Description

In this conversation, the hosts discuss patchless patching, vulnerabilities in the Windows TCP/IP stack, and the trustworthiness of Microsoft. They highlight the challenges of marketing in the cybersecurity industry and the importance of building trust with customers. The conversation also touches on the need for vendors to prioritize security and code quality over rushing products to market. Overall, the hosts express concerns about the frequency of security vulnerabilities and the potential impact on customer trust. Other topics of discussion include the Innovators and Investors Summit at Black Hat, the potential sale of Trend Micro, layoffs in the industry, and the controversy surrounding room searches at DEF CON. They also touch on the concept of time on the moon and its implications for future lunar missions. Devo, the security analytics company, recently launched data orchestration, a data analytics cloud, and security operations center (SOC) workflow enhancements. Enterprise security teams are struggling with growing data volumes—and they’re also up against headcount and budget constraints. These solutions offer security teams data control, cost optimizations, and efficient automation for better security outcomes.

As security monitoring has gotten more mature over the years, remediating security vulnerabilities is still stuck in the dark ages requiring mountains of CVE reports and thousands of manual tasks to be done by network engineers at the wee hours of the nights and weekends. Cyber resilience requires a more continuous approach to remediation, one that does not depend on manual work but also one that can be trusted not to cause outages.

Many cybersecurity experts are calling recent attacks on healthcare more sophisticated than ever. One attack disrupted prescription drug orders for over a third of the U.S. and has cost $1.5 billion in incident response and recovery services. Separately, an operator of over 140 hospitals and senior care facilities in the U.S. was also victimized. These attacks are becoming all too common. Disruptions can lead to life-and-death situations with massive impacts on patient care. All industries, especially healthcare, have to better prepare for ransomware attacks. Are you ready to turn the tables on threat actors? Marty Momdjian, Semperis EVP and General Manager provides advice on how hospitals can regain the upper hand. This segment is sponsored by Semperis.

The annual report details the latest ransomware attack trends and targets, ransomware families, and effective defense strategies. Findings in the report uncovered an 18% overall increase in ransomware attacks year-over-year, as well as a record-breaking ransom payment of US$75 million – nearly double the highest publicly known ransomware payout – to the Dark Angels ransomware group.
