Guest: Phillip Miller, Vice President, Chief Information Security Officer, QurpleOn LinkedIn | https://linkedin.com/in/pemiller____________________________Host: Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine [@ITSPmagazine] and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast [@RedefiningCyber]On ITSPmagazine | https://www.itspmagazine.com/sean-martinView This Show's Sponsors___________________________Episode NotesIn this new episode of the Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast, host Sean Martin dove into an enlightening conversation with Phillip Miller, a figure well-versed in the nexus between cybersecurity, technology, and agriculture. This dialogue shed light on the less-acknowledged side of farming—a sector increasingly reliant on technological advancements and, consequently, the need for robust cybersecurity measures.Agriculture, often perceived as a traditional field far removed from the high-tech buzz of the modern world, is undergoing a quiet revolution. With innovations ranging from drone technology to sophisticated IoT systems for monitoring crop health, the farm of the future is here.Phillip, with his diverse background ranging from app development to infrastructure and cybersecurity, brings a unique perspective to the table. His dual role as a farmer and technologist allows him to see firsthand the impact of technology on agriculture and the critical importance of cybersecurity in safeguarding this vital industry. The conversation explored how the adoption of technology in farming goes beyond mere mechanization.Today, tractors are internet-connected, and irrigation systems can be managed remotely, allowing for a level of precision farming previously unattainable. However, this technological leap comes with its risks. The cybersecurity vulnerabilities inherent in many modern systems pose a significant threat to the reliability and safety of food production. Phillip's insights into how these technological tools have transformed the farming landscape are fascinating.From increased efficiency and reduced labor requirements to the enhanced ability to predict and respond to environmental conditions, technology offers numerous benefits. Yet, as Phillip pointed out, the reliance on tech also introduces complexity, particularly when it comes to securing farm data against cyber threats. His experiences reflect a broader trend where industries traditionally viewed as non-technical are now at the forefront of adopting cutting-edge technologies.The discussion between Sean Martin and Phillip Miller underscores a crucial message: cybersecurity is not just a concern for typical tech sectors but is equally vital in areas like agriculture that are becoming increasingly digital. As we move towards more technologically driven farming practices, the need for cyber resilience in agriculture cannot be overstated. This episode serves as a reminder of the interconnectedness of technology, security, and the basic human need for food, highlighting the evolving role of cybersecurity in every aspect of our lives.Key Questions AddressedHow do we deliver better outcomes for our businesses?How do those experiences impact how you view Technology and cyber security on the farm?What can the CISO not on a farm learn from the farming CISO?___________________________Watch this and other videos on ITSPmagazine's YouTube ChannelRedefining CyberSecurity Podcast with Sean Martin, CISSP playlist:📺 https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnYu0psdcllS9aVGdiakVss9u7xgYDKYqITSPmagazine YouTube Channel:📺 https://www.youtube.com/@itspmagazineBe sure to share and subscribe!___________________________ResourcesHacking Success: how owners and officers should cultivate policy for cybersecurity and use of artificial intelligence (book): https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/hacking-success-phillip-miller/1145240507?ean=9798990386402___________________________To see and hear more Redefining CyberSecurity content on ITSPmagazine, visit: https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-cybersecurity-podcastAre you interested in sponsoring this show with an ad placement in the podcast?Learn More 👉 https://itspm.ag/podadplc Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

THE FOUR FOUR-LEGGED ADVENTURERS + ONEOn the outskirts of a big city, there lived four little dogs who took a walk around the neighborhood every day to stretch their legs with their owners. They spent the rest of the time on armchairs or lying in the sun in the garden.In a corner near the wall, behind the house, hidden by a tree, there were some old used and slightly broken objects. One of the dogs, named Tachi, decided to go exploring to see if there was anything interesting and found what seemed to be an old ball — but a bit strange, with a kind of leg."What could it be? It looks like a suspicious object!" she thought. "Better call reinforcements immediately. Woof, woof, woof!"The other three rushed over, barking — just in case there was someone or something to scare off."A ball, a ball!" they shouted and got into position to play.The most mischievous and smallest in size, Pippa, started to kick the object with her little paws but stopped immediately exclaiming, "Oh, but how hard this ball is!""It's hard indeed, silly, can't you see it's a globe?" said Luca and Lillo, the other two members of the family, while Tachi remained thoughtful and not entirely convinced.But once it was clear what it was, they all started to observe it as, magically turning on itself, it showed distant countries they had heard about from their owners who, to tell the truth, were great wanderers!At the end of the day, after many adventures, naps, a walk at sunset, and a good dinner, they all went to bed; but thinking about the globe, none of the four could sleep much. As soon as they closed their eyes, they began to travel with their imagination and thought of exciting adventures that transported them to unknown and fantastic places to visit.In the morning, there was a lot of whispering. "Slept well?" they asked each other. "No, I traveled to unknown countries," "I thought of flying," "I of sailing the oceans," "I climbed very high mountains."Thinking and thinking, they decided it would be really nice to turn these dreams into reality. They continued to chatter, and after a few hours, they all agreed and pronounced the fateful words: "We will be the four four-legged adventurers, traveling the world, all for one and one for all." The decision was made; but how could they start the adventure?Luca thought of the old wise dachshund Ettore, who lived in the neighborhood and was a storyteller wizard by trade. They met him almost every day during their sunset walks. Ettore, sitting in front of his house, would narrate with sparkling eyes stories of fantastic travels to a group of puppies with their owners; all intent on listening.Once they heard him tell about Paris and its majestic Eiffel Tower rising into the sky above the clouds, the imposing monuments, the huge gardens to visit and then, attention attention, croissants with butter and jam for breakfast, baguettes filled with all sorts of things for lunch, and succulent and tasty bones for dinner."Here’s who could help us: Ettore the Wizard Dachshund!” they exclaimed with joy.Immediately, sneaking out of their garden, they passed through a small gap in the fence and headed towards Ettore's house. They arrived at five o'clock sharp, and Ettore invited them in for tea with cookies. The four adventurers, between one cookie and another, told him about the globe they found by chance and their desire for adventures.The wizard dachshund, who had already guessed everything, said, "With a spell, I can accompany you around the world and visit a place of your choice."The fantastic four four-legged adventurers shouted in unison, "Let's go to Paris!"“With pleasure," replied Ettore.All ready for departure, the wizard dachshund took his super magic wand, which he tapped three times on the ground "toc toc toc", and at the words "Woofwoof and Woofwoof" small glowing stars came out; each one took a dog by the paw, lifting them into the air, and following the wizard, they set off for the adventure.At first, they closed their eyes in fear, but: "Look, look!” said their guide, and opening their eyes they saw they were flying over oceans, seas, mountains, lakes, cities, and enchanted forests: "How wonderful!”Soon, suddenly, in the distance appeared the city of Paris. Floating like feathers in the wind, in a flash, they arrived almost touching the Eiffel Tower, which with its height, pierced the clouds passing through the middle. The group landed on the roofs of Paris: “How wonderful, Paris is really magical and fascinating!"As they strolled through the streets of Montmartre, they decided to send a postcard to their owners to let them know about their trip.Address:To our house on the other side of the ocean.Third street on the right.Ninth on the left.Garden with lemon tree.Squirrels running around.Possible hummingbird sighting.City of who knows, go find out.Shipping method: Fast and magical light beam.Insured.Signature required upon delivery.After sending the postcard, they saw the famous Ferris wheel and wi

Stemming from a career-long pursuit of understanding how learning experiences can become deeper and more impactful, Wetzler identified a pervasive pattern of missed opportunities for learning—from the unspoken wisdom of people in our lives. This observation led to the inception of *Ask*, which aims to unlock the potential for breakthroughs in leadership and life by fostering deeper connections and understanding through the simple yet profound act of asking questions.The "Ask" Approach: A Deep DiveWetzler elaborates on the five key practices encapsulated in the "Ask" approach—*Choose Curiosity, Making it Safe, Asking Quality Questions, Listening to Learn,* and *Reflect and Reconnect*. These practices are not only transformative in personal development but are essential skills in leadership, fostering environments where open communication and mutual understanding flourish.1. Choose Curiosity: Breaking free from the certainty trap to harness the power of curiosity.2. Making it Safe: Creating an environment where people feel comfortable sharing their insights and stories.3. Asking Quality Questions: Distinguishing between surface-level inquiries and questions that lead to deeper understanding.4. Listening to Learn: Attuning oneself to not just the words spoken but the emotions and actions that accompany them.5. Reflect and Reconnect: Processing the information gathered and following up to deepen connections and ensure understanding.Application Beyond the Pages: Social Media and AIThe conversation navigates through the contemporary challenges of social media and artificial intelligence, platforms where the nuances of asking and listening are often lost. Wetzler advocates for using these tools to enhance rather than hinder our curiosity. From utilizing AI for brainstorming questions to fostering constructive dialogues on social media, there are ways to leverage technology to encourage genuine inquiry and learning.A Sociology of Communication: The Vital Role of InquiryWetzler's insights resonate profoundly within the sociology of communication. In a society where digital interactions often substitute personal connections, the act of asking meaningful questions and truly listening stands as a beacon of authentic human interaction. By embracing curiosity and fostering an environment conducive to open dialogue, we can transcend the often superficial exchanges that characterize our digital age, tapping into the rich tapestry of human experience and knowledge.The Transformative Power of QuestionsThis conversation between Marco Ciappelli and Jeff Wetzler serves as a powerful reminder of the transformative potential that lies in asking the right questions. *Ask* not only invites readers to rekindle their innate curiosity but also equips them with the tools to build deeper, more meaningful connections. In an era defined by rapid technological change and impersonal digital interactions, Wetzler’s message is a simple call to reclaim the simple yet profound power of human curiosity.About the BookToo often, we don’t find out what’s truly on others’ hearts and minds because we don’t know how to ask the right questions in the right ways. Co-founder of Transcend and former international business consultant and Teach for America executive Jeff Wetzler wants to show you how to fix that. In Ask, he brings you a powerful method called The Ask Approach™, based on a simple premise: that tapping into what other people truly think, know, and feel is a game-changing superpower. In Section I, Wetzler reveals the most common things that people think and feel but often keep to themselves, as well as the key reasons why they choose to withhold information that could be valuable to you and your organization.Section II delves into the five steps of the Ask Approach, each answering an essential question.Choose Curiosity: How can you awaken your curiosity to

Today organizations have a large part of their environment outside of their control. They have authentication, email, data, code—some organizations have the majority of their most important assets in cloud and SaaS applications. And yet the security team does not have effective tooling to investigate across this surface.So when a complex breach unfolds, an organization can find themselves scrambling. Why?The first problem is cloud scale. The amount of telemetry that is produced daily across this surface is extraordinary. The security tooling a team would use is not appropriate for the sheer volume of data that needs to be collected.The second problem is cloud complexity. Correlating cloud data into contextual alerts and insights that teams can act on is a massive task that requires deep understanding of each environment—which leads into the third problem:Most teams lack cloud expertise—and the DevOps teams they often turn to for cloud knowledge lack security expertise. Nobody is holding all the cards when it comes to detecting, investigating and responding to threats.We have spent years building a comprehensive solution that addresses the challenges facing modern SOC teams and the transforming enterprises they're tasked with securing. It distills our knowledge to elevate their cloud security capacity and capabilities. So the now SecOps can have broad visibility across clouds and SaaS—because our solution harvests all the needed telemetry and stores it for years for a minimal cost.When an incident happens, they can easily answer the questions that are fundamental to a modern organization’s security and resilience: Did anyone get in? Where did they go? What did they do while inside? What did they take? —because our Cloud Attack Scenario Library filled with the latest intelligence to root out cloud and SaaS threats.And they'll possess the speed of Mitiga's automation—to dramatically accelerate detection, investigation and response—minimizing impact.With Mitiga, the SOC is well equipped to deal with cloud threats.Learn more about Mitiga: https://itspm.ag/mitiga-5zzNote: This story contains promotional content.

Aembit is the first Workload Identity and Access Management Platform. It discovers, enforces, and audits workload access. By using native identities and short-lived credentials, we eliminate the need for secrets scanning and credential rotation. We let your teams focus on building your software, without worrying about sharing API keys or misusing vaults. An Aembit access policy enforces authorized access in three steps: First, Aembit cryptographically verifies workload identity, and validates access rights. This works for the most complex environments like an AWS serverless app accessing Snowflake or Salesforce. Second, Aembit implements workload Zero Trust by adding conditional access. For example, Aembit can check CrowdStrike or Wiz posture assessment before authorizing access. Finally, Aembit issues access credentials. Aembit automatically injects short-lived credentials into requests with no burdensome code changes required by the dev team.The benefits of using Aembit include significant time savings and reduced complexity. This allows engineering teams to move faster in building software and APIs that help companies automate more and build great products. From a security standpoint, Aembit also mitigates a growing attack surface (workload credential compromise) by allowing companies to go secretless using short-lived dynamic access credentials, as opposed to long lived tokens. There's no more credential reuse across multiple workloads. They can also enable Zero Trust conditional access for workload access. If the workload isn't being actively managed by their cloud security tool, it shouldn't get access. And with Aembit, they now have a highly compliant automated system of record to keep track of every workload requesting access, which is huge for audit and compliance requirements.Learn more about Aembit: https://itspm.ag/aembit-1oqNote: This story contains promotional content.
