What this card says
Short answer
Start with ethics. Say you use offensive tools only on systems you own or have written permission to test.
Example
“In training I use a host-only VirtualBox lab and my own AWS Free Tier account. I never scan a client or café Wi-Fi.”
Say it in the interview
“Before any tool, I check scope and authorisation. I test only what I own or have written permission for.”
Why it matters
It shows you are safe to hire. Skipping ethics is a red flag.
