Rise of Compromised LLMs - Sohrob Kazerounian - ASW #340

AI is more than LLMs. Machine learning algorithms have been part of infosec solutions for a long time. For appsec practitioners, a key concern is always going to be how to evaluate the security of software or a system. In some cases, it doesn't matter if a human or an LLM generated code -- the code needs to be reviewed for common flaws and design problems. But the creation of MCP servers and LLM-based agents is also adding a concern about what an unattended or autonomous piece of software is doing. Sohrob Kazerounian gives us context on how LLMs are designed, what to expect from them, and where they pose risk and reward to modern software engineering.

The Cyber Canon, ditching the SOC 2, and the weekly enterprise news - Helen Patton - ESW #416

Segment 1 - Interview with Helen Patton: Introducing the Cybersecurity Canon Did you know that there’s a hall-of-fame for cybersecurity books? Over the past decade, the Cybersecurity Canon has published reviews on dozens of cybersecurity books and established a hall of fame. Hall of fame books are defined as titles that all cybersecurity professionals should read - a great short list for those new to the field and overwhelmed by choices. Helen Patton, co-founder and Chief of Staff for the Cybersecurity Canon joins us to tell us all about the Canon, how it came to be, and its transformation into a more visible and active organization. We’ll also discuss Helen’s own book, “Navigating the Cybersecurity Career Path”, and an upcoming second book she’s working on as well! Segment Resources: Helen's personal website The Cybersecurity Canon website Segment 2 - Topic: Does the SOC 2 need to die? AJ Yawn thinks so. The TL;DR is that he thinks industry-specific frameworks are more appropriate and effective. You can check out some more of his thoughts on LinkedIn, or on the Alice in Supply Chains podcast. Ayman recommends checking out https://mvsp.dev/ as a potential alternative (or as a complementary process to actually get secure) Segment 3 - This Week's Enterprise Security News And finally, in the enterprise security news, a bit of funding with a side of layoffs McDonald’s applicants are not lovin’ it a WILD story about a vulnerability in the US train system Meta still on the hook for $8B in privacy violations What is Agentic Misalignment? Using AI when coding is… slower? Auth Omnibus Pop some popcorn - AI acquisitions are getting crazy All that and more, on this episode of Enterprise Security Weekly.

Minimize SAP Migration Challenges, Cybersecurity Maturity, and Radical Transparency - Christopher Carter - BSW #404

Are you running SAP? The clock is ticking... Standard maintenance end-of-life is set for the end of 2027. Migration to S/4HANA must be completed by then (or 2030 if you buy into SAP’s special three-year reprieve). While that may appear to be enough time, companies currently working toward an S/4HANA transition are finding the journey challenging, and that's not including the security challenges. Chris Carter, CEO at Approyo, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss your SAP options, including: ERP Strategy: Stay with SAP or migrate to other solutions? S/4HANA Architecture: All cloud or cloud/on-premise? Security Challenges: Cloud vs. on-premise SAP Migration: Recommendations for success In the leadership and communications section, Where cybersecurity maturity meets confidence in C-suite and board leadership, Has CISO become the least desirable role in business?, How Radical Transparency Is Revolutionizing Leadership, and more!

Getting Started with Security Basics on the Way to Finding a Specialization - ASW #339

What are some appsec basics? There's no monolithic appsec role. Broadly speaking, appsec tends to branch into engineering or compliance paths, each with different areas of focus despite having shared vocabularies and the (hopefully!) shared goal of protecting software, data, and users. The better question is, "What do you want to secure?" We discuss the Cybersecurity Skills Framework put together by the OpenSSF and the Linux Foundation and how you might prepare for one of its job families. The important basics aren't about memorizing lists or technical details, but demonstrating experience in working with technologies, understanding how they can fail, and being able to express concerns, recommendations, and curiosity about their security properties.

Monzy Merza, How Much AI is Too Much, and the Weekly News - Monzy Merza - ESW #415

Segment 1: Interview with Monzy Merza - There is a Right and Wrong Way to use AI in the SOC In the rush to score AI funding dollars, a lot of startups build a basic wrapper around existing generative AI services like those offered by OpenAI and Anthropic. As a result, these services are expensive, and don't satisfy many security operations teams' privacy requirements. This is just the tip of the iceberg when discussing the challenges of using AI to aid the SOC. In this interview, we'll dive into the challenge of finding security vendors that care about security, the need for transparency in products, the evolving shared responsibility model, and other topics related to solving security operations challenges. Segment 2: Topic Segment - How much AI is too much AI? In the past few weeks, I've talked to several startup founders who are running into buyers that aren’t allowed to purchase their products, even though they want them and prefer them over the competition. Why? No AI and they’re not allowed to buy. Segment 3: News Segment Finally, in the enterprise security news, We cover the latest funding The Trustwave saga comes to a positive end Android 16 could help you evade law enforcement Microsoft is kicking 3rd party AV out of the kernel Giving AI some personality (and honesty) Log4shell canaries reveal password weirdness Denmark gives citizens copyright to their own faces to fight AI McDonald’s has an AI whoopsie Ingram Micro has a ransomware whoopsie Drama in the trailer lock industry All that and more, on this episode of Enterprise Security Weekly.
