The Freedom Of Information Act, Ethical AI, And NerdCore Music - Stephanie Honore

The Security Repo

In this episode of the Security Repo Podcast, we talk with cybersecurity expert Stephanie Honore, about her journey into security, her work with the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), and her insights on ethical AI and chain of custody in data handling. She shares her experience building software for evidence management and her thoughts on the intersection of security and legal frameworks. We also explore her creative side as a "spycore" musician blending cybersecurity themes with nerdcore music.

Stephanie Honore, also known as Scarlett Danger, is a professional programmer, building applications by day, and a volunteer OSINT investigator by night for NGOs that combat human trafficking. She has been a member of WiCyS (Woman of Cybersecurity) since 2016 and attended Hacker On The Hill in Jan 2024. She began by attending the local hacker meetups and frequently attends cybersecurity conferences such as BSides and Texas Cybersecurity Summit. She recently started joining online chat communities on Discord and IRC where she is getting a lot of exposure to a different side of the security field.

Outside of work she likes making nerdcore music about security and intelligence ( a genre she has dubbed spycore) inspired greatly by performers like YTCracker, MC Frontalot, and Yung Innanet. You can listen to one of my songs here.
