Cyber Security America

Join us for an engaging and thought-provoking episode of Cyber Security America, as we delve into the crucial topic of The Confusion Between Attack Surface Reduction (ASR) and Vulnerability Management (VM). Our expert guest, Jason Nordquist and Ken Gonzales, share their insights on the current state of cybersecurity and the challenges faced by organizations in this space. Discover the importance of this new paradigm, a critical yet often overlooked aspect of cybersecurity, and how it can help mitigate the risks posed by cyber threats. Don't miss out on this opportunity to gain valuable knowledge and actionable tips from a seasoned cybersecurity professional.

At the center of your cyber security universe is the Security Operations Center (SOC). This is supposed to be part of your 24/7 Managed Detection & Response (MDR) capability. But how do you know if your security operations team is running in a mature and highly capable manner. This is where the rubber meets the road when identifying and respond to security threats within your environment. What are the different delivery models, lessons learned, and best practices for driving improvements? We will also explore the increasingly sophisticated tactics used by threat actors, including their use of IoT devices to evade detection inside your network and pivot around undetected. Join us as we take our defense strategy to the next level of maturity, exploring what's working and what needs to change to stay ahead of the evolving threat landscape.

SEC cybersecurity risk governance rule and its impact on the market. Chris Hetner is the former Cyber Security Advisor to the Chair of the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and a former Senior Member of the US Department of Treasury Financial Banking Information Infrastructure Committee. He talks about the final process of approving the cybersecurity risk governance guidance, which will bring about a tectonic shift in the way cyber is governed. Don't miss this informative and engaging conversation about the complexities of cybersecurity governance and how the Board will need to adapt.

Protecting what you don't know about is impossible, and detecting unseen threats is equally challenging. In this episode, we delve into Threat Detection & Analytics, discussing the best practices for structuring a program, utilizing effective tools and techniques, and improving an organization's visibility, threat detection, and response capabilities through the use of frameworks and lessons learned.

In the world of Cyber Security, an essential component needed in the fight is a mature Threat Intelligence program tied to a strong Attack Surface Reduction (ASR) function. In this episode. We explore the world of Cyber Intelligence in the enterprise and in small business environments. We will learn from former military, intelligence, and NSA analysts working in the private sector now. What does good look like and what will the new year bring?

This year there has been a tsunami of security vulnerabilities and events that have caused major impact to governments and corporations around the world. We will focus on major security threats and how security programs adapted and responded. Real world accounts from cyber–Incident responders and threat analysts on what worked, what didn't, and lessons for the next incident. How does Machine Learning and AI fit into the modern battle space to protect our supply chains and more? (e.g. ChatGPT, Quantum Computers, Cloud Computing).
