To curmudgeon or not to curmudgeon, that is the question. - PSW #911 Jan 29, 2026

Show notes

This week, we get un-curmudgeoned by Mandy, spending a bunch of time talking about regulations, compliance, and even the US federal government's commitment to cybersecurity internally and with the community at large. We even dive into some Microsoft patches, hacking defunct eScooters, and a lively discussion on ADS-B spoofing!

Cloud Control As Leaders At Odds Over Cyber Priorities, But Require Strong Leadership - Rob Allen - BSW #432 Jan 28, 2026

Show notes

The top social engineering attacks involve manipulating human psychology to gain access to sensitive information or systems. The most prevalent methods include various forms of phishing, pretexting, and baiting, which are often used as initial entry points for more complex attacks like business email compromise (BEC) and ransomware deployment. How do you control what users click on?

Even with integrated email solutions, like Microsoft 365, you can't control what they click on. They see a convincing email, are in a rush, or are simply distracted. Next thing you know, they enter their credentials, approve the MFA prompt—and just like that, the cybercriminals get in with full access to users' accounts. Is there anyway to stop this?

Rob Allen, Chief Product Officer at ThreatLocker, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss how ThreatLocker Cloud Control leverages built-in intelligence to assess whether a connection from a protected device originates from a trusted network. By only allowing users from IP addresses and networks deemed trusted by ThreatLocker to get in—phishing and token theft attacks are rendered useless. So, no matter how successful cybercriminals are with their phishing attacks and token thefts—all their efforts are useless now.

Building proactive defenses that reflect the true nature of modern software risk - Paul Davis - ASW #367 Jan 27, 2026

Show notes

Supply chain security remains one of the biggest time sinks for appsec teams and developers, even making it onto the latest iteration of the OWASP Top 10 list. Paul Davis joins us to talk about strategies to proactively defend your environment from the different types of attacks that target supply chains and package dependencies. We also discuss how to gain some of the time back by being smarter about how to manage packages and even where the responsibility for managing the security of packages should be.

The future of data control, why detection fails, and the weekly news - Thyaga Vasudevan - ESW #443 Jan 26, 2026

Show notes

Segment 1: Interview with Thyaga Vasudevan

Hybrid by Design: Zero Trust, AI, and the Future of Data Control

AI is reshaping how work gets done, accelerating decision-making and introducing new ways for data to be created, accessed, and shared. As a result, organizations must evolve Zero Trust beyond an access-only model into an inline data governance approach that continuously protects sensitive information wherever it moves. Securing access alone is no longer enough in an AI-driven world.

In this episode, we'll unpack why real-time visibility and control over data usage are now essential for safe AI adoption, accurate outcomes, and regulatory compliance. From preventing data leakage to governing how data is used by AI systems, security teams need controls that operate in the moment - across cloud, browser, SaaS, and on-prem environments - without slowing the business.

We'll also explore how growing data sovereignty and regulatory pressures are driving renewed interest in hybrid architectures. By combining cloud agility with local control, organizations can keep sensitive data protected, governed, and compliant, regardless of where it resides or how AI is applied.

Internal Audit Focal Points for 2026 as AI Impacts Conventional Cybersecurity - Tim Lietz - BSW #431 Jan 21, 2026

Show notes

Key emerging risks include cybersecurity (41%) and Generative AI (Gen AI) (35%), both of which present challenges in skill development and retention. The growing reliance on external providers reflects these gaps. In two years, strategic risk has fallen 10% as technological advancements have shifted auditors' attention away from strategy. So what are the top concerns?

Tim Lietz, National Practice Leader Internal Audit Risk & Compliance at Jefferson Wells, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss the shifting priorities for internal audit leaders, with technology, business transformation and digitization remaining central amid rising economic uncertainty. This reflects the broader economic challenges and uncertainties that organizations are facing in the current environment. Tim will discuss the need for enhanced skills inAI, cybersecurity and digital transformation and why Internal Audit is increasingly seen as a strategic partner in navigating transformation within their organizations.

Lessons from MongoBleed, CWE Top 25, and Secure Coding Benchmarks - ASW #366 Jan 20, 2026

Show notes

MongoBleed and a recent OWASP CRS bypass show how parsing problems remain a source of security flaws regardless of programming language. We talk with Kalyani Pawar about how these problems rank against the Top 25 CWEs for 2025 and what it means for relying on LLMs to generate code.
