OT Security - Huxley Barbee - ASW #259 Oct 17, 2023

Show notes

It's no surprise that OT security has fared poorly over the last 30+ years. To many appsec folks, these systems have uncommon programming languages, unfamiliar hardware, and brittle networking stacks. They also tend to have different threat scenarios. Many of these systems are designed, successfully, to maintain availability. But when a port scan can freeze or crash a device, that availability seems like it hasn't put enough consideration into adversarial environments. We chat about the common failures of OT design and discuss a few ways that systems designed today might still be secure 30 years from now.

Weaponizing Asset Intelligence, App Sec at ISW - Kevin Johnson, Brian Contos, Stacy Kooistra - ESW #335 Oct 13, 2023

Show notes

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.

What does it mean for AI to be trustworthy? - Pamela Gupta - ESW #335 Oct 12, 2023

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.
