Zero Trust isn't a new concept, but not one easily implemented. How do organizations transform cybersecurity from a "default allow" model, where everything is permitted unless blocked, to a "default deny" model? Danny Jenkins, Co-founder and CEO at ThreatLocker, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss this approach. Deny by default means all actions are blocked by default, with only explicitly approved activities allowed. This shift enhances security, reduces vulnerabilities, and sets a new standard for protecting organizations from cyber threats. ‍ Danny will discuss how ThreatLocker not only protects your endpoints and data from zero-day malware, ransomware, and other malicious software, but provides solutions for easy onboarding, management, and eliminates the lengthy approval processes of traditional solutions. This segment is sponsored by ThreatLocker. Visit https://www.securityweekly.com/threatlocker to learn more about them!

This week, it's double AI interview Monday! In our first interview, we discuss how to balance AI opportunities vs. risk. Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the potential to revolutionize how businesses operate. But with this exciting advancement comes new challenges that cannot be ignored. For proactive security and IT leaders, how do you balance the need of security and privacy in AI with the opportunities that come with accelerating adoption? Matt Muller, Field CISO at Tines, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss the unprecedented challenges facing Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) and approaches to mitigate AI's security and privacy risks. In this interview, we'll discuss ways to mitigate AI's security and privacy risks and strategies to help ease AI stress on security teams. Segment Resources: - https://www.tines.com/blog/cisos-report-addressing-ai-pressures/ - https://www.tines.com/blog/ai-enterprise-mitigate-security-privacy-risks/ In our second interview, we dig into the challenges of securing Artificial Intelligence. Are you being asked to secure AI initiatives? What questions should you be asking your developers or vendors to validate security and privacy concerns? Who better to ask than Summer Fowler, CISO at Torc Robotics, a self-driving trucking company.

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.

From online banking to mobile payments, nearly every aspect of our financial lives relies on digital systems. This reliance has brought incredible convenience, but it also means that any disruption — whether due to cyberattacks, system failures, or operational incidents— can have severe consequences.    The Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) provides the framework to ensure that financial entities have robust measures to withstand and recover from disruptions. By addressing vulnerabilities in this highly digitized ecosystem, DORA not only protects financial institutions but also safeguards the stability and well-being of the European society as a whole. Madelein van der Hout, Senior Analyst at Forrester, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss why DORA is important, how prepared financial institutions are, the consequences of failing to comply, and the impact these regulations will have outside of the EU, including fines up to 2% of global annual turnover or €10 million—whichever is higher. In the leadership and communications segment, Cybersecurity Responsibilities Across the C-Suite: A Breakdown for Every Executive, Humble Leaders Inspire Others to Step Up, Effective Communication in the Workplace, and more!

The Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) Act was a watershed moment in corporate governance, fundamentally altering how companies approached financial reporting and internal operational controls. By holding executives personally accountable for the accuracy of financial reports, SOX restored investor confidence in the wake of corporate malfeasance. The SEC's new cybersecurity rule represents a similar pursuit to restore investor confidence — this time for the digital age, centered on integrating cybersecurity into overall risk management. Padraic O'Reilly, Founder and Chief Innovation Officer at CyberSaint, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss the similarities between SOX and SEC's Cyber Rule. The SEC's cybersecurity rule introduced several vital requirements that build on the principles established by SOX, including: Companies must report material cybersecurity incidents on Form 8-K, ensuring timely and transparent disclosure to investors. Companies must provide regular updates on their cybersecurity risk management policies, the role of management in implementing these policies and the board's oversight of cybersecurity risks. The rule encourages companies to disclose the cybersecurity expertise of their board members, highlighting the importance of informed oversight in managing cyber risks. The rule requires cybersecurity disclosures to be presented in Inline Extensible Business Reporting Language, or Inline XBRL, ensuring consistency and comparability across filings.
