The Complexities, Configurations, and Challenges in Cloud Security - Scott Piper - ASW #304
Building cloud native apps doesn't mean you're immune to dealing with legacy systems. Cloud services have changed significantly over the last decade, both in the security controls available to them and the sheer volume of services that CSPs provide.

Cybersecurity Success is Business Success - Theresa Lanowitz - ESW #380
Secure by design is more than just AppSec - it addresses how the whole business designs systems and processes to be effective and resilient. The latest report from LevelBlue on Cyber Resilience reveals security programs that are reactive, ill-equipped, and disconnected from IT and business leaders. Most security problems are out of security teams' hands. Addressing them requires input, buy-in, and action from business leaders and IT. Security cannot afford to be separate from the rest of the organization. In this interview, we'll discuss how we could potentially solve some of these issues with Theresa Lanowitz from LevelBlue.

Discovering a common Salesforce mistake launched this security professional's career - Aaron Costello - ESW #379
Aaron was already a skilled bug hunter and working at HackerOne as a triage analyst at the time. What he discovered can't even be described as a software bug or a vulnerability. This type of finding has probably resulted in more security incidents and breaches than any other category: the unintentional misconfiguration. There's a lot of conversation right now about the grey space around 'shared responsibility'. In our news segment later, we'll also be discussing the difference between secure design and secure defaults. The recent incidents revolving around Snowflake customers getting compromised via credential stuffing attacks is a great example of this. Open AWS S3 buckets are probably the best known example of this problem. At what point is the service provider responsible for customer mistakes? When 80% of customers are making expensive, critical mistakes? Doesn't the service provider have a responsibility to protect its customers (even if it's from themselves)? These are the kinds of issues that led to Aaron getting his current job as Chief of SaaS Security Research at AppOmni, and also led to him recently finding another common misconfiguration - this time in ServiceNow's products. Finally, we'll discuss the value of a good bug report, and how it can be a killer addition to your resume if you're interested in this kind of work! Segment Resources: Aaron's blog about the ServiceNow data exposure. The ServiceNow blog, thanking AppOmni for its support in uncovering the issue. Show Notes: https://securityweekly.com/esw-379
Community Knowledge Sharing with CyberNest - Ben Siegel - ESW #379
For this interview, Ben from CyberNest joins us to talk about one of my favorite subjects: information sharing in infosec. There are so many amazing skills, tips, techniques, and intel that security professionals have to share. Sadly, a natural corporate reluctance to share information viewed as privileged and private has historically had a chilling effect on information sharing. We'll discuss how to build such a community, how to clear the historical hurdles with information sharing, and how to monetize it without introducing bias and compromising the integrity of the information shared.

Run Your Security Program Like an Election Campaign - Kush Sharma - BSW #367
Does the CISO need to act like a politician? Negotiating budgets, communicating risks, and selling your strategy across the organization does sound a little like a politician. And if that's the case, are you hiring the right campaign staff? Kush Sharma, former CISO for CPR, City of Toronto, and Saputo, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss why you should run your security program like an election campaign. Kush will discuss the other positions you need to hire, not just the technical positions, to help you budget, communicate, and sell your strategy.

How to Attain Zero Trust - Rob Allen - BSW #366
The zero-trust security model has been billed as an ultra-safe defense against emerging, unrecognized and well-known threats. Unlike perimeter security, it doesn't assume people inside an organization are automatically safe. Instead, it requires every user and device -- inside and out -- to be authorized before any access is granted. Sounds enticing, but deployments require major architectural, hardware, and software changes to be successful. Rob Allen, Chief Performance Officer at ThreatLocker, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss how their Zero Trust Endpoint Protection Platform can start to help you attain Zero Trust from your endpoints by: Blocking Untrusted Software, Ringfencing™ Applications, and Dynamically Controlling Network Traffic This segment is sponsored by ThreatLocker.

Oh the Places You'll Go (in Cybersecurity) - Jason Shockey - ESW #377
We've been hearing a lot lately about how the talent gap in cybersecurity is much more complex than some folks have been making it out to be. While making six figures after going through a six week boot camp might be overselling the cybersecurity job market a bit, it is definitely a complex space with lots of opportunities. Fortunately, we have folks building passion projects like My Cyber Path. When Jason transitioned into cyber from the military, he took note of the path he took. He also noticed how different the path was for many of his peers. Inspired by NIST NICE and other programs designed to help folks get a start in cyber, he created My Cyber Path. My Cyber Path has a very organized approach. There are 12 paths outlined, which fall into 4 main areas. After taking a personality test, this tool suggests the best paths for you. Hmmm, this sounds a lot like the sorting hat in Harry Potter, and there are 4 "houses" you could get put into... coincidence?

Cybersecurity: is the talent gap a myth? Is the industry delusional? - ESW #376
This week, the cybersecurity industry's most basic assumptions under scrutiny.
