Today, I'm sharing something deeply personal and serious—my stalker story. For over a year, Timothy C. (we can share his full name soon if need be) has been physically stalking me, and his digital harassment goes back even further. Law enforcement is now involved, but I wanted to update you all in case anything happens to me—so there's no question about who did it. This episode isn't just about my experience; it's also about the reality of stalking, the dangers of obsession, and the importance of taking threats seriously. Stay aware, stay safe, and let's talk about it all, shall we?—https://noblegoldinvestments.com

This week I'm discussing a fundamental aspect of cybersecurity: incident response preparation. Effective incident response is paramount, and preparation is the key to success. This preparation includes comprehensive documentation, training, having the right tools and resources in place, and developing incident response plans and playbooks. It also involves ensuring clear communication protocols and conducting regular training and testing.  I'll explore preparation from the perspective of the investigation life cycle, where success is the reward for preparation. Join me as I uncover the importance of preparation in incident response and how it lays the foundation for success in investigations.

Salgado's rich experiences, from being an insurance investigator in Chicago to working on Facebook's global investigations division and being a key player amidst the Cambridge Analytica crisis, lay the foundation for this engrossing dialogue.Salgado elaborates on the unique challenges posed by cyber investigations—being analytical, yet organic; thorough, yet flexible—straddling between rigidity of process and fluidity of response. Pragmatism and diligent investigation are pitched alongside the usefulness of AI tools, which, as per Salgado, can be both ally and adversary.Highlighting the importance of operating within established processes, Salgado presses on the need for standardization and streamlining, without compromising on the inherently organic nature of investigative work. He underscores how modifiable Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) can uphold consistency and enable comprehensive learning, while staying legally sound and economically feasible.Salgado also draws attention to the flip-side of AI-tools—potential data-leaks and the threat of manipulated AI-platforms. Corporations employing AI must weigh their usage against the risks, envisaging issues of data-privacy, information-misuse, and disinformation before rolling out (or permitting vendors to use) AI-based systems.In a nutshell, this enlightening conversation delves into the complexities of cyber investigations, the indispensable role of AI, and the necessity of solid processes, making it a must-listen for cybersecurity enthusiasts and cyber sleuths alike.Top 3 Questions Addressed:What role do processes and standardization play in effective cyber investigations?How do AI tools aid in cyber investigations, and what are the potential risks?What potential risks does modern technology present, especially AI, in the context of cybersecurity?___________________________Watch this and other videos on ITSPmagazine's YouTube ChannelRedefining CyberSecurity Podcast with Sean Martin, CISSP playlist:

As a leader and program builder, Chris has built and managed several successful cybersecurity programs at large and small organizations across many business verticals and governments. He holds multiple certifications including Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) and Certified Cybercrime Examiner (CCCE). Chris frequently speaks at major security conferences and writes articles on cybersecurity, and in 2012, he was voted “85th Top Ranking CISO in the US.” In this episode… Open-source intelligence has provided public access to personal information on the internet, allowing hackers to compromise anyone's digital profile. With technology becoming increasingly pervasive in our daily lives, what steps can you take to reduce your digital footprint? According to Chris Bullock, attackers can steal data from your personal devices to be exchanged on the dark web. Most users aren't aware that seemingly mundane settings on these devices can collect and release your data. To prevent unwanted attacks, Chris recommends disabling location services, photo, and microphone access for all apps and deactivating the auto-join feature for Wi-Fi and Hotspots.  In today's episode of She Said Privacy/He Said Security, Jodi and Justin Daniels welcome Chris Bullock, Founder, CEO, and Managing Member of CI2A, to discuss tips for protecting your digital profile. Chris also explains open-source intelligence, the impact of privacy laws on data security, and how security attacks against high-profile individuals have evolved.
