Ep 1618Book | Irreducibly Complex Systems: An Introduction to Continuous Security Testing | A Conversation with Author David Hunt | Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast with Sean Martin

Guest: David Hunt, CTO at PreludeOn Linkedin | https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-hunt-b72864200/On Twitter | https://twitter.com/privateducky____________________________Host: Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine [@ITSPmagazine] and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast [@RedefiningCyber]On ITSPmagazine | https://www.itspmagazine.com/itspmagazine-podcast-radio-hosts/sean-martin____________________________This Episode’s SponsorsImperva | https://itspm.ag/imperva277117988Pentera | https://itspm.ag/penteri67a___________________________Episode NotesIn this episode of Redefining Cybersecurity, host Sean Martin engages in a thought-provoking conversation with David Hunt, author of the book, Irreducibly Complex Systems: An Introduction to Continuous Security Testing, to explore the topic presented in the book.David introduces the concept of irreducibly complex systems, explaining that continuous security testing requires a system where all the individual components must be functioning correctly for the system to work. He uses the analogy of a mousetrap to illustrate this idea, highlighting that removing even one component renders the entire system useless.The conversation also digs into the challenges of testing in changing environments and the need to understand how defenses perform during specific time frames. They discuss the value of continuous security testing in gaining visibility into the effectiveness of security defenses and shedding light on techniques used by malicious actors.Sean, having been a software quality assurance engineer in previous roles, and David, having held numerous roles in the commercial, public, and non-profit realms, explore the differences between continuous security testing and traditional security testing. They explain that continuous testing focuses on evaluating how defenses respond to attacks, rather than testing offensive capabilities. Moreover, continuous security testing operates at complete scale on production systems, unlike traditional testing which is often limited to development environments.They also discuss the importance of overcoming the dichotomy of skill sets required for continuous security testing. David explains that the offensive skills needed to create effective tests and attacks are often separate from the software skills needed to build a safe, high-assurance command and control center.Throughout the episode, Sean and David provide listeners with valuable insights into the world of continuous security testing and its significance in the evolving cybersecurity landscape. They emphasize the need for organizations to adopt this approach in order to gain better visibility and understanding of their defenses in the face of emerging threats.There’s a lot to take from this conversation, including an extreme example of how continuous security testing results have redefined cybersecurity in David’s organization.____________________________About the bookContinuous security testing (CST) is a new strategy for validating your cyber defenses. We buy security products that promise to protect us, like EDR, but how do we know they're working? CST takes the stance that endpoints are the center of your infrastructure universe. Whether the operating system verticalizes defense or a third party is bolted on, it is the job of the endpoint to protect itself from within. This new concept dictates testing should occur around the clock, in production and at scale. It provides an open model that others can use to approach testing and finally answer the question: Do you know with certainty that your defenses will protect you against the latest threats?____________________________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!____________________________ResourcesIrreducibly Complex Systems: An Introduction to Continuous Security Testing (Book): https://www.yellowduckpublishing.com/books.html?title=icsd____________________________To see and hear more Redefining CyberSecurity content on ITSPmagazine, visit:https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-cybersecurity-podcastAre you interested in sponsoring an ITSPmagazine Channel?👉 https://www.itspmagazine.com/sponsor-the-itspmagazine-podcast-network Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Ep 1616Book | The New Technology State: How Our Digital Dreams Became Societal Nightmares-and What We Can Do about It | A Conversation with Author Bill Raduchel | Redefining Society with Marco Ciappelli

Guest: Bill Raduchel, AuthorOn LinkedIn | https://www.linkedin.com/in/wjraduchel/____________________________Host: Marco Ciappelli, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine [@ITSPmagazine] and Host of Redefining Society PodcastOn ITSPmagazine | https://www.itspmagazine.com/itspmagazine-podcast-radio-hosts/marco-ciappelli_____________________________This Episode’s SponsorsBlackCloak 👉 https://itspm.ag/itspbcwebBugcrowd 👉 https://itspm.ag/itspbgcwebDevo 👉 https://itspm.ag/itspdvweb_____________________________Episode IntroductionHello listeners, welcome to another riveting episode of the "Redefining Society Podcast." I am your host, Marco Ciappelli, here to walk you with open arms into the deep interplays at the intersection of technology, cybersecurity, and society.Today, we open the pages of the groundbreaking book "The New Technology State," meticulously penned by the veteran tech luminary, Bill Raduchel. With a resume boasting high-ranking roles in globally recognized companies such as Sun Microsystems and AOL Time Warner, and accolades including the CIO of the year, Bill stands as a fortress of knowledge and experience in the tech world, possessing insights forged from over sixty fruitful years on the front lines of the technological revolution.In this masterwork, the intersections of society and technology are explored with a profound depth, unraveling the threads of a prediction made over sixty years ago by the revered economist John Kenneth Galbraith, a prophecy which posited that the global elite would seize the ever-advancing computing technology to further deepen their vaults and amass unprecedented power.Drawing from rich personal encounters and dialogues with esteemed figures such as British Army officer turned MP, Tom Tugendhat, and media giant Paul Dacre, Bill paints a vivid picture of a world undergoing rapid and unrelenting change, a transformation facilitated by the relentless march of technology. His narratives vividly illustrate a society teetering on the brink, stretched to its limits by the pace of change which is seemingly only accelerating, spurred on by the democratization of technology creation.As we delve into their engrossing conversation, we witness a philosophical dance, navigating through the intricacies of technological advancements and their rippling effects on society. Bill's seasoned perspective leads us on a journey from the first encounter with a computer at a tender age of 15 to the dramatic transformations he has witnessed and engineered in the world of technology.With candid retrospections and poignant illustrations like the Viking’s thousand steel swords analogy, we are invited to ponder on the weighty implications of an increasingly fragile yet efficient society; a society united yet divided, caught in a delicate balance of power that might just be held in the hands of a few prodigiously talented individuals likened to the elite players in a professional sports team.In today's conversation, we traverse the technological landscape, touching on seemingly fantastical elements that have already become an intricate part of our daily realities, to the resonating echoes from the halls of Harvard where young Bill first grasped the prophetic insights of Galbraith.As I pick the brains of the man who has lived through the dazzling trajectory of the technological era, we open the floor to ponder on whether we stand on the precipice of revolution, as society grapples with changes that are seemingly too vast and rapid to fully comprehend. We find ourselves asking, was this level of change inevitable, or are we here because we failed to heed the warnings of those who saw what was coming?Join us as we unfold this rich tapestry of insights, experiences, and foresights into a world rapidly morphing under the influence of technology. Let us together navigate this brave new world, grasping the nuances and understanding the deep-seated ramifications of this technological era, guided by the wise reflections of Bill Raduchel, a man with an intimate understanding of the field.Dear listeners, as we unravel this tapestry of experiences and foresights, I encourage you to pause, reflect, and possibly redefine your understanding of society as we know it.Stay tuned, as we dive into a dialogue that navigates the thin line between the real and the digital world, a conversation laden with wisdom, rich narratives, and a deep exploration of our evolving society, here on the "Redefining Society Podcast."_____________________________About the BookThis book is about society—how it has changed and what technology is enabling us to do to ourselves.Sixty years ago, legendary economist John Kenneth Galbraith issued a grim prophecy that the global elite would harness the potential of the burgeoning computing revolution to accumulate even more wealth and power.His masterwork The New Industrial State redefined our perception of ourselves and our society. The computing revolution has turned his predictions into a reality th

I am Marco Ciappelli, your inquisitive host, steering the thoughtful ship of the 'Redefining Society Podcast.' Today, we find ourselves traversing the intricate narratives in our monthly sojourn titled 'A Carbon, a Silicon, and a Cell walk into a Bar...'. Dr. Bruce Y. Lee accompanies me as we ponder over the fervid topics of our time, endeavoring to unravel the intricacies at the cusp of technology and humanity’s well-being.In today’s episodic exploration, we commence with a heart-heavy yet candid dialogue on the prevailing environmental calamities - events that don’t just shake our geographies but stir our collective consciousness, urging us to look deeper, to understand further, and to act responsibly. I share the platform with the meticulous Dr. Bruce Y. Lee, as we meander through tragic trails of wildfires that have scorched lands and imprinted irreparable marks on human and ecological landscapes. We intertwine this with reflections on the state of healthcare, questioning if advancements like telemedicine could stand tall as beacons of assistance in such times of distress.Together, we embark on a philosophical excavation, delving into the paradox of technology - the creator and the potential solver of modern dilemmas. Can technology extricate us from the predicaments it inadvertently puts us in? This inquisition takes us down paths less traveled as we analyze whether technology truly meets our essential needs, or if it merely burgeons unasked, sometimes unneeded, promising solutions to non-existent problems while turning a blind eye to pressing matters of the heart and earth.As we steer deeper, we find ourselves grappling with the overarching dilemma - the push and pull of technology. Dr. Lee urges us to discern between technology that spontaneously proliferates, inundating us with options we never asked for, and technology that emerges as a responsive force to existing issues. The dialogue doesn't shy away from holding a mirror to our society, asking if we are, indeed, nurturing innovations that genuinely tend to the wounds of the environment, health, and society.Listeners, as we venture forth, discerning the interplay of wildfires, environmental health, and the role technology plays in this grand tapestry, we invite you to muse with us. How can technology, an entity so pervasive in our lives, be channeled to not only remediate the consequences of calamities but to foresee, prevent, and safeguard the sanctity of life and environment?We thread this intricate discourse with a desire for solutions, not just in the face of wildfires but in addressing the ubiquity of microplastics, the imperatives of environmental health, and the latent opportunities residing in technology’s prudent application.Join us, as we muse on the pulsating realities of today’s world, teetering between despair and hope, chaos and order, urging you to ponder – where do we stand in this era of technological prowess? What priorities must guide our hand, and how do we chart a course that respects the delicate balance between humanity and the force of nature?Listen in as we meander through the captivating stories “At The Intersection Of Technology, Cybersecurity, and Society,” unraveling threads that bind our fate with that of technology. We invite you to engage, to share, and to be a part of this pivotal conversation that seeks not just to redefine society but to shape a future that harmonizes technology, health, and the vibrant canvas of human experience.Dive deep with us in this enriching episode, where musings aren’t just contemplations but a clarion call for reflection, understanding, and action. Join this intricate dance of ideas, where we are all explorers seeking paths of enlightenment, today on the 'Redefining Society Podcast.' Welcome to the intersection of contemplation and reality._____________________________ResourcesPHICOR: https://www.phicor.org/AIMINGS: https://www.phicor.org/aimings____________________________To see and hear more Redefining Society stories on ITSPmagazine, visit:https://www.itspmagazi

Ep 1606Are We Capturing Or Making Up Reality? Does Experience Even Matter Anymore In Photography And The Creation Of Our Personal Memories? | A Conversation with William Wu | Redefining Society with Marco Ciappelli

Guest: William Wu, CEO at Artisse [@artisseai]On Linkedin | https://www.linkedin.com/in/william-wu/____________________________Host: Marco Ciappelli, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine [@ITSPmagazine] and Host of Redefining Society PodcastOn ITSPmagazine | https://www.itspmagazine.com/itspmagazine-podcast-radio-hosts/marco-ciappelli_____________________________This Episode’s SponsorsBlackCloak 👉 https://itspm.ag/itspbcwebBugcrowd 👉 https://itspm.ag/itspbgcwebDevo 👉 https://itspm.ag/itspdvweb_____________________________Episode IntroductionWelcome, dear listeners, to another episode of "Redefining Society," where we muse on the intricate blend of society and technology. I'm Marco Ciappelli, and today's conversation goes beyond the pixels and data points to explore a realm that both fascinates and bewilders us—the world of Generative AI in the context of photography, art, and advertising.Generative AI is an entity unto itself, for it enables us to create photos that don't just replicate reality, but often transcend it. Imagine a world where one doesn't need to stand in front of the Eiffel Tower to be photographed there. A realm where you can immortalize a moment with a loved one who is no longer with us—crafted not by mere camera clicks but by algorithms. The digital and the "real" are becoming increasingly indistinguishable, as lines blur and boundaries fade.As we delve into this, we must ask ourselves: What does this mean for traditional photography? For the art of capturing a moment as it is? A craft which required meticulous understanding of lighting, posing, and the subtle interplay of colors now finds itself at a crossroads. And what of the world of modeling and advertising? Where does this put professional models and photographers who spend years perfecting their skill?Moreover, we cannot overlook the societal implications. The seductive ease of creating our own version of reality with a few clicks carries with it ethical questions and dilemmas. When reality itself becomes subjective, or even editable, we begin to lose touch with a common ground of shared experiences. In our desire for perfection, there's the risk of obliterating the raw, flawed beauty of real life.But let's not fall into an abyss of despair. Technology, after all, is a double-edged sword; it can isolate us but also bring us closer to experiences we might never have otherwise had. It democratizes opportunities but also raises concerns about authenticity. My guest today, William Wu, joins me to ponder these questions, offering a perspective that bridges business insights and philosophical quandaries.So, as we navigate this discourse, let's remind ourselves that we are virtually connected, not just by wires and Wi-Fi, but by a collective consciousness that continues to redefine society in ways that are both intriguing and unsettling.I invite you to lean in, listen, and let this conversation catalyze your own thoughts on how Generative AI is reshaping our understanding of what's real, what's possible, and what it means to be truly human in this ever-evolving digital landscape.Your curiosity is the key, and the conversation has just begun. Subscribe, share, and stay tuned for a dialogue that promises to provoke, challenge, and inspire. Welcome to the Redefining Society Podcast._____________________________Resources ____________________________To see and hear more Redefining Society stories on ITSPmagazine, visit:https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-society-podcastWatch the webcast version on-demand on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnYu0psdcllTUoWMGGQHlGVZA575VtGr9Are you interested in sponsoring an ITSPmagazine Channel?👉 https://www.itspmagazine.com/advertise-on-itspmagazine-podcast Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Guests: Josh Mason, Host of Loops and LifecyclesOn ITSPmagazine 👉 https://www.itspmagazine.com/itspmagazine-podcast-radio-hosts/joshua-mason_____________________________Host: Marco Ciappelli, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine [@ITSPmagazine] and Host of Redefining Society Podcast & Audio Signals PodcastOn ITSPmagazine | https://www.itspmagazine.com/itspmagazine-podcast-radio-hosts/marco-ciappelli_____________________________This Episode’s SponsorsAre you interested in sponsoring an ITSPmagazine Channel?👉 https://www.itspmagazine.com/sponsor-the-itspmagazine-podcast-network_____________________________Episode IntroductionIn this episode of Audio Signals, host Marco Ciappelli invites Josh Mason, an eclectic polymath with a military background, onto the show. Josh is a fresh addition to the ITSP Magazine lineup, bringing a unique blend of experiences that range from piloting C-130s for the U.S. Air Force to cyber warfare and digital forensics. Together, they peel back the layers of storytelling, exploring why stories and the people behind them matter so much, especially in the realm of cybersecurity and technology.As the discussion unfolds inside virtual coffee shops and parked cars, Marco and Josh delve into the significance of the mindset inherited from military service—constant briefing and debriefing, meticulous planning, and risk assessment. They argue that this mindset is not just vital for a successful flight mission, but equally important in the world of cybersecurity. It’s about a cycle of continuous learning, about observing, orienting, deciding, and acting—a loop that governs not only the fighter pilot in the sky but also the cybersecurity professional on the ground.What does it take to make the leap from navigating cargo planes to navigating the complex networks of cyber warfare? How can the principles learned in the high-stakes world of military aviation be applied to the equally crucial arena of cybersecurity? As a storyteller fascinated by the intersection of technology, cybersecurity, and society, Marco takes us on a thought-provoking journey to discover the story behind the storyteller.Listen in to uncover how Josh’s diverse background makes him a compelling new voice on ITSP Magazine. With narratives interwoven with life or death decision-making, rigorous training, and a drive for continuous improvement, this episode promises to deliver insights that resonate far beyond the realms of technology and security.

Ep 1604Book | Growing Up in Public: Coming of Age in a Digital World | A Conversation with Author Devorah Heitner | Redefining Society with Marco Ciappelli

Guest: Devorah Heitner, AuthorOn Twitter | https://twitter.com/DevorahHeitnerWebsite | https://devorahheitner.com/On TikTok | https://www.tiktok.com/@devorahheitner1On Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/devorahheitnerphd/____________________________Host: Marco Ciappelli, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine [@ITSPmagazine] and Host of Redefining Society PodcastOn ITSPmagazine | https://www.itspmagazine.com/itspmagazine-podcast-radio-hosts/marco-ciappelli_____________________________This Episode’s SponsorsBlackCloak 👉 https://itspm.ag/itspbcwebBugcrowd 👉 https://itspm.ag/itspbgcwebDevo 👉 https://itspm.ag/itspdvweb_____________________________Episode IntroductionWelcome to another episode of the Redefining Society Podcast, where we muse on the complex interplay of society, technology, and humanity. I am Marco Ciappelli, your guide through this intricate labyrinth. Today, we venture into the pressing reality that our children's lives are ever more public, ever more scrutinized, and ever more entangled with their digital identities. This digital sphere isn't a separate reality; it's an integral part of their lives, shaping their reputations, their self-perceptions, and their futures.In this digital age, the lines between the online world and "real life" are not just blurred—they are indistinguishable. Our kids grow up with likes, shares, and retweets as measures of their worth, all while wrestling with the big questions of identity and character development. How can they figure out who they really are when every action, every choice, every moment is up for public scrutiny?My guest today is Devorah Heitner, author of the definitive work "Growing Up in Public," a book that offers a crucial road map for parents to navigate this complex terrain with their children. Heitner uncovers how the digital world has irrevocably changed the rites of passage for our kids, focusing not just on the threats of exposure or cancel culture but the deeper issues of character and authenticity.Drawing from her extensive work and research—conversations with kids, parents, educators, and experts—Devorah equips us to cut through the digital noise and connect with our children on a meaningful level. Her book provides actionable strategies that emphasize character over consequences, guiding us to support our children as they navigate what it means to grow up publicly, both online and offline.So, are we bystanders in this digital narrative, or can we actively shape a more compassionate, more nuanced conversation that respects the fusion of technology and human vulnerability?As technology becomes even more integrated into our real lives, let's question, let's reflect, and let's redefine what it means to grow up in public.Listen, share, and subscribe! _____________________________About the BookThe definitive book on helping kids navigate growing up in a world where nearly every moment of their lives can be shared and comparedWith social media and constant connection, the boundaries of privacy are stretched thin. Growing Up in Public shows parents how to help tweens and teens navigate boundaries, identity, privacy, and reputation in their digital world.We can track our kids’ every move with apps, see their grades within minutes of being posted, and fixate on their digital footprint, anxious that a misstep could cause them to be “canceled” or even jeopardize their admission to college. And all of this adds pressure on kids who are coming of age immersed in social media platforms that emphasize “personal brand,” “likes,” and “gotcha” moments. How can they figure out who they really are with zero privacy and constant judgment? Devorah Heitner shows us that by focusing on character, not the threat of getting caught or exposed, we can support our kids to be authentically themselves.Drawing on her extensive work with parents and schools as well as hundreds of interviews with kids, parents, educators, clinicians, and scholars, Heitner offers strategies for parenting our kids in an always-connected world. With relatable stories and research-backed advice, Growing Up in Public empowers parents to cut through the overwhelm to connect with their kids, recognize how to support them, and help them figure out who they are when everyone is watching._____________________________ResourcesGrowing Up in Public: Coming Up of Age in a Digital World (website): https://devorahheitner.com/growing-up-in-public/Growing Up in Public: Coming Up of Age in a Digital World (Amazon): https://www.amazon.com/Growing-Up-Public-Coming-Digital/dp/0593420969____________________________To see and hear more Redefining Society stories on ITSPmagazine, visit:https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-society-podcastWatch the webcast version on-demand on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnYu0psdcllTUoWMGGQHlGVZA575VtGr9Are you interested in sponsoring an ITSPmagazine Channel?👉 https://www.itspmagazine.com/advertise-on-itspmagazine-podcast Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz compa

Trond offers deep insights into the world of risk and the need for new paradigms to address emerging challenges.The conversation starts with a discussion on the importance of systematic feedback and validation-driven strategies in fostering innovation. Sean and Trond highlight the positive aspects of risk information, emphasizing that it can help save resources by redirecting efforts towards more viable avenues.Sean and Trond explore the notion of systems thinking and the challenges it presents. They explain that when we describe something as a "system," it implies that it is something we cannot fully control, but rather something we are amidst. They also touch on the concept of cascading risks, highlighting the potential dangers of multiple risks working together.The conversation shifts to the role of organizations in managing risk. Sean and Trond acknowledge the complexity and short-term focus of many risk management approaches and express the need for new institutions (non-profit, government, etc.) and companies (commercial product/service providers, for example) to address this gap. They mention the rise of industries focused on specific risk areas, such as cybersecurity and ESG risk, and predict that more industries will emerge to provide risk management services. Sean and Trond also explore the idea that a higher level of risk can spur innovation, but caution against irresponsible risk-taking. They stress the importance of finding a balance between risk and innovation.Join Sean and Trond for an engaging conversation rooted in philosophical discussion about the future of technology, the potential risks posed by emerging technologies like AI and bio-risks, and the impact of risk management on society. This episode of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast helps to navigate the challenging landscape of technology and risk.

Ep 1598Mind the Shadow AI Gap: Perception vs. Reality for Insider Threats in Data Security | An Imperva Brand Story With Terry Ray

In this Brand Story episode, hosts Marco and Sean discuss data security and insider threats with their guest Terry Ray, field CTO and senior vice president for data security strategy at Imperva. The conversation covers a range of topics related to data security and the challenges organizations face.Terry highlights the need for clear policies and strategies to detect and prevent insider threats. He points out that while organizations may trust their employees and contractors, people are not always security-minded, which can lead to trouble. He also mentions the presence of malicious individuals, although they are fewer in number.Terry shares statistics that reveal a gap between organizations' perception of their data security and the reality of lacking comprehensive strategies as the trio explores the potential of AI in data security, with a focus on the limitations of AI in making complex decisions.Terry emphasizes the importance of human intelligence and oversight, arguing that AI is not yet capable of determining the best course of action in certain scenarios. He gives an example of using AI to compare web application firewalls and points out that AI may not have the context or intelligence to identify what is missing if it hasn't been done before.The group also discusses the balance between security and convenience, particularly in areas such as the medical field. They consider the advantages and risks of feeding AI with medical data and the potential for AI to find solutions that humans may not have considered.The conversation sheds light on some important strategies and best practices as well.

Ep 1597Diversity and Inclusion in Cybersecurity and Technology: Yes, We're Still Talking About It! In This Episode, with The Diana Initiative | A Conversation with Nicole Schwartz | Redefining Society with Marco Ciappelli

Guests: Nicole Schwartz, COO at The Diana Initiative [@DianaInitiative]On Linkedin | https://www.linkedin.com/in/amazonvOn Twitter | https://twitter.com/CircuitSwanMastodon | https://defcon.social/@CircuitSwanOn YouTube | https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqzohGI80B7I9-wOmcgJgjg____________________________Host: Marco Ciappelli, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine [@ITSPmagazine] and Host of Redefining Society PodcastOn ITSPmagazine | https://www.itspmagazine.com/itspmagazine-podcast-radio-hosts/marco-ciappelli_____________________________This Episode’s SponsorsBlackCloak 👉 https://itspm.ag/itspbcwebBugcrowd 👉 https://itspm.ag/itspbgcwebDevo 👉 https://itspm.ag/itspdvweb_____________________________Episode IntroductionOn this episode of Redefining Society, we grapple with the lingering question: Why are we still talking about diversity and inclusion in cybersecurity? We discuss the unresolved challenges and systemic barriers that make this an enduring issue with Nicole Schwartz from The Diana Initiative.In today's episode of "Redefining Society," I, Marco Ciappelli, dig deep into a conversation that is as pertinent as it is perennial—diversity and inclusion within the realm of technology and cybersecurity. It's a topic that prompts me to utter phrases like, "Why are we still talking about this?" and "I wish we didn't have to discuss it." These phrases are an acknowledgement of the dissonance between our rapid technological evolution and the sluggish moral progression in how we treat one another, both in society at large and within specialized communities.Why, you may ask, is this conversation appearing on "Redefining Society," a platform typically dedicated to musing on the societal implications of technology, rather than a specialized InfoSec or cybersecurity channel? The answer is simple: The issue of diversity and inclusion transcends the boundaries of any one field. Though today's discussion is deeply rooted in technology and cybersecurity, it is, at its core, a human issue, a societal challenge.Our guest today is Nicole Schwartz, the COO of the Diana Initiative, an organization founded to address issues affecting underrepresented gender minorities within the tech and cybersecurity spheres. Established informally during a lunch conversation at DEF CON—Hacker Summer Camp—the Diana Initiative started as a gathering point for like-minded individuals. It has since evolved into an organization of significant heft, hosting events and supporting budding professionals in the field.Why focus on the Diana Initiative today? Because when it comes to addressing the pressing issues of diversity and inclusion, this organization doesn't just walk the talk—it runs. It's an organization that has manifested change so palpably that it has faced "shutdowns" from fire marshals for exceeding capacity—ironically, a glaring testament to the unfulfilled needs and pent-up demands it seeks to address.The Diana Initiative is a reminder that inclusion is not just a word to be thrown around but a practice to be lived daily. It serves as a physical and conceptual space where marginalized voices can find resonance, away from the discordant echoes of an industry not built with them in mind.And so, in an age where our virtual identities often speak louder than our physical selves, the Diana Initiative provides an indispensable counterpoint, a reminder that the most significant firewalls we need to break down are not those made of codes and algorithms, but those constructed by prejudice, bias, and societal inertia.Stay with us as we delve into a conversation that aims to challenge and redefine society's understanding of technology, cybersecurity, and above all, humanity itself._____________________________ResourcesThe Diana Initiative: https://www.dianainitiative.org/The Diana Initiative Linktree: https://linktr.ee/dianainitiative____________________________To see and hear more Redefining Society stories on ITSPmagazine, visit:https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-society-podcastWatch the webcast version on-demand on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnYu0psdcllTUoWMGGQHlGVZA575VtGr9Are you interested in sponsoring an ITSPmagazine Channel?👉 https://www.itspmagazine.com/advertise-on-itspmagazine-podcast Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Ep 1596Book: What Is It Costing You Not To Listen: The Power of Understanding to Connect, Influence, Solve & Sell | A Conversation With Christine Miles and Sean Martin | Audio Signals Podcast With Marco Ciappelli

I am Marco Ciappelli, your host, and today, we are navigating a domain that transcends the boundaries of technology, cybersecurity, and even society: the art of listening.This subject might seem elemental, a given even, but is it? In the cacophony of our modern life, we're drowning in noise and suffocating in information. Yet, how much wisdom do we actually attain? We talk so much about the value of information, the security of it, and the technology that transmits it. But today, let's pause and consider: how much importance do we place on the faculty of listening?Listening — the act of not just hearing but absorbing — is a subtle craft that unites us all, from Socratic dialogues to global podcasts. The science of silence between sounds. A pause in which understanding blooms. So simple, yet so complex that it profoundly impacts our interactions, from the way we conduct business to the way we nurture relationships. In an age where debates are reduced to 280 characters, where is the room for meaningful dialogue? How can we truly listen if our very minds are cluttered?Today, we dive deep into this art form with Christine Miles, the author of "What Is It Costing You Not to Listen?" Christine is a luminary in the understanding of how listening impacts our leadership, our sales, our influence, and our very existence. We will confront the question that we so often avoid: what is it costing us when we don’t listen?Through our conversation, we aim to inspire you to unlearn so you can relearn. To challenge your understanding of what it means to listen. Not just to respond but to understand. I invite you to open your ears and close your preconceptions. This is not just a podcast episode; it’s a call to action.Christine will guide us through the anatomy of listening, challenging the very paradigms we've accepted as norms. You might realize that the greatest obstacle to effective listening is not external but internal; not in our gadgets, but in our grey matter. In our neuro-wired minds that jump to conclusions, that form judgments before facts, that listen to respond rather than to understand.So let’s put the proverbial can to our ears, lean back, and invite silence as the third guest in this conversation. The ancient Greeks said that we have two ears and one mouth so that we may listen more and speak less. Let’s honor that wisdom today.Lean in. Listen. Let's transform.Now, let's meet Christine Miles. Shall we?About the book What Is It Costing You Not To Listen: The Power of Understanding to Connect, Influence, Solve & SellDo you want to make a positive change in your life, work, or business? Do you want to improve your marriage, be a better parent, or drive more revenue to your business? Then you’ve found the right book. What Is It Costing You Not to Listen? will encourage you to examine how you are listening. You’ll discover that not only are many of the problems in your life due to not listening effectively, but listening helps to solve most problems. Christine Miles is a longtime expert in educating individuals and organizations on how to listen in ways that transform how they lead, sell, influence, and succeed in every aspect of life. Following the steps of her breakthrough Listening Path™ will provide you with a critical key to your success—understanding. Through Christine’s game-changing approach to listening, you will learn to: - Hear what is said and not said - Identify your listening persona and realize when it is unhelpful - Soothe your subconscious so you can listen differently - Listen with intent to gather others’ stories - Replace interfering direct questions with just six questions - Mini-reflect to speed up the listening process without getting lost - Affirm to create alignment, break down walls, and solve problem In business, listening is good for the bottom line. It creates trust between coworkers so they can solve problems better, get things done, manage conflict, stay engaged, and empower one another. In personal relationships

Ep 1593'I Took a Hike' Podcast: A Philosophy of Wilderness, Business, Life, and Storytelling | A Conversation With Darren Mass | Audio Signals Podcast With Marco Ciappelli

Guests: Darren Mass, Host of I Took a Hike [@itookahike]On LinkedIn | https://www.linkedin.com/in/darrenmassWebsite | https://itookahike.com/On TikTok | https://www.tiktok.com/@itookahikeOn Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/itookahikepodcast/_____________________________Hosts: Marco Ciappelli, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine [@ITSPmagazine] and Host of Redefining Society Podcast & Audio Signals PodcastOn ITSPmagazine | https://www.itspmagazine.com/itspmagazine-podcast-radio-hosts/marco-ciappelli_____________________________This Episode’s SponsorsAre you interested in sponsoring an ITSPmagazine Channel?👉 https://www.itspmagazine.com/sponsor-the-itspmagazine-podcast-network_____________________________Episode IntroductionJoin me on this episode of Audio Signals Podcast as we virtually hike with Darren Mass, creator of "I Took a Hike," exploring the trails of storytelling, business insights, and the wilderness philosophy.I stride forward, virtually, boots crunching on the trail, stepping into the unfamiliar yet intriguing world of storytelling. On this episode of Audio Signals Podcast, hosted by yours truly, Marco Ciappelli, I'm taking you on a journey not just through the tales but the art of telling them. This isn't just about narration; it's about understanding the minds and souls behind the words.The trail winds and twists as I prepare to converse with Darren Mass, a Business Therapist and part-time Wilderness Philosopher, the creator of the podcast "I Took a Hike." Maybe we will take a hike and record a podcast together when the occasion arises, but for now, what better way to grasp his philosophy than to virtually put on the hiking boots ourselves, to delve into his approach of combining business insights with the rustic embrace of Mother Nature?Why hiking? I wonder as the conversation begins. Darren reveals that the great outdoors serves as a catalyst for genuine, raw conversations. There's no room for fabrication when you're facing nature's unpredictable twists. One misstep and you're in poison ivy; one wrong turn and you face a cliff's edge. Just like the trails he hikes, Darren's podcast brings the unknown, the uncharted, into focus. And in these untamed conversations, the truth is uncovered, the real emotions are laid bare.As we talk, Darren's concept resonates with me. We are all navigating through trails of our lives, some smooth, some rugged. But it's the unpaved paths that often lead us to the most profound realizations, the deepest connections. Is there a greater metaphor for life? These trails, both real and metaphorical, tell stories, and Darren has turned them into an art form."I Took a Hike" isn't just a podcast; it's an experience, an adventure. It takes you out of the well-trodden paths of everyday life and leads you on a journey where your mind and soul can wander. Whether it's an encounter with a snake or the eye-opening perspective of a boulder placed by aliens, each hike is a tale of discovery and revelation.I find myself reflecting on the storyteller's role. Like a guide leading you through the wilderness, a storyteller helps you navigate the complex terrain of human experience. Sometimes we lose our way, but the story always brings us back, reconnecting us with our essence. As I'm talking to Darren, I realize that his hiking trails are more than just physical paths; they are philosophical journeys that explore human nature and emotions.So here I am, Marco Ciappelli, inviting you to listen to this episode of Audio Signals Podcast, as we virtually take this hike together with Darren Mass, exploring not just the stories but the essence of storytelling. It's a new turn, where it's not just about the narratives but about those who dare to tell them. Come join us on this adventurous path; you never know what we might discover together. Subscribe, share, and stay tuned for more stories at the intersection of society, technology, and beyond. This is about more than just tales; this is about life, passion, and the art of connection.Till the next trail, keep musing on stories and storytellers._____________________________ResourcesWebsite | https://itookahike.com/_____________________________For more podcast stories from Audio Signals: https://www.itspmagazine.com/audio-signalsWatch the video version on-demand on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnYu0psdcllS0aVY7qlwHxX3uiN7tqqsyAre you interested in sponsoring an ITSPmagazine Channel?👉 https://www.itspmagazine.com/sponsor-the-itspmagazine-podcast-network Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Ep 1578Follow the Money | From Bugs to Bad Intentions: Evolving Perspectives on Product Security | A Conversation with Allison Miller | Las Vegas Black Hat 2023 Event Coverage | Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast With Sean Martin

Guest: Allison Miller, Faculty at IANS [@IANS_Security] and CISO (Chief Information Security Officer) and VP of Trust at Reddit [@Reddit]On LinkedIn | https://www.linkedin.com/in/allisonmillerOn Twitter | https://twitter.com/selenakyle____________________________Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine [@ITSPmagazine] and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast [@RedefiningCyber]On ITSPmagazine | https://www.itspmagazine.com/itspmagazine-podcast-radio-hosts/sean-martin____________________________This Episode’s SponsorsIsland.io | https://itspm.ag/island-io-6b5ffd____________________________Episode NotesIn this episode of the Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast, as part of our Chats on the Road series to Black Hat USA 2023 in Las Vegas hosts Sean Martin and Marco Ciappelli chat with Allison Miller to discuss the parallels and differences between the fraud and cybersecurity teams, focusing particularly on how each measures success and handles challenges. Sean highlights the fraud team's clear metric of money, starting and ending their processes with it, and contrasts it to the security team's reliance on metrics like MTTx (Mean Time to Detect, Respond, etc.). He's curious about how the fraud team optimizes their processes and wonders if there are lessons that security teams can glean from them.Allison appreciates the methodologies of fraud teams, especially their use of sampling to understand the magnitude of problems. She explains how fraud teams utilize backend data, machine learning, AI, and statistics to discern risk factors. Then, they test these models on forward-looking data, a methodology akin to red teaming in cybersecurity. She emphasizes the importance of continuous testing to ensure confidence in their detection capabilities. A point of difference she highlights is that fraud models have a high degree of confidence due to rigorous testing, while in cybersecurity, a lot of trust is placed on tool outputs without similar rigorous testing.Marco emphasized the importance of building trust among teams. He stated that without trust, metrics could be misleading, and the overall effectiveness of processes might decline. He urged teams to ensure that they not only trust the data but also their colleagues, suggesting that this trust fosters better communication, understanding, and ultimately, results.Sean expresses his wish for the cybersecurity world to be more integrated into applications, like the fraud teams are. Allison notes that fraud teams naturally fit into transaction processes because that's where money moves. For cybersecurity, the most natural integration point would be during authentication, but it's a risky move since blocking legitimate users would significantly impair their experience. Despite the challenges, Allison sees potential in fusion between fraud and security, especially in areas like API abuse. Both teams could benefit immensely from mutual collaboration in such areas.Allison concludes that while direct involvement of security teams within applications may be a stretch, collaboration with fraud teams can still provide valuable insights. For example, in the realm of retail and payment, insights into API abuse can be a significant area for cooperative efforts between the two teams.Stay tuned for all of our Black Hat USA 2023 coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/bhusa____ResourcesFor more Black Hat USA 2023 Event information, coverage, and podcast and video episodes, visit: https://www.itspmagazine.com/black-hat-usa-2023-cybersecurity-event-coverage-in-las-vegasAre you interested in telling your story in connection with our Black Hat coverage?

The conversation covers MITRE's role as an industry thought leader and their focus on making the cyber world a safer place. They explain how MITRE ATT&CK, a framework based on observations from blue and red engagements, led to the development of ATT&CK evaluations, which aim to raise the standard of the industry and provide transparency. The hosts and guests emphasize the need for transparency in adversary emulation and how MITRE releases their methodology, results, and code to make the practice more accessible.The group also discusses the challenges faced in aligning emulation plans with the diverse and unique solutions deployed by different vendors and the importance of maintaining the integrity of what the adversaries would actually do. The conversation also touches on the differences between adversary emulation and simulation. While emulation replicates the actions and techniques of specific adversaries, simulation allows for more flexibility and blends different components of multiple adversaries.The hosts and guests also explore the power and responsibility that comes with conducting adversary emulation, drawing parallels to superheroes like Batman and Spider-Man.About the session — Becoming a Dark Knight: Adversary Emulation Demonstration for ATT&CK EvaluationsBatman once said, "you either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain." What if there was a way to become a cyber villain for the greater good? For the last 5 years, the MITRE ATT&CK Evaluations team has been improving the industry by "becoming the villain." We study some of the world's most advanced threat actors, develop a scenario, build malware and tools, then execute the operations against major EDR vendors. And the best part? Not only do we get the business justification of becoming a villain to advance defenders, but our code is also open-sourced.Using a Latin American APT as our real-world villain, this talk will showcase how to merge CTI and red development capabilities for adversary emulation.First, our cyber threat intelligence team (CTI) demonstrates how to evaluate reports with the sufficient technical data needed to emulate the adversary's usage of particular techniques. We will build a scenario, create CTI diagrams based on our analysis, address gaps in data, and create alternative attack methods for the red team.Next, the red team enters the scene to collaborate with the CTI team. They begin building malware, tools, and infrastructure. Translating approved open-source CTI reporting into code, we will walk through process injection, persistence, hands-on-keyboard discovery, and lateral movement for the emulation. Finally, it is time to launch the attack and see how our defenders respond, discern where to search for clues, and help them uncover our plot.To coincide with this presentation, our code, research, and emulation plans will be publicly released.
