Kyser Clark sits down with senior penetration tester Spencer Alessi to discuss a skill that separates top-tier pentesters from the rest—client communication. While technical prowess is essential, Spencer shares how clear, proactive communication can make or break a pentest engagement, impact client trust, and even determine career growth. They also dive into the common struggle of pentesting ultra-secure environments, how to navigate “quiet” assessments, and why 99% of vulnerabilities don’t actually matter. Whether you’re an aspiring pentester or a seasoned professional, this conversation offers valuable insights into what it really takes to succeed in offensive security.
