No Password Required Podcast Episode 64 — DeMarcus Williams
DeMarcus Williams — Starbucks’ Security Pro Went from Cyber Competitions to Corporate Red Teaming DeMarcus Williams, a senior security engineer at Starbucks, has built a career defined by creativity, intuition, and persistence. With roles at the U.S. Department of Defense, AWS/Amazon, and now Starbucks, he specializes in offensive security, red teaming, and adversary emulation. In this episode, DeMarcus joins Jack Clabby of Carlton Fields, P.A. and Cyber Florida’s Sarina Gandy (guesting hosting) to share how his love of video games first sparked his cybersecurity journey—and how competitions like the Southeast Collegiate Cyber Defense Competition (SECCDC) cemented his path. DeMarcus opens up about overcoming imposter syndrome, the unique work-life balance he’s found at Starbucks, and why half of his red teaming comes down to gut instinct. He shares the difference between penetration testing and red teaming, what it’s like preparing for full-scale global operations, and the hacker mindset that still kicks in whenever he walks into a Starbucks café. In the Lifestyle Polygraph segment, Sarina poses the ultimate face-off: what’s the bigger moment—the walk-up to a boxing ring or to the DEF CON keynote stage? And, between Stone Cold, The Rock, and The Undertaker, who would dominate in a Capture the Flag competition? Follow DeMarcus on Twitter: https://x.com/medarkus_ @ medarkus_

Kurt, who now advised clients at Buchanan Ingersoll & Rooney, reflects on his 23+ years in the U.S. Marine Corps and how the adrenaline of cyber operations and policy has translated into the private sector, where he now helps clients navigate legal risk in an increasingly tech-driven world. He opens up about the difference between the proactive pace of military cyber law and the more reactive nature of corporate advisory work—and why that shift surprised him. He also shares how moving to the Tampa Bay area shattered his assumptions about where cyber talent lives, explaining why it’s one of the most vibrant and underrated cybersecurity communities in the country.

In the Lifestyle Polygraph segment, Kurt settles the ultimate Chicago food debate and declares a clear winner among the Windy City’s top three treats (will he choose the casserole masquerading as pizza?).

Kathy Collins — From AOL to Award-Winning Cuisine to High-Stakes Hacking Recorded live at the 2025 Sunshine Cyber Conference in Tampa, Jack Clabby of Carlton Fields, P.A., and resident cybersecurity expert Kayley Melton, Executive Director of Operations at the Cognitive Security Institute, sit down with Kathy Collins, Security Consultant at Secure Ideas. Kathy shares her extraordinary journey, which began at the AOL help desk, took a flavorful detour through award-winning kitchens, and ultimately landed in the high-stakes world of penetration testing. Kathy explains how the intensity, precision, and discipline of her 15 years in fine dining prepared her for the unpredictable demands of cybersecurity. She recounts a particularly memorable physical pen test involving a rainy golf cart getaway—and a very unimpressed police officer. The conversation highlights Kathy’s passion for community building through events like BSides Jacksonville, where she encourages newcomers to dive in and get involved. In the Lifestyle Polygraph segment, Kayley throws Kathy two horror-themed questions with bite: which movie soundtrack best scores a pen test, and which fictional villain she’d trust most on an engagement. Fava beans and a nice Chianti may follow a successful test. https://www.linkedin.com/in/kathyvcollins/
