Competing in the digital marketplace will become increasingly difficult, as threat to businesses grow in speed and precision: Software and application weaknesses will continue to be leaked online with ever-decreasing time to fix them. The break-up of tech giants will plunge those reliant on their products and services into disarray and organisations rushing to deliver ambitious digital transformations will expose their vulnerabilities instead of cementing their resilience.  In the final podcast of the series, Steve Durbin Managing Director, ISF will discuss the third theme of our Threat Horizon 2021 series: Digital Competitors Rip Up the Rulebook. Steve will offer insights into the threats organisations face and the steps CISO’s can take to guard against them. https://www.securityforum.org/videos-podcasts/isf-podcast-threat-horizon-2021-digital-competitors-rip-up-the-rulebook/

The race to develop strategically important, next-generation technologies is laying the foundation for nation state-backed espionage where intellectual property (IP) is targeted. Cloud services will become a prime target for sabotage and drones will become both the weapon and target of choice as attackers turn their attention skywards. The question is, how can organisations, who are increasingly reliant on the cloud, prepare for this environment? In this podcast, Steve Durbin, Managing Director, ISF will discuss the second theme of our Threat Horizon 2021 series: How the Digital Cold war engulfs business. Steve offers insights into upcoming cyber threats and offers business leaders key advice to best prepare. https://www.securityforum.org/videos-podcasts/isf-podcast-threat-horizon-2021-digital-cold-war-engulfs-business/

Today, digital connectivity is essential in everyday life, and this is only set to increase over the next two years as we see technology such as the Internet of things (IoT) playing a vital role in business success. By 2021, vast webs of intelligent devices, combined with increased speeds, automation and digitisation will bring new possibilities within reach of businesses and consumers. However, increasingly complex digital connectivity will increase the number of attack surfaces, amplifying existing dangers and creating new ones.   In the second episode of our Threat Horizon podcast series, Steve Durbin, Managing Director, ISF will discuss digital connectivity and the potential vulnerabilities that this will expose. https://www.securityforum.org/videos-podcasts/isf-podcast-threat-horizon-2021-digital-connectivity-exposes-hidden-danger/

By 2021 the world will be heavily digitised and connected. The race to develop next generation technologies will enable innovative, digital business models, yet this will leave society critically dependent on technology to function. Coupled with heightened global mistrust and rising geopolitical tensions, this will lead to cyber threats that are relentless, targeted and disruptive.   In the first episode of our four part Threat Horizon  2021 series, Steve Durbin, Managing Director, ISF will identify the key threats that will effect organisations over the next 2 years and how business leaders and their teams can best prepare.  https://www.securityforum.org/videos-podcasts/isf-podcast-threat-horizon-2021-overview/

Nation-state cyber-attacks have increasingly occupied news headlines in the past few years from alleged Russian electoral interference to accusations of Iranian backed cyber-terrorist groups and Chinese theft of high-value intellectual property.  In the final episode of this two-part series, Steve Durbin, Managing Director, ISF, speaks with journalist Mike Eckel about the threats posed by nation-state-led cybercrime. Is it the government’s responsibility to protect you? Is your organisation a target? How do security teams convey the appropriate level of risk to their board?  Should companies be allowed to hack back?   In this podcast, we delve into both preparation and measures business leaders can implement to defend against nation-state cyber-attacks. https://www.securityforum.org/videos-podcasts/isf-podcast-the-enemy-is-the-state-cybersecurity-and-nation-state-attacks/

The power and influence of Russian cyber actors continue to rise, but where did this ability for cyber terrorism and espionage originate?  In the first episode of this two-part series, Steve Durbin, Managing Director ISF, speaks with journalist and Senior Washington correspondent for Radio Free Europe/ Radio Liberty Mike Eckel on the origins of Russian cyber terrorism. Together they discuss how the power and influence of Russian cyber actors have grown and the end game for Russian sponsored threat actors. https://www.securityforum.org/videos-podcasts/isf-podcast-the-origins-of-russian-cyber-terrorism/

"In today's modern way of doing business, when cyber breaches and information security make or break an organisation, there is an increased need for company structure and better use of technology."  Organisations focus most of their efforts on meeting strategic and financial targets. However, the board and security leaders need to be aware that this is when cybercriminals are most likely strike – leading to reputational damage and disruption to the financial bottom line. When a security breach happens, it is the CISO who shoulders the blame. In this podcast, Steve Durbin, Managing Director of the ISF, discusses how cyberspace is not just the responsibility of one or two individuals – but the whole organisation. When it comes to security best practices, collaboration between security leaders and the board is the key to success. https://www.securityforum.org/videos-podcasts/the-ceo-vs-the-ciso-the-security-breach-blame-game/

Even after many devastating examples of the impact of cyber-attacks on business, cyber is still drastically underestimated. Organisations must implement a successful security programme, with the board who are held accountable and have a thorough understanding of the risks to prepare for and the risks they are willing to accept.  In the final episode of this three-part series, Jeff Engle, Veteran of US Army Special Operations Commands and Vice President of Federal for United Data technologies, discusses with Steve Durbin, Managing Director, ISF the responsibility business leaders have when it comes to security and why they must be proactive in their approach. https://www.securityforum.org/videos-podcasts/isf-podcast-holding-the-board-accountable-for-security/
