Hi, my name is Roy
I work as a Red Teamer for Shell CyberDefence
What I'm trying to do every single day is
I'm trying to break our own defences
What I’m doing is, I'm performing Red Teaming
assessments in which we simulate an attack
as a real-life adversary could perform on us
as realistically as we potentially can
We're training ourselves to make sure if we're ever hit
by one of these adversaries, we are ready
and we can fend off an attack like that as well as possible
so that it doesn't have any impact on us.
Something that definitely
stands out from all the organizations that I've worked for,
That is, within Shell, you have a lot of different co-workers,
but they all have one thing in common
everyone is an absolute expert
and very passionate about what they do.
I definitely think that Shell is a very interesting organization to work for,
If you really like to challenge yourself, and to challenge
an organization that already has a very high level of maturity,
then I definitely think this would be something that is very
interesting for you as well
