DtSR Episode 389 - Leading Cyber Security in Academia
This week, DtSR dives into security leadership with an academic twist. We have the pleasure of hosting Robert Turner, the CISO of the University of Wisconsin, Madison. This episode was recorded March 13th, 2020 right as the University and other institutions across the country and the world started their efforts to social distance and work from home due to the Corona Virus (Covid-19) pandemic. Special thanks to Bob for taking the time out of his busy day, and crazy schedule given the times, to give us insights on his strategy, challenges, and successes!

DtSR Episode 388 - The SIEM is Dead Long May It Live
Welcome to episode 388, an episode at least 5 years in the making...mainly because it's taken this long to figure out a good way to get Anton on the podcast! Now that he's not an analyst anymore, I snagged him for an honest and open conversation about the one topic he has more expertise in than most anyone I know - the SIEM. We wax philosophically, I manage to show my ignorance of the state of the art and history of SIEM, and we talk about where SIEM is going. Join us on a great conversation I am thrilled to have been a part of. Guest Anton Chuvakin - Let's face it, it's really "The" Anton Chuvakin, right?

DtSR Episode 386 - Securing a Suddenly Remote Workforce
Covid-19 ... that's the headlines. Everywhere. The suddenly remote workforce is a problem for many enterprises, and as workers are forced to work from home - security is a problem.

Listen in, share, and let's hear what you think folks! Stay safe and well and most of all do not panic. Guest Brian Foster - https://www.linkedin.com/in/brianfoster1/ Have something to say?

DtSR Episode 385 - Malware on the Lifeline
Greetings! On this episode of the podcast we present to you an episode we recorded back in January (but then due to a storage error we lost temporarily) with Nathan Collier from Malwarebytes. Nathan reported some findings from his research that basically there was some pre-installed malware running around, impossible to uninstall, on low-cost mobile phones. That kind of villainy is unforgivable (praying on the weak!) so we wanted to hear the whole story...and then some. Here's one link to the full story, in case you're interested in reading it on your own... https://blog.malwarebytes.com/android/2020/01/united-states-government-funded-phones-come-pre-installed-with-unremovable-malware/ Guest: Nathan Collier - Malwarebytes Have something to say?

DtSR Episode 384 - Zero Trust Redux 2020
This week Rafal hosts Dr. Chase Cunningham, Forrester analyst and all-around security badass to redux Zero Trust. The last time we tackled the topic was Episode 222 with John Kindervag back in 2016 - so it's time to see what's new. Zero trust is more than just firewall rules, and it encompasses a lot of security technologies we don't even think about - so this update is a great primer for 2020.

DtSR Episode 382 - Jeremiah Grossman Doing the Basics
This week on DtSR Podcast, a long-awaited guest joins us. That's right, the one and only Jeremiah Grossman joins us live from a tropical paradise, and you need to hear his message. On this show we cover history, "the basics", and the necessity to know what your security attack surface looks like. It's perhaps one of the least sexy topics ever - but if you ignore it, you're pretty much screwed.

DtSR Episode 381 - 5G Security Implications
Welcome friends and fans! This week we go down the rabbithole with Russell Mohr of MobileIron as we talk about the security implications for 5G. The new standard unleashed upon the American consumer (but more importantly on the commercial market) is changing mobile communication and connectedness. About the guest... Russell Mohr is an expert in 5G and mobile technology, with a wide breadth of expertise in other areas as well. Apparently during the early part of the interview, he was attacked by a dog that tried to eat him (I may be guessing, but that's what it sounded like).
