Cloud, DevOps, Kubernetes - the world has gone crazy. We don't have servers anymore - we have workloads, instances, and serverless. We have CI/CD pipelines. These workloads are distributed, immutable, and ephemeral (aka 'DIE' - hi Sounil!) in many cases. Today, we chat with Jimmy Vo about what it was like, as a detection engineer, to come from a traditional banking environment and suddenly get thrown into a world full of 'cloud-first' startups.

Definitions of the word intelligence include a collection of information of military or political value as well as the ability to acquire and apply knowledge or skills. In cybersecurity, when we possess intelligence, we feed that data in our Security Operations Center (SOC) to further analyze the risk present. In this case, the risk is based on the probability of threats materializing and the impact they would have on the organization. We're calling the output of that SOC Cyber Risk Intelligence. Cyber Risk Intelligence is the ability to think holistically about risk and provide information that decision makers can act on...not just analyze. Traditional Vendor Risk Management (VRM) processes focus on the gap, which is essentially information that needs to be further analyzed against the risk to the business. This is an additional step that takes time and effort, especially when different compliance frameworks and threats are constantly emerging.

Modern tech stacks are becoming increasingly complex puzzles of components built in-house and sourced from third-party vendors. With DNS at the center of the infrastructure, and staging and production being sometimes just minutes apart, scanning for CVEs is not enough to stay on top of web threats. There are lots of critical things traditional app scanners won't catch, like dangling DNS records, subdomain takeover and open S3 buckets. To keep their growing attack surface secure, companies need to combine crowdsourced vulnerability detection with solutions that detect outliers and anomalies in their software - before these become an attack vector. In this episode we'll discuss: - Why hunting for vulnerabilities is no longer enough to stay on top of threats - Vulnerability Management vs Attack Surface Management - How security teams can adapt their vulnerability management process to modern dev cycles.

2021 was the most active year in federal cybersecurity policy. Ever. The Biden administration used executive orders, new regulations, public/private partnerships and novel law enforcement strategies to shore up federal systems and engage with industry. Meanwhile, an otherwise active year in Congress took a hit when several major pieces of legislation like incident reporting mandates and federal cybersecurity reform were left of the NDAA. SC Media government reporter Derek B. Johnson will discuss what came out last year's flurry and what we can expect Congress to prioritize in 2022.

I once told my college advisor that I wanted to double major in computer science and jazz performance. She laughed at me. Instead, I jumped into a career in IT and played jazz - without a degree in either. Turns out, that was fine - the industry valued experience and results over academic achievement. Today's guest *has* two degrees, one in fine arts, one in pre-law, and that's also fine. If there's anything I've learned in InfoSec, it's the mind that matters most, less so the degrees or certs on your wall. Angela Marafino gets cybersecurity and understands what makes it tick.

When it comes to detecting the next cyber breach, would your organization pass the test? Of course, in real life, you not only need to ace the practice exam – you need to test against the real threats. So when SE Labs recently conducted the industry's first network detection and response (NDR) test against NSX NDR, they used a range of advanced persistent threats designed to compromise systems and penetrate target networks in the same way as criminals and other attackers breach systems and networks. And the result? VMware NSX Network Detection and Response (NDR) was able to detect every targeted attack and tracked each of the hostile activities that occurred during the attacks. Every. One.

Use of encryption is on the rise: both by cyber defenders and the attackers they're tasked to defend against. Encryption has reached near-full adoption by internal teams hoping to implement stronger security and privacy practices. Simultaneously, attackers are using the same mechanisms to hide their malicious activity from the defender's line of sight. ExtraHop's Jamie Moles, Senior Technical Marketing Manager joins Enterprise Security Weekly to discuss the various techniques attackers are using to cover their tracks using encryption, addresses common objections about decryption, and makes the case for decryption as a path toward faster, more confident defense. Jamie shares a demonstration of how the ExtraHop Reveal(x) network detection and response platform securely decrypts network traffic in order to successfully halt a breach in progress.
