IT career paths: Working for yourself is an attainable dream (if you want to stop working for the man)
Top 9 ways to prevent hacking in your enterprise (seriously, you can if you get these basics in check)
How to form a functional enterprise IT security committee (okay, I use the word ‘functional’ loosely, but it’s nowhere but up from here right!?)
In the meantime, check out my website for links to all of my other information security-related content.

Well, in the spirit of my book Hacking For Dummies (be sure to check out the new 4th edition), here are some tips I’ve written for my friends at TechTarget and Acunetix on some important web and mobile application security issues you need to be tuned in to beyond all the noise that’s out there:Don’t Let Problems Stop You From Carrying Out Web Application Testing (before ‘Too Scared to Scan‘ was cool 😉
Mobile app software: Avoid the perpetual cycle of insecurity
Hybrid security: Beyond pen testing and static analysis
Mac Malware Underscores Why You Can’t Ignore Web Security Threats
Do You Scan with Network Security Controls Enabled or Disabled?
Take Care in Handling the Results of Your Web Application Testing
Much more to come on web and mobile security testing…It’s what I love doing and I’ve learned a tremendous amount while doing it over the past decade.

Client Testimonials
“A business associate referred our company to Principle Logic when we were seeking a resource to perform vulnerability /penetration testing for our external and internal networks. We found Kevin Beaver to be professional, well informed, and easy to work with. His testing did not disrupt our networks, and his progress updates were timely.
His final report was very thorough and included security recommendations for our network environment. The executive leadership was so impressed with Kevin’s security expertise, they have extended their agreement to continue to perform periodic testing. We highly recommend Kevin Beaver and Principle Logic as a resource for network security testing.”
