Welcome to podcast 140 of the Security box. On this edition of the podcast, we've got two morons at least and a great topic that may still be relevant even though the SVB fiasco is now past us. We'll also have the landscape from people who found things of interest as well. We hope you enjoy the show!
Morons of the podcast
We have two morons of the podcast.
- Trial and error in Kuwait tells the story of a cyber security expert who almost went to jail for tweeting on something he found which is part of protecting everyone. The article itself is quite interesting, but what is more interesting is the fact that the bank didn't want this info out there to begin with. This came from Cyberscoop.
- Lawsuit Claims Mount Nittany Health Shared Private Patient Information with Facebook, Google (update1) comes to us from databreaches.net. The fact that you didn't even notify customers or anyone else about the issue is just mindblowing. This definitely doesn't make any sense.
The FDIC and banks
The FDIC did step up when it came to the SVB ordeal, but what about it and bank securituy? A watchdog says that they're not doing enough.
The article Watchdog warns FDIC fails to test banks’ cyberdefenses effectively is one that you should read. We'll be taking this article apart as part of the discussion. Do you think they're doing enough?
