The Cloud First BISO May 03, 2022

Show notes

Leading and guiding a data-driven security program as a BISO can be challenging. Data is everywhere and owned by many departments. Once a BISO has found that data they need, they must overcome the challenges of data access, storage, normalization and all the other steps required to turn that data into an actionable story. Fortunately, the Cloud can make this easier and faster.

SBOM: Where We’ve Come From, and Where We’re Going Mar 21, 2022

Show notes

Across the security world, there’s a growing appreciation about the need to better understand our software supply chain. Transparency won’t solve all our problems, but will lay a foundation for greater resilience and more informed decisions. This discussion will review the basics of SBOM, using the recent log4j vulnerability to understand how SBOM can help across the software ecosystem—and also understand its limits. We’ll also delve into the future of SBOM, exploring some of the gaps, where we need to focus to advance the state of the art. Our ultimate goal should be the integration of SBOM into the broader vulnerability and security data ecosystem through automation.

Cybersecurity? Isn't it really the Data Care industry? Jan 19, 2022

Countless conversations with students, politicians, and leaders about cybersecurity suggest that the term ‘cybersecurity’ does not invoke the personal sense of responsibility necessary, nor is it inviting to the majority of the public including minorities, women and young adults who we want to seek a career in this field. How do we change that? Let's start with Data Care. In this podcast, our guests will discuss what’s missing from the term ‘cybersecurity’ and how taking a ‘Data Care’ approach can help us all to build a more secure world.
