Cybersecurity teams were under increasing strain in 2024. To alleviate this burden, 2025 will see greater reliance on automation to streamline workflows, enhance threat detection, and accelerate incident response. But some of these investments may come with risks. Greg Sullivan, Founding Partner at CIOSO Global, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss how the pace of investment will require better risk management. Greg will cover topics, including: The seismic C-level shift in interest will require a top-down approach to cybersecurity. The focus will shift from external cybersecurity solutions to building in-house resilience. The critical criteria needed to drive more refined defenses, smarter resource allocation, and wiser cybersecurity investments. In the leadership and communications segment, Boards Challenged to Embrace Cybersecurity Oversight, Why Cybersecurity Needs More Business-Minded Leaders, How to Build a Cybersecurity Resume that Gets You Hired, and more!

LLMs are helping devs write code, but is it secure code? How are LLMs helping appsec teams? Keith Hoodlet returns to talk about where he's seen value from genAI, where it fits in with tools like source code analysis and fuzzers, and where its limitations mean we'll be relying on humans for a while. Those limitations don't mean appsec should dismiss LLMs as a tool. It means appsec should understand how things like context windows might limit a tool's security analysis to a few files, leaving a security architecture review to humans.

It feels like forever ago, but in the mid-2010s, we collectively realized, as an industry, that prevention was never going to be enough. Some attacks were always going to make their way through. Then ransomware got popular and really drove this point home. Detection engineering is a tough challenge, however. Where do we start? Which attacks should we build detections for? How much of the MITRE ATT&CK matrix do we need to cover? How often do these detections need to be reviewed and updated? Wait, are any of our detections even working? In this interview with Michael Mumcuoglu, we'll discuss where SecOps teams get it wrong. We'll discuss common pitfalls, and strategies for building more resilient and effective detections. Again, as an industry, we need to understand why ransomware attacks keep going unnoticed, despite attackers using routine techniques and tools that we see over and over and over again.

What does a mature SecOps team look like? There is pressure to do more with less staff, increase efficiency and reduce costs. JP Bourget's experience has led him to believe that the answer isn't a tool upgrade, it's better planning, architecture, and process. In this interview, we'll discuss some of the common mistakes SecOps teams make, and where to start when building the SOC of the future. Show Notes: https://securityweekly.com/esw-399

Organizations continue to suffer from security breaches, too many of which contain a human element. But there’s no consistent definition of the risk posed by human-related breaches, and recommendations are often limited to security awareness and training (SA&T). Understanding the depth and breadth of human-related breaches is critical to implementing adequate security controls within organizations. Jinan Budge, Research Director at Forrester, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss their Best Practice Report on Deconstructing Human-Element Breaches. Jinan will cover the breadth of human-related breaches, including: Social Engineering Human Error Loss/Theft of Physical Assets Social Media Compromise Insider Risk Deep Fake Scams Gen AI Misuse Narrative Attacks and why Security and Awareness Training is not the sole answer to solving human-related breaches. Join us, this discuss may get a little dicey.
