In this episode, we have something a little different. We're excited
that Sean Lygaas (@Snlyngaas), Senior Reporter at CyberScoop, has
joined host Luke McNamara to share a different perspective on many of
the same cyber security stories and events that we work on in parallel
here at FireEye.

Sean and Luke kick off their conversation by discussing which stories
Sean considers top priority. These days his mornings entail reviewing
election security, and then he starts chasing the timely stories he
finds most interesting. Sean also shared the difference between what
is news and what is research when it comes to writing a story.

With the election being so close, we of course turned to the topic of
disinformation. Sean shared the difficulties of writing about
information operations and his approach of attempting to report on it
without amplifying fear or paranoia. We also explored the impact and
intent of these operations.

Listen to the episode to hear Sean’s thoughts on the future of media
and news consumption, and the cybersecurity topics he thinks we will
be reading about in the news in the coming year.
