Let’s plug in.
1. I Read Your Emails T-Shirt
You know that look people give you when they think you’re up to something? This shirt leans into that exact energy. It’s equal parts snarky and honest—because yes, Karen, we do know what you did last session.
2. Pentest Mode On T-Shirt
For the ethical hackers who know the thrill of permissioned chaos. Whether you’re simulating breaches or breaking down weak auth flows, this one tells the world: you’re not a villain—you’re just better at being the villain than the actual villains.
3. Trust Me, I’m A Cyber Security Analyst T-Shirt
Said no one ever… until now. This tee blends dry humor with the exact level of suspicion that makes cybersecurity folks both feared and loved in tech teams. A perfect addition to your on-call rotation wardrobe.
4. Your Password Was Too Short So I Changed It T-Shirt
If you’ve ever had to explain why “123456” is a terrible idea (again), this one’s for you. Let your shirt do the public service announcement—because apparently, your security briefings aren’t enough.
5. I’m The Guy Your Firewall Warned You About
Slick, slightly cocky, and 100% badge-worthy. If you walk into rooms and break things (in a secure way), then congratulations—you are the threat model. And this shirt just makes that official.
6. Your Ports Were Open So I Invited Myself In
Just a friendly reminder that bad configuration equals bad day. This one’s got the perfect amount of smug. A classic for red teamers and anyone who’s tired of seeing port 3389 open to the internet.
7. Cybersecurity: The Few. The Proud. The Paranoid.
Paranoia isn’t just a feeling—it’s a professional skillset. This shirt is your honorary badge of honor for always assuming the worst. Because in cybersecurity, being suspicious is being responsible.
8. Not All Heroes Wear Capes—Some Work in Cybersecurity
Move over, Avengers. The real defenders are in hoodies, sipping caffeine at 3AM, chasing alerts. This tee pays tribute to the unsung heroes who keep ransomware out and data safe.
9. Sniff Networks, Not Drugs
Packet sniffing has never sounded cooler. For the Wireshark wizards and PCAP nerds out there, this shirt is peak hacker dad joke—and that’s exactly what makes it brilliant.
10. Let Me Guess… You Clicked the Link
Every blue teamer’s worst nightmare wrapped in a casual shrug. This tee is perfect for when you’re too tired to explain why clicking on “Free iPhone 14 Pro” was a bad idea—again.
