Penetration tester team lead, Bulletproof Cyber Ltd

Gillian started her career directly within the security field, quickly becoming team leader of internal infrastructure testing and incident response teams. This naturally led to looking at how an attacker would gain access to these networks, thus opening the door to the world of social engineering.

Gillian has since then carried out numerous successful social engineering attacks on a wide range of sectors including banking, health and pharma. Gillian makes use of the full armory of social engineering tools available, quickly evolving and adapting to new changes and technologies, including phishing/smshing/vishing, impersonation, psychological manipulation and physical break-ins.
