Jason writes at the intersection of cybersecurity and education, giving readers guidance that is both deeply researched and immediately useful in the real world. His work bridges technical detail with clear, practical explanations, helping students, practitioners, and leaders understand not just what to do, but why it matters. Across his books, articles, and audio content, he focuses on turning complex security concepts into concrete steps, examples, and decision points that readers can apply the same day. His books have been adopted in university cybersecurity programs worldwide, supporting courses on foundational security, risk management, and certification preparation—and every purchase directly helps sustain the Bare Metal Cyber website, content, and services.

Cyber Talks is a video podcast series from Bare Metal Cyber where I sit down with security practitioners, leaders, and solution providers to dig into real-world topics they care about most. Each session is a conversational, recorded interview built around a topic proposed by the guest — from technical deep dives and case studies to program lessons learned and thought leadership. Any cybersecurity professional or company that wants to share a meaningful, vendor-sane presentation with the community is welcome to apply. If you’d like to be featured on Cyber Talks, complete the form below and propose your topic, and we’ll follow up with the next steps.

Cybersecurity is more than tools and threats — it’s the people who choose this path, and I’d love to hear how you found yours. If you’re a student, early-career professional, veteran, career changer, or seasoned practitioner, you’re invited to share your story for a short, relaxed video conversation that will be featured across Bare Metal Cyber channels. Sign up to share a bit about your background, where you are in your journey, and what you’d like to talk about, and I’ll follow up to schedule an interview. Every path into cyber is different, and yours might be exactly the story someone else needs to hear.

Society of Cyber Professionals

This is a free-to-join, private LinkedIn community for cybersecurity professionals—practitioners, auditors, analysts, educators, and leaders—focused on signal over noise and real-world standards. We share concise lessons learned, templates and checklists, focused questions with context, sanitized summaries of detections that actually reduced alerts, control mappings that passed audits, incident retrospectives, secure SDLC patterns, privacy trade-offs that worked, and metrics that influenced decisions. Membership is application-based to maintain high quality: no spam, no scraping, no off-topic promotion—just curated resources, low-noise hiring threads, and professionally moderated discussions. If that sounds like your kind of peer group, apply to join the community.
