We welcome Andrew Wertkin, Chief Strategy Officer of BlueCat, a DNS, DHCP, & IPAM (DDI) security company. Like backup, properly securing these parts of your infrastructure are both extremely important – and everyone thinks it's boring. I knew nothing about DDI before this recording and I learned a ton about the ways that bad actors use these technologies to either attack or exploit your company. Using technologies like Bluecat can actually stop ransomware in its tracks! Andrew explains exactly how ransomware attackers use DNS for Command and Control, and how products like Bluecat can be used to stop them in ther tracks. This is a great episode with a lot of really good information.
