ESW #264 - Jeff Styles & Andrew Morris
Managing firewall rule reviews, especially for PCI-DSS, can be complex but it doesn't have to be. Hear from Jeff Styles as he talks about how you can automate this process to keep you compliant and secure. 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. In the Enterprise Security News for this week: Google intends to acquire Mandiant HelpSystems to pick up Alert Logic - at least their 11th security acquisition in the past 3 years, Rumor that Abnormal Security could be our next security unicorn, Axonius raises a $200M Series E, A number of AppSec and cloud security startups raise their first big rounds, SEC requires public companies to report breaches within 4 days,Did we mention Google is buying Mandiant?
