edge. From building a hash-cracking rig to diving deep into C programming and assembly, Josh explains how understanding the attacker’s mindset can drastically cut triage time and help defenders spot threats others miss. We also get into the flaws of relying too heavily on AI in cybersecurity, discuss realistic detection testing without a red team, and reflect on the golden days of OSCP labs. Whether you're red, blue, or somewhere in between, this episode will challenge how you think about defense.
