  • Fantastic!

    Timely security info in this fast-moving era! These hosts are true cyber security experts.

    Highly recommend! This is the most helpful cybersecurity news available.

    Maybe the FBI cyberattack is meant as a statement on this current leadership of the FBI and the weakening of USA cybersecurity agencies.

    To critics, the current USA administration has dismantled some oversight agencies, and fired some cyber security experts. Not smart. Sometimes political party actions are important to cyber s... more

  • A decent InfoSec news program

    This show is in my top 5. It’s short, to the point and always up to date since they run it daily and I listen to each episode. I’m reserving a star still because in the past, they’ve run completely irrelevant “Bonus” podcasts which were completely unrelated to cybersecurity; I thought they got hacked. This was the intro to that show: “90% of Pregnant People Are Missing THIS Nutrient (Follow THIS Simple Diet…)” … David, please don’t do that again! 😅

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Do we still need Security Awareness Month?
Q: Should most businesses focus on deepfake threats or people using AI in potentially hazardous ways?
Both matter. Organizations should maintain phishing defenses, reduce vulnerabilities, automate patching where possible, harden systems when patching is not possible, build resilience, and govern AI tools.
Do we still need Security Awareness Month?
Q: Do we still need cybersecurity awareness?
Yes. Awareness should be continuous, extending beyond phishing training to teach people about AI risks, vulnerabilities, and safe use of emerging tools.
Defend At AI Speed: With Special Guest Adam Ely, Check Point Software
Q: What are some of the structural things that people have learned, that you've seen them learn, that they've applied so far that have been positive and that you would recommend?
Ely recommends helping employees gain practical experience with AI, making room for experimentation where possible, identifying AI already in use, and designing architecture and controls around intended uses and risks.
Defend At AI Speed: With Special Guest Adam Ely, Check Point Software
Q: If you were writing that today in the world of AI, how different would it be?
Ely says the core principles of responding to exploits and breaches remain timeless, but the speed, attributes of attacks, tools, and response requirements have fundamentally changed.
Cybersecurity Today on the Weekend October Panel
Q: Have you ever seen an attack like this?
Laura Payne says the motive behind the reported grocery-store refrigeration attack is unclear. She considers deliberate disruption and an unsuccessful ransom attempt as possible explanations.
