How attackers exploit identity gaps to get into your cloud and SaaS - Paul Nguyen - ESW #401
You might know them from their excellent research work on groups like Scattered Spider, or their refreshing branding/marketing style, but Permiso is laying some impressive groundwork for understanding and defending against identity and cloud-based attacks. In this interview, we talk with co-founder and co-CEO Paul Nguyen about understanding the threats against some of cybercriminals' favorite attack surface, insider threats, and non-human identity compromise. Segment Resources: This blog post from our threat research team on Scattered Spider shows how threat actors move laterally in an environment across identity providers, Iaas, PaaS and SaaS environments, and how this lateral movement ultimately creates blind spots for many security teams This great talk by Ian Ahl, from fwd:cloudsec 2024, touches on a lot of great TTPs used by attackers in IDPs and in the cloud Another blog, When AI Gets Hijacked: Exploiting Hosted Models for Dark Roleplaying and another, What Security Teams Can Learn From The Rippling/Deel Lawsuit: Intent Lies in Search Logs Show Notes: https://securityweekly.com/esw-401
Soft skills for engineers - Evgeniy Kharam - ESW #401
When we use the phrase "talent gap" in cybersecurity, we're usually talking about adding headcount. For this interview, however, we're focusing on a gap that is evident within existing teams and practitioners - the often misunderstood soft skills gap. Side note: I really hate the term "soft skills". How about we call them "fundamental business skills", or "invaluable career advancement skills"? Hmm, doesn't quite roll off the tongue the same. Soft skills can impact everything, as they impose the limits of how we interact with our world. That goes for co-worker interactions, career advancements, and how we're perceived by our peers and community. It doesn't matter how brilliant you might be - without soft skills, your potential could be severely limited. Did you know that soft skills issues contributed to the Equifax breach? We'll also discuss how fear is related to some of the same limitations and challenges as soft skills.

Vulnerability Prioritization Can Produce Better Business Outcomes - Greg Fitzgerald, Steve Lodin - BSW #389
Vulnerability prioritization, the final frontier. Many say they do it, but do they really? It takes way more than vulnerability data to truly prioritize vulnerabilities. Greg Fitzgerald, Co-Founder and CXO at Sevco Security, and Steve Lodin , Vice President, Information Security at Sallie Mae, join Business Security Weekly to dig in. We'll discuss the importance of context, including asset inventory and configuration management, in truly prioritizing vulnerabilities. But it's not that easy.

Avoiding Appsec's Worst Practices - ASW #324
We take advantage of April Fools to look at some of appsec's myths, mistakes, and behaviors that lead to bad practices. It's easy to get trapped in a status quo of chasing CVEs or discussing which direction to shift security. But scrutinizing decimal points in CVSS scores or rearranging tools misses the opportunity for more strategic thinking. We satirize some worst practices in order to have a more serious discussion about a future where more software is based on secure designs.

The Pace of Investments Requires Better Risk Management, Boards Challenged, & More - BSW #388
Cybersecurity teams were under increasing strain in 2024. To alleviate this burden, 2025 will see greater reliance on automation to streamline workflows, enhance threat detection, and accelerate incident response. But some of these investments may come with risks. Greg Sullivan, Founding Partner at CIOSO Global, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss how the pace of investment will require better risk management. Greg will cover topics, including: The seismic C-level shift in interest will require a top-down approach to cybersecurity. The focus will shift from external cybersecurity solutions to building in-house resilience. The critical criteria needed to drive more refined defenses, smarter resource allocation, and wiser cybersecurity investments.

Finding a Use for GenAI in AppSec - Keith Hoodlet - ASW #323
LLMs are helping devs write code, but is it secure code? How are LLMs helping appsec teams? Keith Hoodlet returns to talk about where he's seen value from genAI, where it fits in with tools like source code analysis and fuzzers, and where its limitations mean we'll be relying on humans for a while. Those limitations don't mean appsec should dismiss LLMs as a tool. It means appsec should understand how things like context windows might limit a tool's security analysis to a few files, leaving a security architecture review to humans.

We need better detection feedback loops - Michael Mumcuoglu - ESW #399
It feels like forever ago, but in the mid-2010s, we collectively realized, as an industry, that prevention was never going to be enough. Some attacks were always going to make their way through. Then ransomware got popular and really drove this point home. Detection engineering is a tough challenge, however. Where do we start? Which attacks should we build detections for? How much of the MITRE ATT&CK matrix do we need to cover? How often do these detections need to be reviewed and updated? Wait, are any of our detections even working? In this interview with Michael Mumcuoglu, we'll discuss where SecOps teams get it wrong. We'll discuss common pitfalls, and strategies for building more resilient and effective detections. Again, as an industry, we need to understand why ransomware attacks keep going unnoticed, despite attackers using routine techniques and tools that we see over and over and over again. Show Notes: https://securityweekly.com/esw-399
Building the SOC of the Future - JP Bourget - ESW #399
What does a mature SecOps team look like? There is pressure to do more with less staff, increase efficiency and reduce costs. JP Bourget's experience has led him to believe that the answer isn't a tool upgrade, it's better planning, architecture, and process. In this interview, we'll discuss some of the common mistakes SecOps teams make, and where to start when building the SOC of the future. Show Notes: https://securityweekly.com/esw-399

Breaking Down Human-Element Breaches To Improve Cybersecurity - Jinan Budge - BSW #387
Organizations continue to suffer from security breaches, too many of which contain a human element. But there's no consistent definition of the risk posed by human-related breaches, and recommendations are often limited to security awareness and training (SA&T). Understanding the depth and breadth of human-related breaches is critical to implementing adequate security controls within organizations. Jinan Budge, Research Director at Forrester, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss their Best Practice Report on Deconstructing Human-Element Breaches. Jinan will cover the breadth of human-related breaches, including: Social Engineering Human Error Loss/Theft of Physical Assets Social Media Compromise Insider Risk Deep Fake Scams Gen AI Misuse Narrative Attacks and why Security and Awareness Training is not the sole answer to solving human-related breaches.

Penetration Tests: useful, pointless, harmful, required, ineffective? - Phillip Wylie - ESW #398
Penetration tests are probably the most common and recognized cybersecurity consulting services. Nearly every business above a certain size has had at least one pentest by an external firm. Here's the thing, though - the average ransomware attack looks an awful lot like the bog standard pentest we've all been purchasing or delivering for years. Yet thousands of orgs every year fall victim to these attacks. What's going on here? Why are we so bad at stopping the very thing we've been training against for so long? This Interview with Phillip Wylie will provide some insight into this! Spoiler: a lot of the issues we had 10, even 15 years ago remain today.

AlmaLinux and the State of Open Source Enterprise Linux - benny Vasquez - ESW #397
And now, for something completely different! I've always urged the importance for practitioners to understand the underlying technology that they're challenged with defending. When we're yelling at the Linux admins and DevOps folks to "just patch it", what does that process entail? How do those patches get applied? When and how are they released in the first place? This is often one of the sticking points when security folks get nervous about "going open source", as if 90% of the code in their environments doesn't already come from some open source project. It's a legitimate concern however - without a legal contract, and some comfort level that a paid support team is actually going to fix critical vulnerabilities, how do we develop trust or a relationship with an open source project? In this interview, benny Vasquez, the Chair of the board of directors for AlmaLinux, will fill in some of the gaps for us, and help us understand how an open source project can not only be trusted, but in many cases may be more responsive to security teams' needs than a commercial vendor.

First Do No Harm - Security Challenges in Healthcare - Ed Gaudet - ESW #396

The economic prediction has mostly come true, with 9 out of 10 of the most highly valued companies being tech companies. The industry disruption didn't materialize in some cases, and outright failed in others. Healthcare seems to be one of these 'disruption-resistant' areas. Ed joins us today to discuss why that might be, and what the paths towards securing the healthcare industry might look like.
