Down the Security Rabbithole Podcast (DtSR)

Prologue Super pumped this week to have James Azar on the show. James hosts a collection of podcasts including one I try to catch as often as possible - https://www.linkedin.com/company/cyberhubpodcast/. We cover a lot of ground, but you'll walk away with James' words ringing in your head, I can almost promise you that.

Prologue This week, as we approach episode 500 and the extravaganza that it will be, James and I welcome my personal friend and all-around wonderful marketing dude, Russell Wurth. We joke about what's wrong with cyber-security, and why it's mostly marketing's fault. Join us, prep your buzzword bingo card, and have a drink in hand (unless you're driving, then please don't).

Prologue Have you noticed that the relationship between buyer and seller, or more precisely, between CISO and seller is... eh ... tenuous lately? OK, maybe it's a lot worse than that in some cases. Why is that? How did we get here? And how do we fix a relationship that is quite clearly necessary, but just so broken? Yaron Levi, long-time industry veteran joins Rafal to discuss the challenges and opportunities of the CISO - vendor relationship.   Guest Yaron Levi LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/yaronrl/  Have something to say?

Prologue This week, as Vladimir Putin's Russia continues to commit war crimes and genocide against the people of Ukraine, DtSR gathered a panel of experts to discuss and dissect the threat of a Russian-based cyber offensive against the west. Our panelists helped separate fact from fiction, and gave us some take-aways that we can use to rationally and realistically protect ourselves from this and other related threats.

Prologue Special thanks on this episode to OpenText for bringing Mike to us on this show. What a fantastic conversation about the state of forensics and a little bit of reminiscing too! This episode we talk forensics, and the art and science, plus how to build that back-fill of talent this entire industry is short on. Michael has decades of knowledge and experience, and it's a joy of a conversation. Also, if you're into nothing else on this episode, check out the world's cutest kitten. Come for the kitten, stay for the forensics goodness. Guest Michael Hill -- You'll have to go look him up yourself :) Have something to say?

Prologue I read an article the other day that got me thinking, and inspired me to get Wesley onto the podcast to talk about SOAR. Yes, SOAR is absolutely boring -  but that's OK, isn't it? What's the actual purpose of SOAR technology, and where is it being utilized today? Are we getting the most of this, or is it just a boring fad? All this and more on today's show.

Prologue We open this episode with an acknowledgement of the crisis in Ukraine, as Putin's madness is unleashed. We stand with the brave people of Ukraine as they defend themselves from unprecedented evil. That said, this week James and I bring Grant Sewell onto the show. Grant has experience being a "behind the scenes" CISO, and more recently in a customer-facing role. We discuss the evolution of the CISO into a "trust officer" and the focus that takes.
