DtSR Episode 556 - Will Regulation Price Out the Competition
TL;DR:On this software security and regulation-focused episode of the podcast, the OG of AppSec (Jeff Williams) joins James & I to talk about the latest spate of regulations that require self-attested transparency about what companies are doing with respect to securing their software via supply chain and direct action.Jeff contends this is a good thing and it's hard to argue that transparency drives good - however - I'm always curious what this does to those who struggle to afford to do better, which is what the vast majority of vendors to FedGov are.Interesting discussion, join us!YouTube Video: https://youtube.com/live/iavtEVADp4gGuestJeff WilliamsLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/planetlevel/Have something to say?

DtSR Episode 555 - Why Can't We Figure Out the Developer Security Relationship
TL;DR:On this 555th episode, James Wickett joins James and me on an interesting discussion on AppSec, developer relationships, and why we just can't seem to make it work. Or maybe we're making it work but not giving ourselves credit? Listen in to this conversation and find out. This one will hook you in, as James, James, and I have a slightly depressing conversation that I think ends in something to be hopeful about.YouTube video stream replay: https://youtube.com/live/UIXtZy61CKU Guest:James WickettLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/wickett/Have something to say?

DtSR Episode 554 - This is Why AppSec Can't Have Nice Things
TL;DRThis week's episode goes down the AppSec rabbit hole with Francesco Cipollone (call him "Frank") as we discuss some of the ins and outs of the modern software security challenge. We're all over the place on topics, but the message, in the end, is sane.YouTube video replay: https://youtube.com/live/tJ6pvV3f0uA Guest:Francesco CipolloneLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/fracipo/Have something to say?

DtSR Episode 553 - Leadership Series - Selling Cyber Security
TL;DR:In case you missed the epic LinkedIn Live livestream, here's the podcast version of the conversation with Chris Scanlan (President and Chief Commercial Officer at ExtraHop). James and I talk to Chris about his career, how he picks his next job, his team, and his thoughts on high-performance organizations. Sales is a topic many of our competitive podcasts in this space don't cover much - but I think it's worth the conversation to understand the seller-buyer relationship better because it's SO necessary to your work lives. Besides, Chris is a fantastic interview... enjoy it!LinkedIn Live replay: https://www.linkedin.com/events/dtsrepisode553-sellingcybersecu7062465900553146368/about/Guest:Chris ScanlanLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cscanlan/Have something to say?

DtSR Episode 551 - Patching Prioritizing and Punting
TL;DR:On this week's show, Grant joins us to discuss an episode that draws inspiration from a LinkedIn discussion with Patrick Garrity [original post] (whom could not make our recording, sorry Patrick). The gist of it is this - patching is hard, there are now 925 KEVs (known exploited vulnerabilities) on CISAs list, and that's a truck-ton. The discussion threads the needle between whether prioritization matters at that scale, alternatives, and some reasons to give up hope altogether.Buckle up, this one's a rough one to be a passenger on.Join (or start?) the discussion on the podcast's LinkedIn Page, here.Video stream replay here: https://youtube.com/live/0L2aKUqjmQEGuestGrant SewellLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/grantsewell/Have something to say?

DtSR Episode 550 - Lift Shift and Fail to the Cloud
TL;DR:On this week's episode, the one and only Jeff Collins joins Rafal & James to talk about the shift to the cloud and what's gone wrong in the years since the collective "we" announced that the cloud was the answer. Feels like a decade has passed, and I think it has, since the start and we're observing increased complexity and varying degrees of security increase/decrease. What's next? Where are we right now? And what does it mean for security?Tune in, find out.YouTube video stream: https://youtube.com/live/Vdx73wpKzGAGuest:Jeff CollinsLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jmcollins/Have something to say?

DtSR Episode 548 - What's HR Got to Do With It
TL;DR:Cyber Security seems to always be a technical topic. This week, we're taking it down a different lane as we discuss HR (right, Human Resources, remember those folks?) with Tom Venables. Tom's got seat time in the space, consulting with HR partners for various clients so he knows a thing or two about the processes and where they break down.Listen in, and then go take a look at your own processes.

DtSR Episode 547 - Don't Believe All the Cyber Hype
TL;DR:This week on the podcast we have Nathan Hamiel, Senior Director of Research at Kudelski Security on the podcast to talk about HYPE. It's a conversation rooted in skepticism, but also optimism in a strange mix that only Nathan can bring from his extensive experience and well-thought-out talking points.YouTube Recorded LiveStream: https://youtube.com/live/ayPrWr-VWv0GuestNathan HamielLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nathanhamiel/Have something to say?
