There was a pretty extensive discussion on the Discord server during last week's show that we thought was appropriate to discuss on air. Josh kicked off the discussion by asking, "Anybody know any vulnerability remediation timeline guidance? Formalized, scientifically based stuff?" Josh further clarified, "just trying to find the science behind why and when I should give a crap about vulnerabilities". He finally stated, "I am troubled by the lack of empirically based standards of remediation timing, remediation prioritization, remediation adjustment/offsets based on compensating controls." This launched a multi-threaded conversation that touched on vulnerability management, how to pass various compliance audits/assessments, the many vendors that have latched on to "prioritization" of vulnerabilities, or simply "Risk-Based Vulnerability Management". Of course, PCI became a focal point for much of the discussion because of the mention of vulnerability management, compensating controls, remediation timing, etc. - all of which is addressed within the PCI DSS (despite what Quadling thinks). We're going to try to find consensus on the problem, possible solutions (based on recognized sources), and provide advice. Visit https://www.securityweekly.com/scw for all the latest episodes!

As attackers grow increasingly sophisticated, artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) applications in cybersecurity are no longer a "nice to have." But after years of being tossed around as a buzzword, it's time to demystify AI/ML to expose how far the technologies have come and how they can keep your business secure if leveraged correctly. We discuss what the terms mean, why they're critical for cybersecurity, and how/when to apply different types of AI/ML (including supervised, unsupervised, and deep learning) appropriately.

Following the release of our detection engine, Elastic opened up a new GitHub repo of our public detection rules. See: https://github.com/elastic/detection-rules. This is where our security intelligence and analytics team develops rules, creates issues, manages PR's - and by making the repo public we're inviting external contributors into the workflow. This gives contributors visibility into our development process and a clear path for rules to be released with the detection engine. If time allows, James can also talk about the preview we recently released of Event Query Language (EQL) in Elasticsearch. This is the correlation query language that Elastic adopted through the acquisition of Endgame last year to support threat hunting and threat detection use cases.
