Improv Comedy as a Social Engineering Tool - Dave Mattingly Derbycon 2017 (Hacking Illustrated Series InfoSec Tutorial Videos)

Improv Comedy as a Social Engineering Tool
Dave Mattingly
Derbycon 2017

The rules of improv comedy can apply to many social interactions, including bluffing your way to compromise a target. The constantly changing situations of improv are great practice for accepting unexpected circumstances, and happily going with the flow.

Dave Mattingly was a comedy and punk radio DJ, while he was a NASA rocket scientist. He ran a sci-fi and RPG publishing company, while writing anti-terrorism software for DHS and anti-fraud detection for the finance industry. He's an itinerant preacher, entrepreneur, award-winning speaker, and occasional improv comic. In short, he doesn't know what he wants to do when he grows up.
