Defiant’s Top 5 Spooky Security Jokes

Among a plethora of reasons to enjoy working here, we at Defiant are particularly vocal about our love for the remote office. A team spread across timezones and continents might sound like a challenge in group cohesion, but even though we’re divided geographically, we’ve forged a great culture that a breakroom ping-pong table just can’t hold a candle to.

Since we didn’t exactly have cubicles to decorate for the occasion, today we invited the team to participate in a Halloween party via video conference. As part of the festivities, we held a team contest for the best security-themed or Halloween-themed jokes, and it was filled with just as many eye-rolling puns and dad jokes as you’d expect. Still, we all shared a laugh and decided to share some of the favorites. Enjoy!
