Show notes

(2019-01-10): risk management, corporate security culture, blue side, rants

[00:20:06] we have policies that are written by security for security that no one ever reads let alone understands or adheres to. They've written like Ten Commandments thou shalt not share thy password. Why not. They never explained why not or what the alternative is. [00:20:21]

The second episode of 2019 brought us Ed Tucker with his fantastic, straight to the point and tell-it-how-it-is Brummie personality to speak about the ever changing security landscape - or, how some things just don't change. Details:

stocking shelves -> pub support -> HMRC -> European CISO Of The Year;

jumpstarting security at HMRC;

security's problem: we assume the controls work, they don't;

helping security startups;

and the first edition of now known as "Ed Tucker Rant"

plus questions from the audience, as always!

More details

[00:04:21] There is a little potted history with me that almost everyone I've ever worked for has gone bust, apart from Fujitsu and HMRC [00:04:29];

[00:07:11] like most people my age is at some point in my life I tripped and fell into security because it didn't exist as a career path [00:07:18];

[00:20:41] we have all these various controls in place and most of them don't work; firewalls that effectively are there to heat your data center because no one's got a bloody clue what rules are on them [00:20:51];

[00:57:57] Someone will always click that always open or they'll reply or do something. It's almost inevitable. [00:58:02];

[01:27:34] There was a great thread on Twitter not so long back about someone who is basically saying that if you weren't that ninja coder that you were basically substandard infosec it was like fuck me that's so wrong [01:27:48].

Ep. 40, Words under press (with Ryan Dewhurst) — Ep. 40, Words under press (with Ryan Dewhurst) Oct 01, 2019
Show notes

(2019-01-03): wordpress, ethical hacking, commercializing

[00:18:38] There's plenty of companies out there looking for skilled testers; it's just making them aware you exist

On the first episode of 2019, we have Ryan Dewhurst aka @ethicalhack3r, founder of Dewhurst Security; the wpscan tool;
and DVWA (Damn Vulnerable Web App), to talk about WordPress security and the story behind his projects:

Hobby -> Professional Security Testing;

Background of DVWA and wpscan;

Challenges of commercializing wpscan;

Security of WordPress;

Full disclosure vs responsible disclosure;

Tips for starting out;

and many questions from the audience.

Teasers:

[00:26:18] - When I started university in 2008, I didn't even know another person who did computer security, ethical hacking, and nowadays it seems like everybody is doing it nowadays, so it's definitely come a lot commercial;

[00:58:41] - It's nice to receive a bounty; I think it's right that they should, but don't think it's a right. It's more of a privilege than a right;

[01:02:37] - My first project, DVWA, I was creating something to help me to learn, because we may find that useful, and I think when you're a beginner or when you're just learning, I think that's a great thing to do;

[01:13:47] - As long as you're passionate about what you're doing, you're thinking outside the box, and you're doing more than what's asked of you, I think people will pick up on that.

Show notes

(2019-05-19): infosec journalism, reporting about cybercrime

[00:36:28] the first obligation is to your readers - and then to the source

This time we turn to cybercrime - not doing it but learning about it happening elsewhere. We have been joined by Joseph Cox: a journalist for Motherboard focusing on reporting about cyber crime and information security in general. We have hit the following spots:

responsible reporting: who is the audience?

naming criminals in the interest of the public vs. doxing (that story again);

motivations: keeping it clear for the audience;

responsible reporting: how not to make things worse by publishing a story;

Rant of the Episode: SIM swapping and the harm it causes;

and, as always, questions from our fabulous audience.

Some teasers for this episode:

[00:05:05] you don't want to confuse an ordinary reader with a lot of technical details you really want to boil it down as simply as possible -and that's going to anger some people;

[00:34:34] just because a hacker is blackmailing a victim doesn't mean you can't cover the data breach - people still want to be informed about it, especially if it's email addresses and hashed passwords or something that is still important;

[00:43:26] We really need to not underestimate the capabilities of very low skilled hackers.

Show notes

2019-04-11: DFIR, martial arts, breaking into infosec
[01:16:55] Do you know how annoying it is to clean a sword?

A second episode of this night, and this time we had a pleasure to guest Lesley Carhart, a.k.a. hacks4pancakes: a master of many skills, currently this is ICS in terms of prevention and DFIR. She hacks for pancakes (you need to search for this story!), she knows how to operate a sword and is a full spectrum cyber-warrior princess. This episode had many highlights, such as:

a farm in Illinois, USA via military service (still a reservist) to today's information security;

great things about infosec twitter, burnouts;

martial arts, weapons, movies and games!

breaking into infosec;

Rant Of The Episode: the importance of basics in security;

and lots of questions from the audience.

Some highlights:

[00:31:21] passion is important but passion can also lead to burnout

[00:44:02] Oh my weapons list! Oh I've never been asked about that on a podcast before

[00:51:25] you don't have to be like a programmer and you don't have to be a network engineer but you need to have a solid foundation in all those different things to be really good at security

Ep. 57, Be aware of the puppets! (with Kathryn Brett Goldman) — Ep. 57, Be aware of the puppets! (with Kathryn Brett Goldman) Apr 23, 2019
Show notes

2019-04-11: security awareness, user behaviour, startup culture

[00:12:07]: cybersecurity culture is not based on one 20 minute slide deck

Tonight we had two fantastic guests, the first being Kathryn Brett Goldman, CEO and founder of Cybermaniacs and KBG Solutions and Director of Development for Ladies of London Hacking Society and master of puppets of awareness to talk about a different approach to user training:

A degree in theatre -> information security strategy and awareness;

Cybermaniacs: a different approach to awareness training;

changing users' behaviours without killing them with presentations;

rant of the show: how to make startups use the money better?

This show's teasers:

[00:27:53] I think the biggest challenge we've had has actually been business executives, H.R. and people in learning and development who only want to see certain things in certain ways;

[00:53:04] it seems to be a huge part of the challenge we're facing right now is actually the human and behavioral side;

[00:13:02] little teeny tiny bits of learning little teeny tiny bits of nudging in order that the end users who are mostly not technical can actually achieve some behavioral change;

Ep. 56, I spy with my little SpyEar (with Rachel Tobac) — Ep. 56, I spy with my little SpyEar (with Rachel Tobac) Apr 07, 2019
Show notes

[00:06:35] I wanted to be a neuroscience major and promptly sucked at school and there were a lot of tears along the way but I did end up getting my double major in neuroscience and cognitive and behavioral psychology [00:06:48]

(2019-04-04)

This time TMHC was privileged to host Rachel Tobac talking mostly about social engineering. Rachel is CEO & Co-founder SocialProof Security and Board Member of WISP (Women in Security & Privacy). She specializes in Social Engineering and has been a winner of DEFCON Social Engineering Capture the Flag competition, 3 years in a row.

Some of the topics covered:

neuroscience, cognitive psychology, DEF CON -> social engineering expert;

why does social Engineering work?

war stories from the field;

Women in Security and Privacy: helping women find their spot in infosec, DEF CON scholarships;

rant of the show: users are not stupid.

plus, as always, a ton of questions from our fantastic audience.

Some key excerpts:

[00:10:07] the very first thing that I did is I called my insurance company and I tried to get information about me without authenticating the correct way and see if you can do that - see you can talk yourself through that situation and do OSINT enough to be able to accomplish that [00:10:22],

[00:30:20] Anybody who loves working at the company and loves posting about it on Instagram and joking and tagging; I have been able to find and be successful in about three hours for the majority my of clients [00:30:32],

[00:36:37] that pretext works but you probably delivered it with more confidence that anyone ever has because you legitimately believed it [00:36:44],

[00:50:12] Every social engineer I know has been successfully phished, every single one [00:50:16],

[01:06:34] we want to send more women and give them more opportunities to find a future boss a future mentor and these things happen because last year we sent 57 women to DEF CON in each scholarship of $780 [01:06:46],

[01:15:15] infosec Twitter sometimes is a dumpster fire, but most of the time it's pretty great. So I would say absolutely make a Twitter follow people join in on the conversation [01:15:24].
