He emphasizes the constant battle between creators of deepfakes and those developing detection tools.The conversation highlights several alarming instances where deepfakes have been used maliciously. Bhure recounts the case in 2020 where a 17-year-old student successfully fooled Twitter’s verification system with an AI-generated image of a non-existent political candidate. Another incident involved a Hong Kong firm losing $20 million due to a deepfake video impersonating the CFO during a Zoom call. These examples underline the serious implications of deepfake technology for misinformation and financial fraud.One core discussion point centers on the challenge of distinguishing between real and artificial content. Bhure explains that the advancement in AI and hardware capabilities makes it increasingly difficult for the naked eye to differentiate between genuine and fake images. Despite this, he mentions that algorithms focusing on minute details such as skin textures, mouth movements, and audio sync can still identify deepfakes with varying degrees of success.Marco Ciappelli raises the pertinent issue of how effective detection mechanisms can be integrated into social media platforms like Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. Bhure suggests a 'secure by design' approach, advocating for pre-upload verification of media content. He suggests that generative AI should be regulated to prevent misuse while recognizing that artificially generated content also has beneficial applications.The discussion shifts towards audio deepfakes, highlighting the complexity of their detection. According to Bhure, combining visual and audio detection can improve accuracy. He describes a potential method for audio verification, which involves profiling an individual’s voice over an extended period to identify any anomalies in future interactions.Businesses are not immune to the threat of deepfakes. Bhure notes that corporate sectors, especially media outlets, financial institutions, and any industry relying on digital communication, must stay vigilant. He warns that deepfake technology can be weaponized to bypass security measures, perpetuate misinformation, and carry out sophisticated phishing attacks.As technology forges ahead, Bhure calls for continuous improvement in detection techniques and the development of robust systems to mitigate risks associated with deepfakes.

It's a place where corporations, government agencies, and independent researchers converge to exchange ideas and push the boundaries of what's possible in securing our digital world. As the cybersecurity landscape continues to evolve, Black Hat remains a vital forum for addressing the challenges and opportunities that come with it.Sean and I engaged in thought-provoking conversations with 27 industry leaders during our coverage of Black Hat USA 2024 in Las Vegas, where the intersection of society and technology was at the forefront. These discussions underscored the urgent need to integrate cybersecurity deeply into our societal framework, not just within business operations. As our digital world grows more complex, the conversations revealed a collective understanding that the true challenge lies in transforming these strategic insights into actions that shape a safer and more resilient society, while also recognizing the changes in how society must adapt to the demands of advancing technology.As I walked through the bustling halls of Black Hat 2024, I was struck by the sheer dynamism of the cybersecurity landscape. The conversations, presentations, and cutting-edge technologies on display painted a vivid picture of where we stand today in our ongoing battle to secure the digital world. More than just a conference, Black Hat serves as a barometer for the state of cybersecurity—a reflection of our collective efforts to protect the systems that have become so integral to our daily lives. The Constant Evolution of ThreatsOne of the most striking observations from Black Hat 2024 is the relentless pace at which cyber threats are evolving. Every year, the threat landscape becomes more complex, with attackers finding new ways to exploit vulnerabilities in areas that were once considered secure. This year, it became evident that even the most advanced security measures can be circumvented if organizations become complacent. The need for continuous vigilance, constant updating of security protocols, and a proactive approach to threat detection has never been more critical.The discussions at Black Hat reinforced the idea that we are in a perpetual arms race with cybercriminals. They adapt quickly, leveraging emerging technologies to refine their tactics and launch increasingly sophisticated attacks. As defenders, we must be equally agile, continuously learning and evolving our strategies to stay one step ahead. Integration and Collaboration: Breaking Down SilosAnother key theme at Black Hat 2024 was the importance of breaking down silos within organizations. In an increasingly interconnected world, isolated security measures are no longer sufficient. The traditional boundaries between different teams—whether they be development, operations, or security—are blurring. To effectively combat modern threats, there needs to be seamless integration and collaboration across all departments.This holistic approach to cybersecurity is not just about technology; it’s about fostering a culture of communication and cooperation. By aligning the goals and efforts of various teams, organizations can create a unified front against cyber threats. This not only enhances security but also improves efficiency and resilience, allowing for quicker responses to incidents and a more robust defense posture. The Dual Role of AI in CybersecurityArtificial Intelligence (AI) was a major focus at this year’s event, and for good reason. AI has the potential to revolutionize cybersecurity, offering new tools and capabilities for threat detection, response, and prevention. However, it also introduces new challenges and risks. As AI systems become more prevalent, they themselves become targets for exploitation. This dual role of AI—both as a tool and a target—was a hot topic of discussion.The consensus at Black Hat was clear: while AI can significantly enhance our ability to protect against threats, we must also be vigilant in securing AI systems themselves. This requires a deep understanding of how these systems operate and where they may be vulnerable. It’s a reminder that every technological a

At Black Hat 2024 in Las Vegas, Sean Martin from On Location interviews Dror Liwer of Coro, uncovering the impressive strides Coro has made in creating a truly cohesive cybersecurity platform. This conversation reveals how Coro distinguishes itself in an industry saturated with buzzwords and inadequate solutions, particularly for smaller and mid-sized businesses.Meeting in VegasSean Martin starts the conversation by appreciating the vibrant atmosphere at the Black Hat Business Hall. The colorful Coro booth, coupled with the energetic team, sets the perfect backdrop for a discussion centered on platform innovation.Sean Martin: "Here we are, Dror. Fantastic seeing you here in Vegas."Dror Liwer: "It's where we meet."The Platform BuzzThe term “platform” has become a buzzword in the cybersecurity industry. Dror explains that many companies claim to offer platforms, but these so-called platforms often result from the integration of various point solutions, which don't communicate effectively with each other.Dror Liwer: “We built Coro as a platform and have been a platform for 10 years. It's kind of funny to see everybody now catching up and trying to pretend to be a platform.”Dror criticizes how companies use “platform” to create market confusion, explaining that a true platform requires seamless integration, a single endpoint agent, and a unified data lake.Defining a True PlatformDror and Sean delve deep into what makes Coro's platform genuinely innovative. Dror emphasizes that a real platform collects and processes data across multiple modules, providing a single pane of glass for operators. He contrasts this with other solutions that merely integrate various tools, resulting in operational complexity and inefficiencies.Dror Liwer: "A real platform is an engine that has a set of tools on top of it that work seamlessly together using a single pane of glass, a single endpoint agent, and a single data lake that shares all of the information across all of the different modules."The Role of DataData integration is a cornerstone of Coro’s platform. Dror explains that each module in Coro functions as both a sensor and protector, feeding data into the system and responding to anomalies in real-time.Dror Liwer: "The collection of data happens natively at the sensor. They feed all the data into one very large data lake."This unified approach allows Coro to eliminate the time-critical gap between event detection and response, a significant advantage over traditional systems that often rely on multiple disparate tools.Supporting MSPs and Mid-Market BusinessesOne of Coro's key missions is to support Managed Service Providers (MSPs) and mid-market businesses, sectors that have been largely overlooked by larger cybersecurity firms. By offering a more manageable and less costly platform, Coro empowers these providers to offer comprehensive cybersecurity services without the high operational costs traditionally associated with such tasks.Dror Liwer: “We are changing that economic equation, allowing MSPs to offer full cybersecurity solutions to their customers at an affordable price.”Fulfilling New RequirementsDror also sheds light on how Coro helps businesses comply with new regulatory requirements or cybersecurity mandates, often dictated by their position in the supply chain.Dror Liwer: "When this guy comes to you and says, ‘Hey, I need to now comply with this or do that,’ this is an opportunity to tell them, ‘Don't worry. I got you covered. I have Coro for you.’”ConclusionDror Liwer's insights during Black Hat 2024 highlight how Coro is not only addressing but revolutionizing the cybersecurity needs of small to mid-sized businesses and their MSP partners. By creating a true platform that reduces complexity and operational costs, Coro sets a new standard in the cybersecurity industry.Learn more about CORO: https://itspm.ag/coronet-30deNote: This story contains promotional content.

In the latest Brand Story episode, host Sean Martin chats with Brian Reed, Mobile Security Evangelist, and Chris Roeckl, Chief Product Officer at AppDome, during the OWASP Global AppSec event in Lisbon. The episode dives into pivotal aspects of mobile app security and consumer expectations.Brian Reed articulates how AppDome collaborates with OWASP to tackle mobile app security challenges. He underscores the significant role consumers play in these endeavors. According to AppDome's annual survey, consumer feedback is indispensable, revealing that a staggering 97% of consumers would abandon a brand after an insecure app experience, while 95% would advocate for a brand offering a secure experience. This highlights the stark consequences of neglecting mobile security.Chris Roeckl elaborates on how AppDome’s annual survey, spanning four years, has amassed data from over 120,000 consumers across 12 countries. This wealth of information provides a clear trend: consumers increasingly prioritize security, particularly in banking, e-wallet, healthcare, and retail apps. Interestingly, while social media is not at the forefront of security concerns, it is rapidly becoming a focus area as users grow more conscious of account security and privacy.The discussion brings to light how brands can effectively communicate their security protocols to consumers. Reed and Roeckl suggest transparency through dedicated web pages, direct email outreach, and in-app notifications. This communication helps build trust and reassures consumers that their security concerns are being addressed.The conversation also touches on the integration of security into the development lifecycle. Developers often face the challenge of ensuring robust security without compromising the user experience. Reed mentions the importance of making security processes seamless and non-invasive for developers. By leveraging machine learning and AI, AppDome aims to automate many security tasks, allowing developers to focus on creating innovative, user-friendly applications.Moreover, Roeckl points out that a holistic approach is essential. This means incorporating input from various teams within an organization - from product leaders focusing on user engagement to engineers ensuring crash-free applications and cybersecurity teams safeguarding data integrity. This collaborative effort ensures that the final product not only meets but exceeds consumer expectations.The insights shared in the episode are a call to action for businesses to prioritize mobile security. With six billion humans using mobile apps globally, the stakes are higher than ever. Brands must recognize the direct correlation between secure mobile experiences and customer loyalty. By investing in robust security measures and effectively communicating these efforts, businesses can foster a secure and trustworthy environment for their users.Listeners are encouraged to download the full AppDome report for a deeper understanding of consumer attitudes towards mobile app security.
