John Hammond, Co-Founder of JHT, hosts bi-monthly livestreams with our All-Star contributors featuring live demos of their work on JHT. All livestreams are simulcast on LinkedIn, Twitch, X and YouTube. Replays of streams below are from the “Live” Tab on John’s YouTube Channel.
Upcoming Livestreams
Fri April 3 @ 1:00 PM ET New Course Launch with Anton Ovrutsky
Ok… so we’re jumping on the AI bandwagon! But this one touches new ground. Instead of the same ol’ Intro to AI, AI-assisted pentesting, or yet another securing your LLMs course, Anton will teach you how to make your defensive lives easier and more efficient with a live demo of AI Cyber Defense Ops. This course will not help your employer replace you. Quite the contrary. You’ll get job-ready skills utilizing Claude for your cyber defense to make you an indispensable employee! It’s a great companion to the ConDef Ecosystem but also does wonders in your own environment.
