Paul's Security Weekly

Russ runs the show solo with the absence of Dr. Doug to talk about Travel Security! He explains different aspects such as Personal Security, Asset Security, and Digital Security! Traveling is a lot of fun, but also requires a lot of responsibility. Don't be intimidated, use common sense, adhere to all of the points we mentioned above, stay away from problem areas, and we ensure you’ll have a great time!

We often think "this would be so much better if done properly from the beginning", but the reality is, doing things from scratch comes with different challenges. Managing priorities, deciding what you tackle on from the absolute beginnings of a company in terms of security is a fun challenge.

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 Segment Resources https://cybersecurity.att.com/insights-report This segment is sponsored by AT&T Cybersecurity.

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 majo

Attackers pursue the shortest path to achieve their goals in your app. With a tri-layered security architecture, you can force hackers to crawl through a triathlon in your app. What’s in the three layers, to detect attacks sooner, slow attackers down, and stop them fast? Let’s take a journey across the three layers and discuss how to gain control of user permissions, secure your cloud computing, and keep your customers and their users safe.

Inspired by my co-host, Jason Albuquerque, we get our hands dirty and discuss the challenges of cyber risk management. Why is cyber risk management so elusive and what can we do to solve it? In part 1, we discuss the challenges of cyber risk management and quantification. Do risk scores really work? What do CEOs and Boards really need to understand cyber risks? Inspired by my co-host, Jason Albuquerque, we get our hands dirty and discuss the challenges of cyber risk management. Why is cyber risk management so elusive and what can we do to solve it? In part 2, we get our hands dirty by walking through ways to quantify cyber risks in business terms. What risks are truly worth mitigating vs. accepting or transferring? And if we do mitigate them, how do we track progress and impact? Visit https://www.securityweekly.com/bsw for all the latest episodes!

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

A lot of appsec conferences have presentations for appsec audiences -- but that's not often the group that's building apps. What if more developer conferences had appsec content? We talk with Josh about security from the developer's point of view, both as an audience hearing about it and as a presenter talking about it. We discuss the importance of knowing your audience and finding the hooks in security tools and topics that can resonate with developers.

It's time to review the money of security, including public companies, IPOs, funding rounds and acquisitions from the previous quarter. We also update you on the Security Weekly 25 index.

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 c

The categories of security tools that we're most familiar with have struggled to keep up with how modern apps are designed and what modern devs need. What if instead of being beholden to categories, we created tools that solved problems devs have today in the types of apps they build today? And what if we had more dev leadership to influence security tools as well as secure by design? What would that leadership look like?
