Unified Identity Security, Identity is Under Attack & Identity is Security - Andre Durand, David Bradbury, Wendy Wu - ESW #363 May 24, 2024

Show notes

The next generation of identity security is not about the popular idea of convergence, but of unification. A single, AI-driven solution that integrates PAM with identity security and access management is the clear path forward to manage and secure all enterprise data through a unified control point.

Over the past 15 years, identity has evolved from a perimeter-based security model with clear boundaries to one that is fluid, flexible, and permeates every aspect of digital business. Simultaneously, AI has infiltrated every enterprise, becoming a double-edged sword for defenders, and fueling fraud attacks across every sector.

In this interview, Ping Identity CEO Andre Durand will walk through the evolution of the identity attack surface, and the opportunity decentralized identity has to dramatically improve both security and experience by putting users in control. He'll also discuss the increasing threats to individuals and businesses, given the influx of AI, and why we should consider this the era of "verify more, trust less."

This Week: short on funding, long on research and analysis - ESW #363 May 23, 2024

Show notes

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.

Do you know what a "product glorifier" is? How about a glowstacker? You will if you check out the second-to-last story in the show notes!

Node.js Secure Coding - Liran Tal - ASW #286 May 21, 2024

Show notes

Secure coding education should be more than a list of issues or repeating generic advice. Liran Tal explains his approach to teaching developers through examples that start with exploiting known vulns and end with discussions on possible fixes. Not only does this create a more engaging experience, but it also relies on code that looks familiar to developers rather than contrived or overly simplistic examples.
