Ever wondered what it's like to be responsible for the cybersecurity of a sports team? How about when that sports team is one of the world's most successful Formula One teams? I can't describe how excited we are to share this interview. This interview is basically two huge F1 nerds who happen to also be cybersecurity veterans asking everything they've always wanted to know about what it takes to secure an F1 team.

For the folks out there that aren't familiar with this sport, Formula One is arguably the fastest, most watched, and most international automotive racing sport today. In the 2024 season, the racing series will feature ten teams traveling to 24 race tracks located in 21 different countries. Also, did you know that only two countries get more than one race? Italy gets to host two Grand Prix, and the United States gets to host three.

A HUGE thanks to Keeper Security and Darren Guccione for making this interview possible. This isn't a sponsored interview, but it was Keeper's PR team that pitched the idea for this interview to us, and as F1 fans, we're super grateful they did!

Quantum computers are scaling rapidly. Soon, they will be powerful enough to solve previously unsolvable problems. But they come with a global challenge: fully-realized quantum computers will be able to break some of the most widely-used security protocols in the world. Dr. Vadim Lyubashevsky will discuss how quantum-safe cryptography protects against this potential future.

The top priority on the CIS Critical Security Controls list has never changed: inventory and control of enterprise assets. Yet it remains one of the most challenging controls to implement, much less master. The refrain, "you can't secure what you don't know about" is as old as information security itself.

Complicating this task is the fact that improving asset management isn't an aspiration unique to the security team. IT, finance, facilities, and other groups within large enterprises are concerned with this as well. This often leads to challenges: should all these groups attempt to standardize on one common asset database or CMDB? Or should security go their own way, and purchase their own asset management tool?

Answering these questions would be a lot easier if we had someone with an IT asset management (ITAM) perspective, and fortunately, we do! Jeremy Boerger of Boerger Consulting joins us to help us understand the IT perspective, so we can understand if there are opportunities for security and IT to help each other out, or at least find some common ground!

I often say that it isn't the concepts or ideas in cybersecurity that are bad, but the implementations of them. Sometimes the market timing is just wrong and the industry isn't ready for a particular technology (e.g. enterprise browsers). Other times, the technology just isn't ready yet (e.g. SIEMs needed better database technology and faster storage). Since the ideas are solid, we see these concepts return after a few years.

Application allowlisting is one of these product categories. Threatlocker has been around since 2017 and is now a late stage startup that has achieved market fit. We chat with the company's CEO and founder, Danny Jenkins to find out how they learned from the mistakes made before them, and differentiate from the technology some of us remember from the late 2000s and early 2010s.

Join Swimlane CISO, Mike Lyborg and Security Weekly’s Mandy Logan as they cut through the AI peanut butter! While Generative AI is the not-so-new hot topic, it's also not the first time the cybersecurity industry has embraced emerging technology that can mimic human actions. Security automation and its ability to take action on behalf of humans have paved the way for generative AI to be trusted (within reason). The convergence and maturity of these technologies now have the potential to revolutionize how SecOps functions while force-multiplying SOC teams.

As security monitoring has gotten more mature over the years, remediating security vulnerabilities is still stuck in the dark ages requiring mountains of CVE reports and thousands of manual tasks to be done by network engineers at the wee hours of the nights and weekends. Cyber resilience requires a more continuous approach to remediation, one that does not depend on manual work but also one that can be trusted not to cause outages.

Many cybersecurity experts are calling recent attacks on healthcare more sophisticated than ever. One attack disrupted prescription drug orders for over a third of the U.S. and has cost $1.5 billion in incident response and recovery services. Separately, an operator of over 140 hospitals and senior care facilities in the U.S. was also victimized. These attacks are becoming all too common. Disruptions can lead to life-and-death situations with massive impacts on patient care. All industries, especially healthcare, have to better prepare for ransomware attacks. Are you ready to turn the tables on threat actors? Marty Momdjian, Semperis EVP and General Manager provides advice on how hospitals can regain the upper hand.

In this interview we explore the new and sometimes strange world of redteaming AI. I have SO many questions, like what is AI safety?

We'll discuss her presence at Black Hat, where she delivered two days of training and participated on an AI safety panel.

We'll also discuss the process of pentesting an AI. Will pentesters just have giant cheatsheets or text files full of adversarial prompts? How can we automate this? Will an AI generate adversarial prompts you can use against another AI? And finally, what do we do with the results?

• PyRIT AI redteaming tool
• Microsoft's AI redteaming guide

We chat with Sounil Yu, co-founder of LLM access control startup, Knostic. We discuss both the experience of participating in Black Hat's startup competition, and what his company, Knostic, is all about. Knostic was one of four finalists for Black Hat's Startup Spotlight competition and was announced as the winner on August 6th.

Remember 20 years ago? When we were certain SIEMs would grant our cybersecurity teams superpowers? Or 10 years ago, when we were sure that NGAV would put an end to malware as we knew it? Or 15 years ago, when we were sure that application control would put an end to malware as we knew it? Or 18 years ago, when NAC would put an end to unauthorized network access?

Why do we keep thinking that the next vendor offering is going to solve all our problems? In this interview, we talk with Fred Wilmot about the hard work of building effective processes and resilient architectures that will actually yield reductions in risk and detection/response capabilities that actually work.

We'll discuss shifts in thinking that can move us past the latest distractions, and keep security teams focused on work that moves the needle. Fred may also mention his past transgressions against the industry and what he's doing to "wipe out the red from his ledger".

There's plenty of content out there detailing how vendors fall short:

• scummy, aggressive sales tactics
• overuse of jargon and buzzwords
• sneaky sales tactics
• dumping on competitors
• products that fall far short of claims
• ambulance chasing

So what should they doing? In this episode, we chat with Dani Wolff, about how marketers can adopt the skills and mindsets of security researchers to improve GTM strategies, without resorting to awful tactics. Drawing from extensive experience in qualitative interviews and collaborations with enterprise security executives and researchers, Dani will uncover how the innate curiosity and analytical prowess of researchers can dismantle unhealthy habits within vendor organizations.

We'll also discuss Dani's various projects, including the WTF Did I Just Read podcast, CyberNest, and CyberSynapse. Dani will explain how these are all designed to address the gap between vendors and buyers in the cybersecurity industry.

The emergence of generative AI has caused us to rethink things on two fronts:

1. how we consume threat detection data, as defenders
2. how we need to shift our thinking and approaches to prepare for attackers' newfound GenAI capabilities

But wait - is GenAI even useful for defenders or attackers? We'll dive deep into the state of AI as it pertains to security operations, just as Gartner announces that AI is hitting the trough of disillusionment. What better time to dispel the hype and focus on where real progress can be made?

Edward Wu thinks so! Understandably so, as his startup, Dropzone.ai is making a big bet on generative AI to change the face (and pace) of security operations.

We'll talk about what has changed here, and I have so many questions:

• after many generations of AI/ML technology in security, is the current gen really that dramatically different?
• Dropzone is far from the only startup with the same idea here, how will they differentiate?
• Is the problem that we need more help than we can possibly hire, or are we fundamentally doing something wrong in security operations?
• Specifically, what is this tech doing to help?

Finally, we'll wrap by talking about where this tech goes next, and can we get there with current technology, or are we dependent on more breakthroughs from companies like OpenAI, Anthropic, and Meta?

This week, on Enterprise Security Weekly, we've got:

1. Identity Security gets more funding

I'm always thrilled to chat with ex-analysts, and Henrique Teixeira can cover a lot of ground with us on the topic of identity management and governance. The more I talk to folks about IAM/IGA, the more I'm shocked at how little has changed. If anything, it seems like we've gone backwards a bit, with the addition of cloud SaaS, mobile devices, and shadow IT. Identity is one of the most common entry points for attacks, so we've got to do better as an industry here.

We'll cover a variety of topics in this interview, including:

• Why Henrique chose to go to Saviynt from Gartner
• Vendor risk concentration in identity
• Resilience in identity, especially when depending on a SaaS IdP
• Identity attack evolution (and the creation of the ITDR category)
• What's working in identity to move things forward, and what is holding us back

We all might be a little worn out on this topic, but there's no escaping it. Executives want to adopt GenAI and it is being embedded into nearly every software product we use in both our professional and personal lives. In this interview, Anurag joins us to discuss how his company evaluated and ultimately integrated AI-based technologies into their products. We discuss:

• What to be aware of when deploying GenAI
• Key use cases and successes organizations are having with GenAI
• Some of the risks to be aware of
• How to prepare employees for GenAI
• Best practices to prepare for evolving threats

For decades, security teams have been focused on preventing and detecting threats, only to find themselves buried so deep in alerts, they can't detect anything at all! We clearly need a different approach, which will be the topic of our conversation today with Marty. We'll be discussing a shift in philosophy and tactics. We'll discuss whether SecOps has a hoarding problem, and possible paths out of the current situation preventing today's teams from successfully detecting attacks. Finally, we'll discuss the impact AI has on all this (if any).

We've made a slight tweak to the news format, only focusing on the most interesting funding and acquisition stories. As always, you can go check out Mike Privette's Return on Security newsletter for the full list of funded and acquired companies every week.

This week, we discuss two $100M+ rounds, from Huntress and Semperis. We also discuss NetSPI's acquisition of Hubble, and the future of the CAASM market.

We focus on the important of detection engineering, echoing some of Martin Roesch's thoughts from our interview with him just before the news. One story is from the excellent DFIR report, a website and newsletter you should absolutely be subscribed to if detection engineering is important to you. The other story is from Thinkst, and showcases their ability to create file share honeypots with file listings that can now be tailored to specific industries.

We discuss the results of some polls that RSnake ran on Twitter, to get feedback from folks on what they think about these models where CISOs are reportedly getting kickbacks for buying products from companies they advise.

We also discuss the latest whistleblower insights about Microsoft and the state of security there, and the recent Polyfill.io incident that targeted over 100k websites with malware.

Finally, we spend the rest of the news segment discussing the current state of Generative AI, from our own perspectives, but also through the lens of Bruce Schneier's latest blog post, a year old post from Marc Andreesen, and a rage-fueled rant from an angry Aussie.

Traditional approaches to access management are no longer sufficient to safeguard enterprise security. Tim will explain why the most effective approach to modern enterprise security requires a Zero Trust model that extends beyond just access to encompass every action, no matter how minor.

Tim will describe the importance of implementing a Zero Trust framework that evaluates each command, query, and configuration change in real-time, and how that delivers the most effective and complete security solution. Doing so involves the application of fine-grained authorization policies that adapt to the context of the user, the sensitivity of the action, and the prevailing threat landscape.

Traditional IGA solutions are not risk-focused by design, and as audit and compliance focus continues to expand beyond core ERP systems and into line of business apps and point solutions, organizations must plan holistically how to address risk across their application landscape. It’s never too late to start kicking off your risk reduction journey, and utilizing an innovative, unified platform for both identity and access risk governance has significant, compounding benefits and helps organizations realize faster time to value, lower TCO and longer term consistent risk exposure reduction. Ensuring access to all of your business-critical applications is provisioned seamlessly, efficiently, and cost-effectively while meeting risk, audit and compliance requirements should be the primary goal of any identity and access risk governance solution implementation.

Cyberattacks, fraud and breaches, we’ve all studied them, and we are all aware that identity is under attack. And if we thought it was bad up until now, we haven't fully seen the impact of GenAI based identity attacks. Going beyond just Deepfakes, GenAI-powered malicious services such as FraudGPT, lets novices craft targeted and sophisticated attacks that bypass common IAM and security controls. Identity and security leaders must brace themselves for an increase in the volume, velocity and variety of attacks ("the three V's:). In this talk, former Gartner analyst David Mahdi and CIO of Transmit Security cover what you need to know about GenAI these attacks, and what you can do about it. Specifically, the types of attacks fraudsters are conducting across the identity lifecycle, insight into their tactics and services, and finally recommendations for a path forward.

Several recent trends underscore the increasing importance of Know Your Business (KYB) practices in today's business landscape. One significant trend is the rise in financial crimes, including money laundering, fraud, and terrorist financing. Technological advancements have transformed the way businesses operate, leading to increased digitization, online transactions, and remote customer interactions. While these developments offer numerous benefits, they also create opportunities for criminals to exploit vulnerabilities. Higher value remote transactions are performed at higher volumes. In addition, government programs such as the PPP program created a need for onboarding business quickly. This created a influx of fraudulent entities and claim who are now exploiting other channels. The convergence of these trends highlights the critical role of KYB in safeguarding businesses, ensuring regulatory compliance, and fostering trust among stakeholders in today's dynamic and interconnected business environment.

"Identity security has been around forever though", you might be thinking. Allow me to clarify. Identity is the largest cybersecurity product category, but most of it is focused on identity governance, authentication, multi-factor, etc. Very little of it is focused on operational identity security. It's this trend, where we recently (within the last 2 years) started seeing the ITDR (Identity Threat Detection and Response) acronym that we'll be focused on today. Particularly:

• Why is this trend/spike occurring now?
• What was or is missing to do identity security properly?
• What does the future of securing identity look like?

And it's difficult to do better for this conversation than Will Lin. He spent the last half decade as a VC. On a daily basis, he was looking at the big picture of cybersecurity markets and trends. He discussed security challenges with CISOs and other security buyers on a regular basis, both directly and through the Security Tinkerers community he founded. All this led to a decision to quit the VC world to become a founder himself. Of all the categories he could have chosen, he chose identity security, and that's why we're happy to have him for this conversation.

We start off discussing the latest round of fundings, centered largely around data security and securing LLM use. This dovetails into a discussion about marketing language and how difficult it can be for buyers to work out what the latest round of early stage startups are doing.

Next, we discuss Cloudflare and Bugcrowd's acquisitions, as well as Synopsys's divestiture of its appsec portfolio.

From here, we dive into a raft of new features across both IT and cybersecurity products, like Azure, Dashlane, LastPass, and PagerDuty. Discussing Huntress's active remediation feature triggers a conversation about this latest product trend: vendors seem to think buyers are ready for fully automated remediation actions. We're not so sure they are.

To wrap up the cybersecurity coverage, Brandon Dixon has an interesting tutorial regarding a Security Copilot use case that looks a LOT like the default phishing enrichment use case that has been used for every SOAR POC ever. To clarify, this is a great piece in that it is all practical, has no marketing fluff, and shows you how to do something useful with Security Copilot. Where it pulls up short is managing to live up to the hype we've been hearing about Security Copilot from day one.

We agree to table the discussion on Microsoft Recall until we know more about what GA of the feature will look like, and then dig into a VERY interesting squirrel story about an audio-based hacking puzzle created by a rock band.

The interview will delve into the healthcare industry's tumultuous year in 2023, marked by 124 million breached health records across 725 hacking incidents (according to The HIPAA Journal). This interview will explore the critical role that MSSPs play in safeguarding health data and systems against potential security incidents, such as ransomware and business email compromise attacks. Jim Broome will share how to proactively prepare for an incident - including establishing a comprehensive incident response plan, outlining strategies for containment, restoration, and ongoing security operations, and how an MSSP can help.

In the dynamic landscape of cybersecurity, the urgency to eliminate passwords as a security vulnerability has never been more critical. Organizations are continuing to face a surge in the variety and complexity of cyber threats at historical rates, often fueled by compromised employee login credentials – resulting from attacks such as phishing which has been exacerbated by the rise in use of Artificial Intelligence (AI). The 2023 Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report underscores the staggering impact of breaches caused by stolen credentials, accounting for a staggering 74% of incidents. Christopher Harrell, Yubico’s Chief Technology Officer, shares how organizations can achieve passwordless authentication at scale with high assurance phishing-resistant multi-factor authentication (MFA) to elevate their security posture against phishing attacks while creating phishing-resistant users.

Organizations today are overwhelmed with the sheer magnitude of potential cybersecurity threats and there is plenty of vendor buzz around AI in Security products, but what is the reality? Threat detection and incident response (TDIR) strategy and execution have never been more critical and are essential in maintaining cyber resilience and strengthening the security posture of every organization. TDIR aims to identify potential threats and respond before they can impact a business. A layered defense focuses on identifying threat activity, prioritizing investigations, and measuring risk. As a result, organizations can take the appropriate threat mitigation steps. These security strategies and protocols signify a step forward with a TDIR strategy where everyone from the CISO to the security analyst wins.

Vendors, sales channels, partners and other kinds of third parties are essential to most businesses. Ensuring that the information security risks of those other companies don't impact your own is the remit of Third Party Cyber Risk Management (TPCRM) teams. It is increasingly evident, however, that the existing practices and tools are not up to the challenge. They make the process even more adversarial than it needs to be, are focused on risk transfer and/or acceptance rather than reduction; are based on limited and low quality signals; and are often excruciatingly manual. We can do better as an industry, and in this conversation we are going to explore a new paradigm for TPCRM and its advantages for third and first parties.

As a special treat for this week's vault episode, we set up a conversation with Derek Manky to discuss Fortinet's FortiGuard Labs Threat Report. This is a bi-annual report put out by FortiGuard Labs, and in my opinion, it just keeps getting better and better. The report is chock full of actionable information and insights. It answered all my questions about the current state of threats and attacks, like:

• What is the latest big shift in strategy and focus for ransomware groups?
• I keep hearing that attackers are getting faster and faster - how much time to defenders actually have these days (to patch a critical vuln, for example)?
• What are the latest attack techniques being used? Which are used less, or never used?

There's not a dull moment in this conversation - I hope you enjoy listening to or watching it as much as I did making it!

Only one funding announcement this week, so we dive deep into Thoma Bravo's past and present portfolio. They recently announced a sale of Venafi to Cyberark and no one is quite sure how much of a hand they had in the LogRhythm/Exabeam merger, and whether or not they sold their stake in the process.

We also have a crazy stat Ross Haleliuk spotted in Bessemer's analysis: "13 out of 14 cybersecurity companies acquired in the past year for over $100M were from Israel". Is this an anomaly? Does it just mean that Israel wasn't shy about selling when the market was down? We discuss.

A number of new product announcements continue to trickle out post-RSA.

We'll also discuss Sam Altman and OpenAI's decision to use Scarlett Johansson's voice against her will and what it could mean for deepfakes, advanced social engineering techniques, and general big tech sliminess.

Suddenly SIEMs are all over the news! In a keynote presentation, Crowdstrike CEO George Kurtz talked about the company's "next-gen" SIEM. Meanwhile, Palo Alto, who was taken to task by some for not having an active presence on the RSAC expo floor, hits the headlines for acquiring IBM's SIEM product, just to shut it down!

Meanwhile, LogRhythm and Exabeam merge, likely with the hopes of weathering the coming storm. The situation seems clear - there's no such thing as "best of breed" SIEM anymore. It's a commodity to be attached to the existing dominant security platforms. Are the days numbered for the older pure-play SIEM/SOAR vendors out there? Crowdstrike and Palo Alto alone could displace a lot of incumbents, even with a less than stellar product.

A clear pattern with startups getting funding this week are "autonomous" products and features.

• Automated detection engineering
• Autonomously map and predict malicious infrastructure
• ..."helps your workforce resolve their own security issues autonomously"
• automated remediation
• automated compliance management & reporting

I'll believe it when I see it. Don't get me wrong, I think we're in desperate need of more automation when it comes to patching and security decision-making. I just don't think the majority of the market has the level of confidence necessary to trust security products to automate things without a human in the loop.

The way LimaCharlie is going about it, with their new bi-directional functionality they're talking up right now, might work, as detections can be VERY specific and fine-grained.

We've already seen a round of fully automated guardrail approaches (particularly in the Cloud) fail, however. My prediction? Either what we're seeing isn't truly automated, or it will become a part of the product that no one uses - like Metasploit Pro licenses.

We've talked about generative AI in a general sense on our podcast for years, but we haven't done many deep dives into specific security use cases.

Many years ago, I fielded a survey focused on the culture of cybersecurity. One of the questions asked what initially drew folks to cybersecurity as a career. The most common response was a deep sense of curiosity. Throughout my career, I noticed another major factor in folks that brought a lot of value to security teams: diversity.

Diversity of people, diversity of background, and diversity of experience. I've seen auto mechanics, biologists, and finance experts bring the most interesting insights and forehead-slapping observations to the table. I think part of the reason diversity is so necessary is that security itself is incredibly broad. It covers everything that technology, processes, and people touch. As such, cybersecurity workers need to have a similarly broad skillsets and background.

Today, we talk to someone that embodies both this non-typical cybersecurity background and sense of curiosity - Clea Ostendorf. We'll discuss:

• The importance for organizations to actively seek and welcome curious newcomers in the security field who may not conform to traditional cybersecurity norms.
• Strategies for organizations to foster an environment that encourages individuals with curiosity, motivation, and a willingness to challenge conventional norms, thereby promoting innovative thinking in addressing security risks.

Pascal Geenens from Radware joins us to discuss the latest research findings relating to hacktivists an other actors using volumetric and other network-based attacks. We'll discuss everything from the current state of DDoS attacks to use in the military and even the impact of cyberattacks on popular culture!

You can find the report Pascal mentions here, on Radware's website: https://www.radware.com/threat-analysis-report/

In this week's news segment, we discuss the lack of funding announcements, and the potential effect RSA could have on the timing of all sorts of press releases. We also discuss 1Password's potential future with its sizable customer base and the $620M it raised a few years back.

Some other topics we discuss:

• NIST CSF 2.0
• insider threats
• Ivanti Pulse Secure's appliance software found to be running positively ancient software (11 year old Linux distro, 5-20+ year old libraries & components)
• Nevada AG trying to get messaging decrypted for children, to "protect them"
• Kelly Shortridge's response to CISA's secure development RFI
• OpenAI's new GenAI video product, Sora and the potential impact it could have on cybersecurity
• Instacart spews out crappy AI recipes and photos

In this segment, featuring guest Amer Deeba, we'll explore how the SEC's new breach reporting rules will affect companies. We've got a ton of questions: What behavior has to change? What additional preparation needs to take place? How does this rule affect data security? How does it affect crisis communications?

And most importantly, when is an incident "material"?

This is almost a special episode on crazy new products. For the first half of the show, we discuss startup funding, market forces, acquisitions - stuff we usually discuss.

Then we get into all the crazy new AI and non-AI products being announced and coming out. Have some disposable cash to pre-order crazy gadgets? This is the episode for you!

Legacy systems are riddled with outdated and unreliable cryptographic standards. So much so that recent proprietary research found 61 percent of the traffic was unencrypted, and up to 80% of encrypted network traffic has some defeatable flaw in its encryption

No longer can enterprises take their cryptography for granted, rarely evaluated or checked.

Knowing when, where and what type of cryptography is used throughout the enterprise and by which applications is critical to your overall security policy, zero-trust approach, and risk management strategy. After all, zero-trust is meaningless if your cryptography isn't working.

This week, we discussed how a quick (minutes) and cheap ($15 a pop) fake ID service creates VERY convincing IDs that are possibly good enough to fool ID verification services, HR, and a load of other scenarios where it's common to share images of an ID. Kudos to 404Media's work there.

In the security market, we discuss who might be the first cybersecurity unicorn to go public in 2024, Oasis Security and Tenchi's funding rounds, Protect AI's acquisition of Laiyer AI and their FOSS project, LLM Guard. We discussed the seemingly inevitable M&A activity as unfunded security startups NEED to find a sale. Ross Haleliuk had an interesting LinkedIn post that goes deeper on this topic. Finally, we discussed Tyler's observation that Palo Alto Networks did the seemingly impossible - increased their valuation from $19B to over $100B in 5 years, despite having to weather a pandemic and market downturn along the way! Ryan pointed out that PANW joined the S&P 500 somewhere along the way - a watershed moment for them.

We discussed Bluesky and how it's likely too little too late when it comes to building back the community we lost when much of the InfoSec community left Twitter.

We also discussed a cybersecurity training scammer, Daniel Miessler's new Fabric tool, AnyDesk getting hacked, The Real Shim Shady vuln, new (voluntary) cybersecurity goals for healthcare, and the lack of toothbrush-enabled DDoS attacks!

We've seen general users targeted with phishing, financial employees targeted for BEC scams, and engineers targeted for access to infrastructure. The truly scary attacks, however, are the indirect ones that are automated. The threats that come in via software updates, or trusted connections with third parties.

The software supply chain is both absolutely essential, and fragile. A single developer pulling a tiny library out of NPM can cause chaos. A popular open source project changing hands could instantly give access to millions of systems. Every day, a new app store or component repository pops up and becomes critical to maintaining infrastructure.

In this interview, we'll chat with Pete Morgan about how these risks can be managed and mitigated.

We interview the co-founder and CTO of Fleet to understand why good, cross platform MDM/EMM has been such a challenge for so many years. Want good Windows device management? You're probably going to compromise on MacOS management. Ditto for Windows if you prioritize your Macs. Want good Linux device management? It doesn't exist.

Hopefully, Fleet can change all that in 2024, as they aim to complete their support for all major platforms, using the open source OSQuery project as their base.

The general public has varied opinions of biometric authentication, and an increasingly reluctant relationship with it, as more and more facial recognition is forced upon us (especially those of us that travel frequently). Facial recognition doesn't work for everyone, so what other options do we have?

In this interview, we'll explore accessibility in identity verification and the viability of voice-based authentication. How big an issue are AI-powered voice imposters? How will companies like Veridas combat these threats? We'll ask all these questions and more in this ESW interview.

On this segment, we talk a lot about AI, new technologies, and the future from a personal and consumer standpoint. Not a lot of enterprise-relevant stuff in the news today, but consumer products and AI will have a HUGE long-term impact, so that's how we're justifying today's topical focus ;)

GenAI hype is still at peak levels, but clearly some of the hopes and dreams pinned on it will fail, while other use cases we haven't even imagined will become commonplace. Greg Notch joins us to share his thoughts on what security leaders and the general public should be more or less worried about when it comes to GenAI.

Many founders and early stage startups closely guard product details and information about their roadmap and go-to-market plan. Is it a bad idea then to build a company based around an open source project? Not at all, according to Ev Kontsevoy, whose company Teleport has done just that. Building a security vendor around open source isn't a magic formula for success, however, so we'll discuss the pros and cons of this approach.

We'll also discuss best practices for securing infrastructure at scale and Teleport's journey in enabling a different and more secure approach to managing remote infrastructure.

The year kicks off with TWELVE funding announcements and NINE acquisitions! Several new companies have merged, we already have a few dumpster fires burning and there is plenty of AI news to kick off the year.

The annual Consumer Electronics Show gives us previews of the invasive and insecure horrors that will be unleashed upon us this year, New Yorkers get right to repair, and Polish trains don’t. (see the show notes for more)

I once told my college advisor that I wanted to double major in computer science and jazz performance. She laughed at me. Instead, I jumped into a career in IT and played jazz - without a degree in either. Turns out, that was fine - the industry valued experience and results over academic achievement. Today's guest has two degrees, one in fine arts, one in pre-law, and that's also fine. If there's anything I've learned in InfoSec, it's the mind that matters most, less so the degrees or certs on your wall. Angela Marafino gets cybersecurity and understands what makes it tick. Using this knowledge, she has built a personal brand, network, and career in an impressively short time. She is simultaneously mentor and mentee. Today, we'll explore Angela's path into the industry as well as some of her views on challenges, like imposter syndrome.

We're excited to give an end-of-year readout on the performance of the cybersecurity industry with Mike Privette, founder of Return on Security and author of the weekly Security, Funded newsletter. This year, this podcast has leaned heavily on the Security, Funded newsletter to prep for our news segment, as it provides a great summary of all the funding and M&A events going on each week.

In this segment, we look back at 2023, statistics for the year, comparisons to 2022, interesting insights, predictions, and more!

This week, in the security market, we talk about next NEXT gen anti-virus, how Okta can (apparently) do no wrong, and a VC firm imploding.

Then we discuss how smartphones and speakers are allegedly being used to spy on us, and the future of privacy and consumer tech products.

The latest SSH vuln is much less concerning than media outlets and academic researchers would have you believe. The Citrixbleed vuln, however is about as bad as vulns can get, and has led to one of the biggest US consumer breaches in a while, with Comcast/XFinity losing all customer records.

The SEC backpedals (again!) on requiring breached companies to provide details about how they got breached.

On this podcast, we've often struggled with whether or not to include stories and discussion on identity verification. Is identity verification cybersecurity proper, or cybersecurity adjacent as part of fraud prevention? As always, when we're unsure, we find folks to talk to and learn more.

Today, we'll be learning about weak points in the identity verification chain from Rob O'Farrell. He'll also be helping us to understand what identity verification is, and why it's important to cybersecurity overall. As more and more of the world is digitized (especially the lagging healthcare industry in the US), reliable identity verification seems more important every day.

What is telemetry data and why is it important to cybersecurity? Why is it such a pain to collect, store and use? How do we improve our ability to gather and benefit from this data? Today, Tucker Callaway, the CEO of Mezmo joins us to answer all these questions and help us understand the future of the SIEM and other cybersecurity data tools.

On this week's news segment, we pick up where we left off with Doug running the show last week. We discuss current early stage categories, AD canarytokens, and low hanging vulns. We talk about why cybersecurity is important, but not nearly as unique or special as some might have you think. The goal of patching faster than exploits can be used - is it a fool's errand?

Bob Ackerman argues that, from an investment perspective, cybersecurity is like life sciences - a complex, nuanced field that is difficult field to invest in part-time. So his firm, Allegis Cyber, became one of the first to focus exclusively on investing in cyber startups. In this segment, we'll discuss one of Allegis's recent investments, SixMap, and Bob's other investment/accelerator vehicle, Data Tribe. Data Tribe sources investments from national intelligence, with examples like Dragos that came through this program.

This week in the enterprise news, we explore the harsh realities of the startup world with a look at recent failures and shutdowns, investigating the factors leading to these setbacks. Meanwhile, Carbon Black makes headlines by breaking away from VMware in what seems like a divestiture within an acquisition, raising questions about the future of the company. We'll also discuss the European Space Agency's venture into cybersecurity for the space industry, revealing that even the vastness of outer space isn't immune to digital threats.

While non-profit doesn't mean "no budget" when it comes to cybersecurity, a lot of smaller to mid-sized non-profits operate on a shoestring, with little to no money for cybersecurity talent or spending. This is where Sightline Security steps in. Sightline's founder and CEO, Kelley Misata joins us today to explain how her own non-profit helps other non-profits improve their cybersecurity posture.

As with any category of trends, the success rate of cybercrime ebbs and flows. As Russia seems be a safe haven for cybercriminals, it seemed for a while that the war in Ukraine might disrupt this activity. It did, but only for a short while.

Keith Jarvis walks us through the latest types, tactics, and trends in cybercrime. Secureworks' latest State of the Threat report reveals a disturbing dichotomy: how is it we understand our adversaries' so well, but continue to fail to stop them? In this interview, we aim to understand what needs to happen to tilt the odds a bit back in our favor.

Once again, Theresa Lanowitz joins us to discuss Edge Computing, but with a twist this time, as Mani Keerthi Nagotu from SentinelOne joins us as well! As a field CISO, Mani knows all too well the struggles security leaders are going through, given the current market and threat landscape:

• Maybe not less budget, but more pressure to produce results and justify spending
• Security leaders being held personally accountable for performance
• Potential layoffs, and the need to achieve the same goals with less labor and tool overhead

We regularly cover significant breaches on this podcast, but it is rare that we have enough information about a major breach to cover in enough detail to devote an entire segment to. Today, we dive into lessons learned from the breach of Okta's customer support system that targeted some other major security vendors.

This is part of a troubling trend, where the target of an attack only serves as a jumping off point to other organizations. China's 2023 attack of Microsoft is an example of this. It was easier to attack Microsoft 365, one of the world's largest business SaaS platforms, than to go after each of the 25 individual targets these Chinese actors needed access to.

Traditionally, we've thought of lateral movement as something that happens within a network segment, or even within a single organization. Now, we're seeing lateral movement between SaaS platforms, between clouds, from third party vendors to customer, and even from open source project to open source adopters.

In this segment, we'll cover five key lessons learned from Okta's breach, from information shared by Okta and three of its customers: 1Password, Cloudflare, and BeyondTrust.

1. Protect Your Session Tokens
2. Monitor for Unusual Behavior
3. SaaS Vendors Are Common Targets
4. Zero Trust Principles Work
5. MFA Isn't a Binary (on or off) Control

Today, we discuss the state of attack surface across the Internet. We've known for decades now that putting an insecure service on the public Internet is a recipe for disaster, often within minutes. How has this knowledge changed the publicly accessible Internet? We find out when we talk to Censys's Aidan Holland today.

We've reached an inflection point in security. There are a handful of organizations regularly and successfully stopping cyber attacks. Most companies haven't gotten there, however. What separates these two groups? Why does it seem like we're still failing as an industry, despite seeming to collectively have all the tools, intel, and budget we've asked for?

Kelly Shortridge has studied this problem in depth. She has created tools (https://www.deciduous.app/), and written books (https://www.securitychaoseng.com/) to help the community approach security challenges in a more logical and structured way. We'll discuss what hasn't worked for infosec in the past, and what Kelly thinks might work as we go into the future.

During the news today, we went deep down the rabbithole of discussing security product efficacy. Adrian still doesn't believe in enterprise browsers beyond Google Chrome, but can't deny that Talon got a pretty favorable exit considering the state of the market. We see the first major exit for cybersecurity insuretechs, and discuss a few notable funding rounds.

We discuss Kelly Shortridge's essay on the origins and nature of the term "security" and what it means. Stephen Schmidt suggests 6 questions every board should ask their CISO, we explore Cyentia Labs' meta analysis of MITRE ATT&CK techniques, and Phil Venables shares some hilarious takes on infosec stereotypes.

In this segment, we discuss the current state of the market recovery with Hank Thomas, founder of Strategic Cyber Ventures.

We've got market questions, like:

• What has changed in the last year?
• Are IPOs coming back any time soon?
• How large is the cybersecurity death pool?
• What do early and mid-sized startups need to do to survive in the current market?

There is little to no organization of data within companies in 2023. We're all guilty of this at some level. The download folders and desktops on our personal machines are a mess. File servers, and cloud storage services are a mess. In Microsoft's recent data leak, AI researchers even had PC backups stored along side machine learning models for whatever reason.

Data is hard to classify, organize, and monitor. By designing for convenience, we've created convenience debt that now has to be paid down. In this segment we talk to Jackie McGuire about what needs to happen to accomplish this, at the enterprise level, and at scale.

Even if we can one day address the challenge of tracking and labeling data, we'll still have the challenge of addressing data integrity and resilience, which we'll also discuss if we have time!

One of the biggest challenges in security today is organizations' reluctance to share attack information. Perhaps legal teams are worried about liability, or maybe execs are just embarrassed about security failures. Whatever the reason, this trend makes it difficult for organizations to help each other. CrowdSec's mission is to make this process automated, anonymized, and seamless for security teams.

We talk to Phillip Humeau, one of CrowdSec's founders, about what it's like to build a such an unconventional cybersecurity business - one based around crowdsourcing and open source software.

This week, in the enterprise security news,

1. AI dominates new funding rounds (I’m shocked. This is my shocked face.)
2. The buyer’s market continues, with lots of small acquisitions

The world of AI is exploding, as excitement about generative AI creates a gold rush. We've already seen a huge number of new GenAI-based startups, products, and features flooding the market and we'll see a lot more emerge over the next few years. Generative AI will transform how we do business and how we interact with businesses, so right now is an excellent time to consider how to adopt AI safely.

Pamela Gupta's company literally has "trust" and "AI" in the name (Trusted.ai), so we couldn't think of anyone better to come on and have this conversation with.

As long as there are profits to be made, cybercriminals will continue to monetize enterprise assets—whether they be devices, applications, data, or users. It only takes one weak or unknown asset to compromise an entire organization. Brian will discuss why enterprises need to move away from assumption-based approaches to asset data and decision making to evidence-based asset intelligence to secure their environments quickly, easily, and at scale.

In this segment, we'll explore some of the most useful lessons and interesting insights to come out of the last year's worth of breaches and data leaks! We'll explain why we will NOT be covering MGM in this segment. The breaches we will be covering include:

- Microsoft AI Research Data Leak - Microsoft/Storm-0558 - CommutAir - Riot Games - Lastpass - CircleCI - RackSpace - Drizly (yes, this breach is older, but the full story just wrapped a year ago!)

On this week's news segment, we go down a bit of a rabbit hole on data lakes and have a GREAT conversation about where security data wrangling might or might not go in the future. We also discuss Nord Security's funding and $3B valuation, try to figure out what Synqly is doing, and discuss IronNet's demise.

We also find out which email solution is more secure (at least, according to insurance claim data), Google or Microsoft! 

We wrap up, learning that forms of CAPTCHAs are apparently broken now, $3800 gets you a gaming PC in the shape of a sneaker, and someone has created the DevOps equivalent of dieselgate!

Each employee serves as a potential gateway to their organization, and the personal information of your workforce is readily accessible and exposed on the internet, making the organization susceptible to threats.

We ALL use SaaS. It has become ubiquitous in both our personal and professional lives. Somehow, the SaaS Security market has only recently began to emerge. Today's interview with Yoni Shohet, co-founder and CEO of Valence Security, aims to understand why it has taken so long for SaaS Security products to come to market, what that market currently looks like, and what a SaaS Security product actually does.

The concept of Edge computing has evolved over the years and now has a distinct role alongside public cloud. Theresa Lanowitz, from AT&T Cybersecurity, and Chris Goettl from Ivanti join us to discuss what edge computing means for the market and for cybersecurity. Specifically, we'll discuss how:

• Strong use cases in the market today for edge computing
• Security's role in edge computing, as a relative newcomer to part of the broader planning process
• Edge computing requires new thinking about security because of its distributed nature

Forrester Research releases a few annual reoccurring cybersecurity reports, but one of the biggest that covers the most ground is the Security Risk Planning Guide, which was recently released for 2024. One of the report's 17 authors, and research director, Merritt Maxim, will walk us through the report's most interesting insights and highlights. This is going to be considerably interesting considering some of this year's trends impacting security teams:

• An economic downturn, resulting in layoffs and budget freezes
• The widespread proliferation of generative AI technology
• The relentless and resilient nature of cybercrime, despite some notable law enforcement wins
• Ongoing discussion about the role and relevance of SOCs, CISO's, as well as the security department place in today's enterprise
• Increased enterprise reliance on SaaS and Cloud, as vendors and service providers continue to struggle with securing their products and services

If you've ever played Dungeons & Dragons, you probably know that the quality of the experience depends on how prepared, experienced, and talented the Dungeon Master is.

Today, we'll talk to InfoSec DM and practitioner extraordinaire Ryan Fried about some of the key elements that separate a good cybersecurity tabletop exercise from a bad one! This is literally his day job at Mandiant, and it doesn't hurt to have one of the world's largest libraries of attacker TTPs and the collective lessons learned from thousands of actual incident response experiences.

This week we talk about finding, acquisitions and the state of the market. If you're interested in cybersecurity market discussion, this is the episode for you.

This segment is sponsored by Sophos. Visit https://securityweekly.com/sophos to learn more about them! We talk to Chris Sanders today, who has been steeped in the world of SecOps and detection/response for many years. After many years of writing books and training folks in the cybersecurity industry, he started delving into cognitive psychology and educational effectiveness. He leverages this knowledge in the training classes he builds and delivers. Today we'll discuss why it seems like defenders are still failing, despite the security industry largely (and arguably) receiving the resources it has been requesting. In this news segment, we start off by discussing funding, acquisitions, and Ironnet's unfortunate demise. We discuss Gmail's new, extra verifications for sensitive actions and Lockheed Martin's Hoppr SBOM and software supply-chain utility kit. We get into CISA's roadmap to help secure open source software, and their offer to run free vulnerability scans for the United States' 150,000+ water utilities. Then, discussion turns back to some more negative items with Brazil's self-inflicted $11 billion dollar data leak, and the MGM/Caesar's ransomware attacks, which seem like they could have a common attacker and initial attack vector (a shared IT support company, perhaps). We also discuss Microsoft's post mortem on the Storm-0558 attack. Kelly Shortridge wants to know, "why are you logging into production hosts", someone is submitting garbage CVEs, and Mozilla finds that privacy policies from auto manufacturers are a privacy TRAIN WRECK. Finally, we wrap up discussing tools that can detect deepfake audio, as well as the likelihood that this will be the start of a game of leapfrog, as deepfakes get increasingly better over time. And we discuss Delphi's offer to create a 'digital clone' of you that could live on forever, haunting your descendants.

Having direct visibility into your access data is crucial for two reasons: 1. Simplifying audit preparation and 2. Managing progress of your identity program to ensure peak performance. Internal auditors and compliance managers need easy access to granular data points to understand and demonstrate compliance to external agencies. Gaining access to real time data creates a great deal of autonomy for audit and identity teams to be able to delve deep into their identity programs and prove compliance. However, making the data available even internally can put organizations at risk for data leaks and data policy violations. Erik will outline how companies can gain access to their current identity search and dashboard data and be able to query in their preferred BI tool based on their own data privacy policies and business needs, significantly reducing risk.

Incredibly, the seemingly simple task of managing corporate-owned devices is still a struggle for most organizations in 2023. Maybe best MDM for Mac doesn't work with Windows, or the best MDM for Windows doesn't work with Mac. Maybe neither have Linux support. Perhaps they don't provide enough insight into the endpoint, or control over it. Whatever the case, security leaders never seem satisfied with their MDM solution and are always investigating new ones. Now, Kolide has stepped in with a unique approach to device management, combining the flexibility and industry support for OSQuery and built to integrate with IdP giant Okta.

While malware and ransomware tend to dominate cybersecurity headlines, Fortra’s research shows that nearly 99% of email threats reaching corporate inboxes utilize impersonation rather than malware. Email impersonation is a key component of credential phishing, advance fee fraud, hybrid vishing, and business email compromise schemes. Because email impersonation scams rely on social engineering rather than technology, the barrier to entry for an aspiring cybercriminal is almost non-existent.

InfoSec might have a hoarding problem, but it’s easy to understand why. It’s almost impossible to know what logs you’re doing to need, when you’re going to need them, or for what reason. SIEM vendors have taken advantage of these InfoSec data FOMO tendencies, however, and are making a killing charging a premium for storage - even when the storage in question is your own on-prem hardware. There ARE alternatives, however, but it seems most folks aren’t aware of this. In this interview with Eric Capuano, we’ll discuss both the practical and economic shortcomings of the traditional SIEM model. We’ll discuss the challenges of various SIEM use cases. Most importantly, we’ll discuss the new models actively replacing them. (No, they’re not branded as next-gen SIEMs) Tim MalcolmVetter has been alternating between blue team and red team roles for years. Moving between the two has had its advantages, giving Tim a better understanding of what works, what doesn’t and why. We’ll discuss a variety of topics, including the pros and cons of industry talent pipelines, Kerberoasting, and AI trends.

No Man is an Island. Neither can a security program exist without interconnections and strong relationships to the rest of the business. Yet, over and over again I meet Security Leaders that thrive on designing security fiefdoms with large moats, and one bridge that they roll down only when they intend to roll out a new technology, initiative or need budget authority. There is no amount of authority or power that can provided to a CISO that makes he or she immunized against the need for communication, collaboration and diplomacy with peers, users and Senior Executives.

Understand how businesses can gain superior security outcomes and better value from their investments by integrating 3rd party products natively into an adaptive ecosystem backed up by 24/7/365 threat detection, incident response and proactive threat hunting from one of the largest global providers of MDR services.  Finally in the Enterprise News segment, we discuss the user-facing security trend, bad ideas in company naming/branding, and why you might not want to be on a list of the top 200 most secure companies. We also discuss the right way to treat employees when doing layoffs, and the future for companies that probably shouldn't have received funding before the market downturn. Finally, France uses AI to discover untaxed pools!

This is the first interview in a two-part AI special! First up, we talk with Daniel Miessler, who has been following the generative AI trend very closely and is one of the most prolific writers and thought leaders on the topic. It's a massively divisive topic with the most successful product ever launched (ChatGPT). Some folks think it's overhyped, some think it's going to replace all the worst parts of the worst jobs, and others think it could be the beginning of the end for humanity. While other interviews on GenAI get deep into conversations on the future of humanity, we're going to stay closer to home on this one. It seems clear that GenAI will transform the enterprise more quickly than any other technology trend we've seen. We'll discuss what security needs to do to prepare for this shift, and why security teams should begin exploring GenAI themselves as soon as possible. Generative AI is taking the world by storm. Naturally, enterprises are looking for ways to integrate the innovative technology into their techstack, boost productivity of the knowledge workers and overall increase their ROI. The question is, how to do it without compromising data privacy and security standards of the enterprises. Segment Resources: https://zerosystems.com/ In this episode we briefly cover funding, and discuss Snyk's acquisition of Enso Security and Cisco's Armorblox buy. We discuss some new open source AI tools: privateGPT, llm, ttok, and strip-tags. We discuss the death of Meta's massive Metaverse movement and go DEEP down the rabbithole on the new Stop Silly Security Awards website.

Check out this interview from the ESW VAULT, hand picked by main host Adrian Sanabria! This segment was originally published on October 21, 2021.

The Record has published several interviews with cybercriminals, courtesy The Record's Russian-speaking analyst, Dmitry Smilyanets (https://therecord.media/author/dmitry-smilyanets). These interviews have included representatives from REvil, BlackMatter, and Marketo. The interviews have uncovered the gangs' motivations, targets, and tactics, and have been cited by officials, including White House Deputy National Security Advisor Anne Neuberger. We talk with Adam Janofsky, founder and Editorial Director of The Record about what it's like to start a vendor-sponsored media outlet (The Record is funded by Recorded Future), and what they've learned by interviewing the bad guys.

On this edition of the ESW news, we're all over the place! Funding and acquisitions are a little sad right now, but AI and TikTok bans raise our spirits. The hosts are split on feelings about the new .zip gTLD, there's a new standard for scoring an "AI Influence Level" (AIL), and lessons learned from Joe Sullivan's case and other Uber breaches. Also, don't miss the new AI tool DragGAN, which enables near magical levels of ease when manipulating photos.

What's even real anymore? We might not be able to tell for long... The reality is no organization is insusceptible to a breach – and security teams, alongside the C-suite, should prepare now to make the response more seamless once a crisis does happen. Based on his experience working 1:1 with security leaders in the private and public sectors, Jon Check, executive director of Cyber Protection Solutions at Raytheon Intelligence & Space, will share the critical steps organizations must take to best prepare for a security breach.

While companies utilize dozens of security solutions, they continue to be compromised and are continually searching for their real cybersecurity gaps amongst the overload of vulnerability data. A primary issue security teams face is that they lack a way to continuously validate the effectiveness of the different security solutions they have in place. Automated Security Validation is revolutionizing cybersecurity by applying software validation algorithms, for what was once manual penetration testing jobs. It takes the attacker's perspective to challenge the integrity and resilience of security defenses by continuously emulating cyber attacks against them.

Security teams are always on the lookout for external threats that can harm our organizations. However, an internal threat can derail productivity and lead to human error and burnout: repetitive, mundane tasks. To effectively defend against evolving threats, organizations must leverage no-code automation and free analysts to focus on higher-level projects that can improve their organization’s security posture.

This week, we discuss fundings, acquisitions (TWO DSPM exits!), the ongoing market downturn/weirdness, and surprise - LLM-based AIs! We spend a fair amount of time talking about the importance of breach transparency - we need to be able to learn from others' failures to improve our own defenses. We also discuss the inevitable 'One App To Rule them All' that will serve as an all-knowing personal assistant. It will integrate with all our comms, calendars, and notes, which will be scary and fraught with privacy and security issues. But Tyler and Adrian still yearn for it, as their pre-frontal cortexes become increasingly dulled by scotch and beer.

Enterprises are struggling to manage and reduce their organizational attack surface, especially with a shortage of skilled staff. Find out how some security executives are tackling this challenge by automating their IT and vulnerability management.

There is a war on trust in the digital world, and people are caught in the crosshairs. Everywhere we look, there are identity risks with crippling repercussions for businesses, whether fake people, fake content, or insecure web links. With the rise of generative AI tools in business, threat actors are utilizing these technologies to create more sophisticated phishing emails – mimicking brands and tone or more easily translating copy into several languages making them more difficult to identify and easily connecting hackers with global audiences. Now is the time to implement solutions that empower a connected thread of trust between businesses and users – before all trust is lost.

“Man plans, the Universe laughs” - unfortunately, that’s been the saying for far too long when it comes to cybersecurity. Security leaders know it's only a matter of time before their organization gets breached, but instead of being ready for it, they rely on fixing the problem after it happens. In Cisco’s newest report, the first ever Cybersecurity Readiness Index, it was found that a small minority of businesses globally (15%) consider themselves to be ready and able to defend against the expanding array of cybersecurity risks and threats of today. Organizations need to get ready and stay ready with solutions they can trust.

You know SBOMs can help you keep track of your software assets and therefore, their vulnerabilities. Despite even the White House pressing the issue, many vendors aren't forthcoming with SBOMs, and you can't afford to wait. With Tanium's Roland Diaz, we'll discuss the most important considerations when generating your own SBOMs (which is now something their product can also do!).

The MSP space has undergone a lot of changes in the past few decades, with the emphasis on security increasing dramatically in the last 5-10 years. We discuss how ConnectWise, which builds and sells solutions to MSPs, has tackled this challenge. We'll be asking questions both from Raffael's point-of-view, selling to MSPs, but also from the customer point-of-view - small to medium businesses with a need to outsource IT and security functions.

Today, we talk to Jim Routh - a retired CISO who survived the job for over 20 years! He'll be sharing some wisdom with us, like how analytics and data science can help detect malicious insiders.

The cloud and SaaS were supposed to make things easier, simpler, more scalable. Arguably, they _have_ done all those things, but traditional, legacy networks linger. Migrations are messy and take time. Nearly everything is encrypted in transit by default. Today, we interview Marty Roesch, the creator of Snort and founder of SourceFire, to discuss how things have changed and what defenders can do to catch up and restore some order to the madness. We'll step through some history along the way - listeners might be surprised at how much our current situation mirrors the reasons behind why Marty created Snort in the first place.

Organizations today operate under the constant looming threat of cyber attacks. While reactive cybersecurity measures will help organizations respond to past and present threats, offensive measures are the only chance to get ahead of attackers and beat them to the punch. There is now a greater call for offensive solutions like penetration testing and red teaming to evaluate environments so security gaps can be identified and closed before a breach. Join us as we discuss how these solutions work both independently and together, as well as practical ways organizations can build or mature an offensive security strategy.

Tanium has recently released a new capability called Tanium Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) to help customers identify third-party libraries associated with software packages.

• What is Tanium SBOM

• Why is it different and why do you need it

• How to configure SBOM

• How to query for the details about every software application in your environment

• Where your vulnerable packages exist

• Ways that Tanium can remediate vulnerabilities from OpenSSL to Struts to Log4j today as well as new supply-chain vulnerabilities in the future

No one knows what the next supply chain vulnerability is going to be, but with Tanium, you will have access to data about how your applications are affected before it happens so that when it does, you're ready to take action to remediate the issue from within the Tanium XEM platform.

We've catalogued over 10,000 cybersecurity products and each of the companies behind these products has a marketing team, a twitter account, a blog, and a ton of content to blast at enterprise security buyers. There's an interesting connection between GreyNoise's product, founder, and principles. While building a product that filtered out the noise that wastes most security operations teams' time, Andrew was dead set against building a startup that resembled the typical security startup. We'll discuss Andrew's unique path to market, the latest features of GreyNoise, and where the lines are drawn between malicious and benign scanning.

Despite certain economic indicators warning that a recession is on the horizon, investment remains healthy within the security market amid thirst for cloud security, in particular. One such emerging field is data security posture management (DSPM), which aims to bridge the gap between business goals and a comprehensive security mechanism that leaves no data behind as organizations scale in the cloud.

A deep-rooted cyber security culture is crucial, and it goes as far back as the hiring process… 10 years ago, a typical hiring process consisted of working your way through a checklist, hiring individuals based solely on a CV. Today, the ‘Simon Sinek’ culture is gaining more prevalence, with employers realizing that hiring the right person, rather than the CV, can have immeasurable benefits for business. Ryan will talk about why this is particularly true within the cyber security sphere, and why business leaders should follow this particular ‘Simon Sinek’ strategy to build a successful security operation, and secure business, starting directly with the human’s that run it. You will walk away from this session knowing why it is important to employ the right individual rather than the CV, and how adopting this approach can drastically improve how a business responds to and manages security threats, company wide.

Don’t leave the door open. Modern systems are complex and require you to consider many aspects. Here are some aspects we consider critical:

- APIs are the dominant software development direction/trend. Traditional/legacy ways to grant access is not fit for purpose of protecting this new way of delivering products and services.

- Customers are demanding better digital experiences. To maintain a competitive edge and drive brand loyalty businesses need to provide great online experiences.

- Standards (such as OAuth and OpenID Connect) are important to ensure high-security levels. Also enables scalability and helps future-proof your infrastructure. For example in the financial sector, these standards play a key role in the drive toward open banking.

- A modern architecture is a zero trust architecture. In a zero trust architecture, the new perimeter hinges on identity.

The cloud and SaaS were supposed to make things easier, simpler, more scalable. Arguably, they _have_ done all those things, but traditional, legacy networks linger. Migrations are messy and take time. Nearly everything is encrypted in transit by default. Today, we interview Marty Roesch, the creator of Snort and founder of SourceFire, to discuss how things have changed and what defenders can do to catch up and restore some order to the madness. We'll step through some history along the way - listeners might be surprised at how much our current situation mirrors the reasons behind why Marty created Snort in the first place.

Cybersecurity is now battling a human problem just as much, if not more, than a technical one. According to Verizon’s 2021 Data Breach Security Report, 85% of successful cyberattacks now involve a human element. Combine that with the fact that even the very best technology can only thwart about 93% of attacks and that leaves a large hole in an organization’s basic security hygiene. This has led to a growing demand for ongoing educational programs that rely on behavioral science to measure and manage cybersecurity risk as a distinctly different solution from generic, one-size-fits-all training programs.

In the enterprise security news, SentinelOne and Crowdstrike reinvest in the security market, Malwarebytes raises $100M, Ox Security raises a $34M Seed round??? Jamf acquires ZecOps, New startups looking to improve Code Reviews…Outsource questionnaires…provide consumer privacy awareness…Federal security funding for state and local governments, New software supply chain attacks, Microsoft Windows slaps your hand when you try to update passwords.txt, and stick around until the end, when we talk about a New Jersey Deli with a $100M market cap!

This is a recurring segment, in which we bring on a VC to provide an investor’s point-of-view on all this activity. It’s hard to imagine a better investor to join us than Will Lin, co-founder of Forgepoint, one of the few VC firms that exclusively invests in cybersecurity startups.

We'll discuss:

- How, the last time we had Will on (20 episodes ago, ESW 270), we were asking about huge valuations and potential market resets/corrections. Well, it seems that day arrived. What now?

- Crowdstrike and SentinelOne are active investors with their own funds now. Is this a new trend, or are we just now noticing it? What does it mean for the larger market and for founders looking to raise?

- We've had guests on to discuss enterprise browsers, and DSPM - what hot markets should we target next?

From its origins a decade ago, the grassroots movement to enshrine in law the right to repair our stuff (read: cell phones, laptops, home appliances, cars, machinery) has morphed into a potent, global movement. Today, much of the debate over right to repair laws has focused on issues like concentrations of market power by large corporations and anti-competitive behavior with regard to service and repair of "smart," connected products. However, there is a less-discussed but equally potent argument in favor of repair: cybersecurity and data privacy. In this conversation, Paul Roberts, the founder of SecuRepairs.org (pron: Secure Repairs), talks about the dire state of device security on the Internet of Things and how efforts by manufacturers to limit access to software updates, diagnostic tools and parts exacerbates IoT cyber risk, even as it burdens consumers and the environment.

The new category of Data Security Posture Management, what is it and why it's important. Discussing real customer stories where DSPM products played a critical role in helping companies secure their data.

Since the dawn of the internet, companies have been fighting cyber vulnerabilities with a myriad of traditional technologies. And assigning cybersecurity training to people without really knowing its effectiveness or being able to tell the difference between knowledge and behavior. This is why AwareGO created the Human Risk Assessment. Designed by behavioral and cybersecurity experts, it allows organizations to measure human risk and resilience across a number of critical cybersecurity threat vectors. It measures cyber risks connected to social media that are not only personal but can affect the workplace as well. It helps assess awareness of secure password handling with multiple interactive experiences and situations. And it allows you to discover how employees would deal with tricky situations around the workplace, such as tailgating and shouldersurfing …. and issues related to remote work. All in a safe and friendly environment. After completing the assessment employees get individualized results with an explanation of what they did right and what they could have done better. This offers guidance and a chance to learn. The overall results help organizations gather actionable insights and make informed decisions about their security strategy. The Human Risk Assessment works as a stand alone product but its flexibility allows integration into existing platforms. When combined with AwareGO’s live action training content it can bring your organization’s cyber resilience to the next level.

In 2023, at least five new “rights-based” data privacy laws will become enforceable in the United States at the state level, including the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA). Common to all of these laws are information security requirements, including the need for risk assessments and the need for authenticating data access requests. In this podcast we’ll speak with an information security legal veteran on what these new laws mean for cybersecurity professionals and their data protection programs.

This week, we start off the show by welcoming Ryan Fried to discuss how Security analysts can move past traditional Indicators of Compromise from threat intel like domains, hashes, URLs, and IP addresses. These indicators typically aren't valid shortly after the incidents happen. Modern threat hunting by doing things like reading recent and relevant security articles, pull out behaviors that attackers are doing like commands such as net group "domain admins" or RDPing from workstation to workstation and translating those to threat hunting queries. Then, Joeseph Carson joins to discuss following in the footsteps of an attacker and uncovering their digital footprints, this episode will uncover an attacker’s techniques used and how they went from zero to full domain admin compromise, which resulted in a nasty ransomware incident. It will also cover general lessons learned from Ransomware Incident Response.

In order to run a successful SOC, security leaders rely on tools with different strengths to create layers of defense. This has led to a highly siloed industry with over 2,000 vendors, each with their own specific function and who very seldom work together. To gain an advantage on attackers, we need to start seeing cybersecurity as a team sport––united for a shared mission. In this session, ExtraHop's Jamie Moles and CrowdStrike's Dixon Styres discuss why and how vendors should work together to enable better integrated security for their customers.

Heightened emotions, demands for updates, not knowing how bad things might be...

Incident response isn’t easy, but practice and the right tools can make it a whole lot less stressful. Some regulations like PCI require annual IR tests, but is that enough? Imagine playing a sport where the team meets for one half-hearted practice once a year. How would that team perform under pressure? How would they communicate?

Say this sports analogy has convinced you – the IR team should practice more and should practice effectively. Questions still remain – how often?

Two important shifts over the last two years transformed what we once knew as an on-premise ecosystem into a global system accessible from anywhere. One is remote work, which began as a temporary measure to get us through the early days of the pandemic and has since become the norm. The other is cloud adoption, which was mainstream even before the pandemic, but has seen another bump in the last two years. As a result, the internet has become the new corporate network. Where do we go from here? This segment is sponsored by Perimeter 81. Visit https://securityweekly.com/perimeter81 to learn more about them!

Phishing attacks are increasingly focused on new vectors such as social media, business collaboration apps, and text messages. These vectors generally lack any protection for the end user. How can we protect against these attacks that are increasingly leading to costly breaches? This segment is sponsored by Pixm. Visit https://securityweekly.com/pixm to learn more about them!

Employee turnover is the biggest threat to any organization's IP. Nearly 60% of employees move to a new company within similar fields (think: competitors) and are using collaboration technology to take sensitive data at an alarming rate. Code42's Joe Payne will discuss how Insider Risk Management addresses data loss in a volatile job market while still enabling collaboration. This segment is sponsored by Code42.

Managing firewall rule reviews, especially for PCI-DSS, can be complex but it doesn't have to be. Hear from Jeff Styles as he talks about how you can automate this process to keep you compliant and secure. There's a LOT of noise in the security industry. We've catalogued over 10,000 cybersecurity products and each of the companies behind these products has a marketing team, a twitter account, a blog, and a ton of content to blast at enterprise security buyers. There's an interesting connection between GreyNoise's product, founder, and principles. While building a product that filtered out the noise that wastes most security operations teams' time, Andrew was dead set against building a startup that resembled the typical security startup. We'll discuss Andrew's unique path to market, the latest features of GreyNoise, and where the lines are drawn between malicious and benign scanning. In the Enterprise Security News for this week: Google intends to acquire Mandiant HelpSystems to pick up Alert Logic - at least their 11th security acquisition in the past 3 years, Rumor that Abnormal Security could be our next security unicorn, Axonius raises a $200M Series E, A number of AppSec and cloud security startups raise their first big rounds, SEC requires public companies to report breaches within 4 days,Did we mention Google is buying Mandiant?

It’s a new year and a time when we make resolutions…which often drop off by the start of February. To keep your security resolutions for 2022, today’s show will be about enterprise security pitfalls and the areas corporations should focus on when planning their cybersecurity strategy for the year. Topics will include proper data hygiene; ransomware prevention and recovery techniques; challenges in securing a distributed workforce and the changing role of IT and containing data sprawl. We’re looking forward to keeping you informed throughout 2022! 2021 was the most active year in federal cybersecurity policy. Ever. The Biden administration used executive orders, new regulations, public/private partnerships and novel law enforcement strategies to shore up federal systems and engage with industry. Meanwhile, an otherwise active year in Congress took a hit when several major pieces of legislation like incident reporting mandates and federal cybersecurity reform were left of the NDAA. SC Media government reporter Derek B. Johnson will discuss what came out last year's flurry and what we can expect Congress to prioritize in 2022. In the Enterprise Security News for this week: Pentera announces a $150m Series C - YAU (Yet Another Unicorn), Herjavec Group merges with Fishtech, Google acquires SOAR vendor SIEMplify, A European grocery store buys BAS vendor XM Cyber, Flashpoint acquires vuln intel vendor Risk Based Security, Recorded Future acquires SecurityTrails, Drama in the Israeli cybersecurity news, Security, Analyst is the #1 best job of 2022, Microsoft to start rolling out its own hardware security chip, & Some annoying words get banned!
