Enterprise Security Weekly (Audio)

Tanium has recently released a new capability called Tanium Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) to help customers identify third-party libraries associated with software packages. • What is Tanium SBOM • Why is it different and why do you need it • How to configure SBOM • How to query for the details about every software application in your environment • Where your vulnerable packages exist • Ways that Tanium can remediate vulnerabilities from OpenSSL to Struts to Log4j today as well as new supply-chain vulnerabilities in the future   No one knows what the next supply chain vulnerability is going to be, but with Tanium, you will have access to data about how your applications are affected before it happens so that when it does, you're ready to take action to remediate the issue from within the Tanium XEM platform.   Segment Resources: https://www.tanium.com/products/tanium-sbom/  https://www.tanium.com/press-releases/tanium-launches-software-bill-of-materials-for-unprecedented-visibility-to-combat-supply-chain-threats/  https://www.tanium.com/blog/software-bill-of-materials-openssl/   This segment is sponsored by Tanium.

Don't worry - we’ll explain what insurtechs are. Two potential deals to take security companies private: Sumo Logic and Rapid 7! Looks like 32 year old security company Cyren is shutting down, hoping for an asset sale. They've already laid off all their employees. Big drama: a firm shorts Darktrace and releases a scathing report. We've got yet more more layoffs this week, but don't fret - the NSA is hiring!  For our squirrel stories, we'll be deciding between three stories: codebreakers solve 500 year old ciphers, the real cost of meetings visualized, and sushi terrorists!

Cyber insurance is a must-have, but organizations are finding that cyber insurance premiums are more costly, policies are more difficult to obtain, and policies attach more limitations and exclusions than before. We will discuss cyber insurance’s role in risk management and trends.   Segment Resources: https://www.forrester.com/report/q-and-a-cyber-insurance/RES178563?ref_search=3185990_1675109251447 https://www.forrester.com/report/tech-execs-guide-to-cyber-insurance/RES178564?ref_search=3185990_1675109251447 https://www.forrester.com/blogs/whos-responsible-for-cyber-insurance-policy-misrepresentations-it-depends/?ref_search=3185990_1675109251447   Insiders - employees, contractors, and partners - are responsible for almost a quarter of data breaches. Reducing insider risk requires a dedicated approach, including user monitoring. But be careful, Forrester predicts that a C-level executive will be fired for their firm’s use of employee monitoring in 2023.   Segment Resources: https://www.forrester.com/blogs/predictions-2023-security/?ref_search=3092262_1675290315432 https://www.forrester.com/blogs/apply-critical-thinking-and-culture-to-reduce-insider-risk/ https://www.forrester.com/blogs/practice-empathy-to-reduce-insider-risk/ https://www.forrester.com/blogs/pandemic-fallout-creates-perfect-conditions-for-insider-threat/     In the Enterprise News: There's lots of executive shuffling going on! Saviynt gets a new CEO and $205M in funding, Forescout appoints its 4th CEO in as many years, and Mudge finds a place at Rapid 7. We've got some interesting trends, like more focus on securing small businesses, and more cybersecurity startups pairing technology with cyber insurance. It seems like only yesterday, we were shocked to hear that Microsoft was running a $10B security business, but Microsoft has apparently now grown security revenue to $20 BILLION DOLLARS. Also, Tyler explains what Herman Miller chairs have to do with spotting market trends, we note the 20 year anniversary of SQL Slammer, and discuss why consumers don’t want smart appliances shoved down their throats!   Visit https://www.securityweekly.com/esw for all the latest episodes!

There's a LOT of noise in the security industry. We've catalogued over 10,000 cybersecurity products and each of the companies behind these products has a marketing team, a twitter account, a blog, and a ton of content to blast at enterprise security buyers. There's an interesting connection between GreyNoise's product, founder, and principles. While building a product that filtered out the noise that wastes most security operations teams' time, Andrew was dead set against building a startup that resembled the typical security startup. We'll discuss Andrew's unique path to market, the latest features of GreyNoise, and where the lines are drawn between malicious and benign scanning.    Show Notes: https://securityweekly.com/esw264   Visit https://www.securityweekly.com/esw for all the latest episodes!

If you’ve ever worked on a red or purple team, you know scaling engagements to production is an intensive, unwieldy process. Technology pitfalls may exist, but the fundamental problem is this: the process of writing, testing, deploying, and verifying the efficacy of TTPs is highly flawed and inconsistent. This conversation will focus on applying a scientific process to security testing in order to achieve production scale.

Despite certain economic indicators warning that a recession is on the horizon, investment remains healthy within the security market amid thirst for cloud security, in particular. One such emerging field is data security posture management (DSPM), which aims to bridge the gap between business goals and a comprehensive security mechanism that leaves no data behind as organizations scale in the cloud.   A deep-rooted cyber security culture is crucial, and it goes as far back as the hiring process… 10 years ago, a typical hiring process consisted of working your way through a checklist, hiring individuals based solely on a CV. Today, the ‘Simon Sinek’ culture is gaining more prevalence, with employers realizing that hiring the right person, rather than the CV, can have immeasurable benefits for business. Ryan will talk about why this is particularly true within the cyber security sphere, and why business leaders should follow this particular ‘Simon Sinek’ strategy to build a successful security operation, and secure business, starting directly with the human’s that run it. You will walk away from this session knowing why it is important to employ the right individual rather than the CV, and how adopting this approach can drastically improve how a business responds to and manages security threats, company wide.
