Casey Smith (SubTee): Living Off the Land, Deception Technology, and the Evolution of Offensive Security
About this episode
In this episode of The Phillip Wylie Show, Phillip Wylie sits down with offensive security researcher, educator, and entrepreneur Casey Smith (SubTee) to discuss his journey into cybersecurity, the evolution of offensive tradecraft, and why deception technology is becoming one of the most effective defensive strategies in today's threat landscape.
Casey shares how he transitioned from systems administration into security through application testing and enterprise security projects before becoming widely recognized for his pioneering research into Living Off the Land Binaries (LOLBins). The conversation also explores how Windows security has evolved over the years, the impact of application whitelisting, and why modern defenders should be thinking differently about detection.
The discussion wraps up with Casey's latest venture, where he is helping organizations leverage deception technologies while mentoring the next generation of cybersecurity professionals.
