And she shares insights on why the SMB market is a $50B opportunity for cyber, why the U.S. needs a cyber moonshot to catch up, the criticality of security by design and why Cyberspace Solarium Commission is a good start but, ultimately, as we consider public/private partnerships' success ahead who carries the stick for actions, accountability and milestones? And, Eric recommends his favorite book of the week "Think Again: The Power of Knowing What You Don't Know" by Adam Grant.

The Prescience Challenge in Cybersecurity [PART 2] Apr 06, 2021

Show notes

The next two weeks we catch up with SC Media Editor-in-Chief Jill Aitoro for a two-part discussion on the latest hot cybersecurity news drivers such as the continuing Microsoft Exchange hacker feeding frenzy and continuing discoveries from the SolarWinds supply chain attack. Both of which raise more questions than answers in how we collectively solve for these security challenges including pathways such as legal requirements for notifications, who do you notify and who is notified first, security ratings systems for software suppliers and businesses and managing such a system on a global scale across organizations small and large. We also explore the role of superadmins and where the line of offensive strategies against nation-state attackers should be drawn for enterprises. And in celebration of March 2021 as Women's History Month, we discuss the path forward for enabling future female business leaders in security and the power of mentoring and advocacy for the up and coming generation of diverse leaders and thinkers across the industry to solve what is admittedly one of the most significant challenges of the modern era – cybersecurity.

Here Come the Cyber Cartels Mar 23, 2021

Show notes

This week we catch up with Tom Kellermann, Head of Cybersecurity Strategy at VMWare to discuss the explosion in, and growing aggression of, cyber cartels and the differences in attack motives across nation-state attackers and the offer that just can't be refused by the "untouchables". We also dive into the little known mission of the U.S. Secret Service and mandate to investigate financial crimes dating back to the Civil War - and the tell signs that cyber financial attacks foreshadow for future government attack vectors. (Learn more by getting a copy of the upcoming "Modern Bank Heists" report.) We also also take a look at the cyber road ahead and moving away from a backward-looking prevention approach to one that is more of a clandestine cyber offense strategy akin to a SuperMax prison that takes an inside-out approach to security, while also considering how to turn the tables on cyber cartels through disinformation strategies.

We pick up part two of our discussion with C2 Labs Co-Founder and CTO Travis Howerton looking at how the best laid plans start with the truth. And we explore the security path forward in a hyper-connected world where we move more heavily into IoT and everything is connected, dying air gaps and distributed VPNs, identity management as the new firewall, identifying clear lines of deterrence with nation-states particularly within no consequence environments, the continuing skills gap and the looming threat of quantum computing that the first one to solve will be the true winner in cyber ahead.

Understanding the "Who" in Cyber with Dr. Margaret Cunningham Feb 23, 2021

Show notes

In this episode we explore the intersection of cybersecurity and human behavior with returning guest, Dr. Margaret Cunningham, Principal Research Scientist for Human Behavior at Forcepoint X-Labs. For public and private sector organizations, cybersecurity has always been addressed as a technology-first challenge. However as cyber threats evolve, the lack of behavioral science becomes a growing issue in today's threat environment. We discuss the challenge of calculating and addressing risk, the importance of understanding human behavior vs. controlling it, and why most organizations fail to effectively measure and understand the true impact of cyber solutions. Additionally, we look at how the pandemic has created opportunities for expanding and diversifying the cyber workforce, and why it's critical for us to open the aperture of traditional security to include experts in fields such as human behavior.
