Joseph Menn: Cult of the Dead Cow: How the Original Hacking Supergroup Might Just Save the World Cult of the Dead Cow Mudge DilDog Sir Dystic Oxblood Ruffin Lord Digital Mixter Psychedelic Warlord You might not know who they are but they changed your life more than Lewis Rainieri, the I-pod and YouTube put together. Have you ever seen Hackers? The Net? Antitrust? Sneakers? If you’re a subscriber to the InSecurity podcast… odds are you’ve seen and love those movies as well as a list of others we could mention. If you like any of these flicks, then you know… or should know… that they all owe a debt to a group of men and women who changed the world over 30 years ago Long before there was a multi-billion dollar cyber industry, there were some ethical hackers who showed us that the Silicon Valley emperors had no clothes. They looked like misfits, but they showed us how insecure the Internet was and how to make it better” -- Richard A. Clarke, first White House "Cyber Czar" on Cult of the Dead Cow “We were pirates, not mercenaries… Pirates have a code.” -- Rob Beck; Former member @stake and Cult of the Dead Cow Ninja Strike Force; Much @Stake: The Band of Hackers That Defined an Era  In this episode of InSecurity, Matt Stephenson has the rare privilege of a chat with best selling author Joseph Menn on his latest blockbuster book, Cult of the Dead Cow: How the Original Hacking Supergroup Might Just Save the World. It’s been over 30 years, but Joe spoke with the original punk rock hacking collective about what they did and how they changed the world. Oh… and one of them is running for President of the United States. About Joseph Menn Joe Menn (@josephmenn) has been a professional journalist for three decades, specializing in technology stories since 1999. His  most recent book, Cult of the Dead Cow: How the Original Hacking Supergroup Might Just Save the World, was published in June 2019. The New York Times Book Review said: “The tale of this small but influential group is a hugely important piece of the puzzle for anyone who wants to understand the forces shaping the internet age." An adaptation of the book for Reuters revealed that Beto O'Rourke had been a member of the enormously influential group and drew the most engagement on Reuters.com in its history. Previously, Joe wrote Fatal System Error: the Hunt for the New Crime Lords who are Bringing Down the Internet. That book was the first serious journalism accusing the Russian intelligence agencies of working with organized cyber criminals. It also exposed Gambino crime family investments in Internet gambling operations, and was cited in that context by the Miami Herald and McClatchy Newspapers in their Pulitzer Prize-winning coverage of the Panama Papers money-laundering leaks.  Cult of the Dead Cow: How the Original Hacking Supergroup Might Just Save the World The shocking untold story of the elite secret society of hackers fighting to protect our privacy, our freedom — even democracy itself Cult of the Dead Cow is the tale of the oldest, most respected, and most famous American hacking group of all time. Though until now it has remained mostly anonymous, its members invented the concept of hacktivism, released the top tool for testing password security, and created what was for years the best technique for controlling computers from afar, forcing giant companies to work harder to protect customers. They contributed to the development of Tor, the most important privacy tool on the net, and helped build cyberweapons that advanced US security without injuring anyone. With its origins in the earliest days of the Internet, the cDc is full of oddball characters — activists, artists, even future politicians. Many of these hackers have become top executives and advisors walking the corridors of power in Washington and Silicon Valley. The most famous is former Texas Congressman and current presidential candidate Beto O’Rourke, whose time in the cDc set him up to found a tech business, launch an alternative publication in El Paso, and make long-shot bets on unconventional campaigns. Today, the group and its followers are battling electoral misinformation, making personal data safer, and battling to keep technology a force for good instead of for surveillance and oppression. Cult of the Dead Cow shows how governments, corporations, and criminals came to hold immense power over individuals and how we can fight back against them.  About Matt Stephenson Insecurity Podcast host Matt Stephenson (@packmatt73) leads the Security Technology team at Cylance, which puts him in front of crowds, cameras, and microphones all over the world.

Theresa Payton: Inside the War to Hijack Elections The velocity of social sharing, the power of recommendation algorithms, the scale of social networks, and the accessibility of media manipulation technology has created an environment where pseudo-events, half-truths, and outright fabrications thrive. Edward Murrow has been usurped by Alex Jones. But we’ve known this for a while… Renee DiResta; The Return of Fake News—and Lessons From Spam Sometimes on InSecurity… we like to have some fun. Sometimes we like to get technical. Sometimes… but not that often… we need to take things seriously. This week, we do some of each… but we don’t stray too far from taking it all seriously at the end. In this week’s episode of InSecurity, Matt Stephenson talks with an expert in securing information at the absolute highest levels of Federal Government. Theresa Payton has been putting in the legwork to find out what did and did not happen in the 2016 United States elections. Theresa has been researching a new book about what happens when opposing forces exert their will on the voting populace of a nation in order to alter the course of the electoral process. If we’ve already turned you off because you’ve made up your mind that something did or did not happen… well… stick around. Because today’s guest has likely served much closer to the Oval Office than any of us have. We’ll take a look at how we got here, who did it and why. Theresa Payton has a line on what has already happened and could happen to manipulate the coming 2020 US elections…  About Theresa Payton Theresa Payton (@TrackerPayton) is President and CEO of Fortalice Solutions, co-Founder of Dark Cubed, former White House CIO, star of the CBS hit show Hunted, and best-selling author of the book Privacy in the Age of Big Data.

Jay Prassl: Patch Your $#!% Are ALL of Your Apps and OSes up to date? Are you sure? How can you tell? An American Dental Association study in 2008 found that if you don’t brush your teeth you COULD DIE. The ADA recommends brushing your teeth twice a day for 4 minutes each time. What the hell does that have to do with anything? Stick around… According to Ponemon, nearly half of all companies they surveyed had suffered a breach. 57% of those companies were breached due to an unpatched vulnerability. A third of those companies KNEW they were vulnerable before the breach. The average company spends 321 labor hours a week managing their vulnerability response process. How’s that compare to spending 4 minutes, twice a day brushing your teeth? Starting to feel the connection there? In 2017, WannaCry affected over 200,000 machines in 150 countries over a weekend. The attack weapon was developed using NSA tools built to exploit Windows vulnerabilities. What I told you that Microsoft had released a patch for this vulnerability over a month before WannaCry hit? Speaking of Microsoft… our good friends at TripWire offer the following tell us that, in 2015, Microsoft alone issued 2804 patches. That’s roughly 56 patches every Tuesday… and that’s JUST Windows OS & applications Noodle on those numbers a bit… In this week’s episode of InSecurity, Matt Stephenson spoke with Automox CEO Jay Prassl about the role that patching plays in every business’s cybersecurity hygiene. He founded Automox based on one simple maxim: Patch Your $#!% When most of us think of key components in cybersecurity, we tend to think of things like ransomware attacks, security solutions that bog down your network or terrible things in TV and movies that sound technical but are actually ridiculous. What if you had a way to keep your network clean and up to date by doing something as simple and boring as keeping your Operating Systems and applications up to date… Take a walk with Jay Prassl and see what you think. About Jay Prassl Jay Prassl (@jprassl) is the Founder and CEO of Automox. Jay founded Automox founded to pursue a vision: the complete automation of endpoint configuration, patching, management and inventory. Prior to Automox, Jay led the marketing efforts at SolidFire. Before that, he was employee number five at LeftHand Networks, where he spent 10 years breaking new ground in the storage market with the company's distributed SAN solution. He led multiple parts of the LeftHand business through its acquisition by HP. Somehow… when not saving the world through his pursuit of cyber hygiene… Jay finds time to bike, swim and surf. Some of these hobbies are required by state law in order to live in Boulder, Colorado.  About Automox Automox (@AutomoxApp) was founded to pursue a disruptive new vision: the complete automation of endpoint configuration, patching, management and inventory.

Kim Crawley: We Need a Diversity of Brains in this World The National Autism Association states that Autism is a bio-neurological developmental disability that generally appears before the age of 3. Autism impacts the normal development of the brain in the areas of social interaction, communication skills, and cognitive function.  Since autism was first diagnosed in the U.S. the incidence has climbed to a rate of 1 in 59 children in the U.S. According to pop culture… it may be a super power as well. There seems to be a lot of Doctors on TV now who are on the Autism Spectrum like Dr. Temperance Brennan on Bones or Dr. Sheldon Cooper from The Big Bang Theory We also get the occasional action herosuch as Ryan Gosling’s The Driver or Lisbeth Salander from The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. And of course, the classic American underdog heroes Raymond Babbitt and Forrest Gump Out here in the real world… people on the Autism Spectrum are all around you. Most of them do not have Salander like superpowers, but rather are every day Janes and Joes who go to work, do their jobs and live their lives.  Ever wonder what’s it’s like to chat with someone on the Autism Spectrum? You shouldn’t… if CDC statistics are accurate, there are nearly 6.8 MILLION people on the Autism Spectrum in the United States In this week’s episode of InSecurity, Matt Stephenson sat down with respected security writer Kim Crawley to talk about the current state of the cybersecurity world, some of the issues with locking down IoT, drumming… and Kim’s recent diagnosis as being on the Autism Spectrum. Take a walk with Kim as she shares her experience in the security industry and why being on the Autism Spectrum is just another facet of her personality. For more information on Autism, go to www.autisticadvocacy.org and look for #ActuallyAutistic on Twitter About Kim Crawley Kimberly Crawley spent years working in consumer tech support. Malware-related tickets intrigued her, and her knowledge grew from fixing malware problems on thousands of client PCs.

Richard Stiennon: The IT Security Industry: A Complete History We here at InSecurity have a question… Why Hasn’t Anyone Catalogued the Entirety of the IT Security Industry? Why hasn’t the Cybersecurity industry gotten better at protecting all the things? There are SO many companies offering variations on existing solutions or brand new solutions… but the threats remain and the bad actors continue to be successful. Outside of The Internet… where can we go to get information on and analysis of the companies who are creating solutions that work? Can we learn where they came from?

Roy Christopher: Dead Precedents… How Hip-Hop Defines the Future   I have absolute control of the record. The thing was, you’re not supposed to touch the middle of the vinyl. DJs are going to hate you. People are going to hate you. You’re going to ruin these records. I decided… that this… was the only way to do this.  -- Grandmaster Flash   Let’s push the talk about hacking shall we? Hacking is about finding the vulnerable spots in any systems and making your own choices about how to improve that system... rarely with the permission of the system’s owners. Viewed through that prism, Hip-Hop has always been about hacking. Hacking was running 1000 feet of extension cord to a public outlet in order to have a Battle in the park. Hacking was a DJ talking over a record at a club. Hacking was Kool Herc throwing a party at 1520 Sedgwick Ave in the Bronx and not playing disco or pop music. Hacking was Grandmaster Flash touching the middle of the vinyl. Hacking is rhyming with Orange. Dr Roy Christopher has spent a lifetime listening to, researching, teaching and loving Hip-Hop. In this week’s episode of InSecurity, Matt Stephenson digs into the crates with Roy about how Hip-Hop hacked the world to become one of the most significant drivers of modern culture. This will likely be the first podcast you listen to this week featuring steganography, Li’l Pump and John Baptist Porta’s 1558 book series Magia naturalis Do we even need to go on…?     Dead Precedents: How Hip-Hop Defines the Future, uses the concerns and conceits of cyberpunk to thoughtfully remap hip-hop's spread from around the way to around the world. Its central argument is that the cultural practices of hip-hop culture are the blueprint to the 21st century, and that an understanding of its appropriation of language and technology is an understanding of the now. This book is about is the many ways that the foundations of hip-hop appropriation--allusions and creative language use, as well as technology and sampling--inform the new millennium.  -- www.roychristopher.com About Roy Christopher Roy Christopher (@RoyChristopher) marshals the middle between Mathers and McLuhan… He’s a self-described aging BMX and skateboarding zine kid.

He is currently a Visiting Assistant Professor at the University of Illinois-Chicago and a member of the Adjunct Faculty at Loyola University Chicago Disinformation has referred to Roy as “One of the Internet’s leading interviewers of subculture and new-science icons.” Oh… as a child, he solved the Rubik’s Cube competitively.

Greg Silberman: Keep Ya Nose Out My Business   Are the neighbors watching? Is the mail man watching me And I don't feel safe anymore Oh what a mess! I wonder who's watching me now Who? The I.R.S.?!?!       -- Rockwell, Somebody’s Watching Me, 1984 Privacy is fundamentally about the ethical and responsible handling of personal data - from initial collection to eventual deletion. It is about understanding the context under which data is shared, providing people choices over how their data is used, and it's about respecting the individual. Many in information security often confuse the goals of privacy and security, or believe that privacy is about secrecy. Put simply, privacy is why security is done and security is how privacy is achieved. It is easy to have security without privacy, but impossible to have privacy without security. In this week’s episode of InSecurity, Matt Stephenson takes a walk with Greg Silberman. Greg is the Chief Privacy Officer at Cylance and knows a thing or two about data privacy at the corporate, user and individual levels. Since the implementation of GDPR, coutries around the world are considering or implementing their own data privacy laws, with varying degrees of success. In the United States, we are about to see California lead with way with 2020’s California Consumer Protection Act. How will this impact business? What will it do to your favorite social media platforms? Will it affect you personally?  Come hear what Greg has to say. We won’t tell anyone About Greg Silberman Greg Silberman (@gpsilberman) is the Chief Privacy Officer and Vice President of Legal Affairs at Cylance. As Chief Privacy Officer, Greg oversees the implementation and enforcement of practices that manage data in accordance with the Cylance’s Privacy Principles with respect to employee and customer privacy. Greg has over 20 years’ experience working with companies to develop solutions to address complex business and legal issues at the intersection of intellectual property, privacy, and information security. Prior to joining Cylance in 2016, he was a partner in the Cybersecurity, Privacy, and Data Protection practice group in the Silicon Valley office of Jones Day. Earlier in his career, Greg served as Intellectual Property Counsel at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.  About Matt Stephenson Insecurity Podcast host Matt Stephenson (@packmatt73) leads the Security Technology team at Cylance, which puts him in front of crowds, cameras, and microphones all over the world.

InSecurity Podcast: Sara Lofgren: What the Hell does IoT Even Mean? An 80s keypad stuck on a 60s computer system. Take two things that work and nail them together Sam “The Falcon” Wilson Ultimate Galactus Trilogy– Warren Ellis IOT: even the name has different meanings to different people. While people in technology know that IOT stands for “Internet of Things,” what counts as a thing? IOT adoption is ramping faster than home PC or WWW adoption did. The small price tag, stand-alone nature, ease-of-use, and business value of IOT make it appealing to both individuals and industry. With any new technology, utility always proceeds security. So unsurprisingly, security is currently the biggest hurdle to adoption - or as some technologists joke, “there is no 'S' in IOT”. In this week’s episode of InSecurity, Matt Stephenson chats with Sara Lofgren about the present state and future of the Internet of Things. As discrete network boundaries continue to dissolve, the web of connected things will continue to grow and be increasingly vulnerable. These always connected, diverse, and limited-function devices will need a bold and visionary security solution that does not require human interaction. Sara wants to make sure that we are doing the needful to protect the Things, the Data and ourselves… About Sara Lofgren Sara Lofgren is the Channel Sales Engineering Manager at Cylance. She has been working in computer security for over a decade, with focus on solving enterprise security problems through the union of technology, people, and processes.

Poking the Bear: Three-Year Campaign Targets Russian Critical Infrastructure Nation-state conflict has come to dominate many of the policy discussions and much of the strategic thinking about cybersecurity. When events of geopolitical significance hit the papers, researchers look for parallel signs of sub rosacyber activity carried out by state-sponsored threat actors—espionage, sabotage, coercion, information operations—to complete the picture. After all, behind every story may lurk a cyber campaign. Rosneft is a Russian company which likes to refer to itself as one of the largest publicly traded oil companies in the world. According to the New York Times, it is also a prominent foreign policy toolof the Russian government. More than half of the company is owned by Moscow and serves as a major pillar of critical infrastructure for Russia as well as other neighboring nation states. Rosneft is a large company with a very wide reach. It plays a massive role in Russian critical infrastructure as well in surrounding countries. There are HUGE sums of money involved in its privatization. It also wields incredible domestic and international political power. All of these characteristics made it a highly likely and legitimate target of foreign espionage efforts. In today’s episode of InSecurity, Matt Stephenson talks with Cylance Directors of Threat Intelligence Jon Gross and Kevin Livelli about their new report: Poking the Bear. Their research team took a look at an Advanced Persistent Threat campaign which targeted many state-sponsored fuel and agricultural companies as well as critical infrastructure organizations.

InSecurity Podcast: Infogressive CEO Justin Kallhoff: How Much is Securing Your Business Worth? "The biggest bang for the buck in security is to ask for more money—because it's free!"  overheard at SecureWorld Chicago In today’s cybersecurity market, it can be difficult for a small business to catch the attention of the major security players. Oftentimes, those large players offer a scaled-back version of their enterprise solution at a lower price or a souped-up version of their consumer product. Neither option tends to meet the needs of the type of small business that is frequently the victim of a data breach. Especially when you consider that, according to the 2018 Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report, of those breaches 28% involved internal actors 30% included malware 68% took months or longer to discover Some folks in Lincoln, Nebraska didn’t particularly care for that status quo and decided to do something about it. Over the past decade, CEO Justin Kallhoff and the crew over at Infogressive have built an enterprise spread over 44 states and 20 countries, comprising over 30,000 seats.  In today’s episode of InSecurity, Matt Stephenson chats with Justin Kallhoff about the trials and tribulations of the Small to Medium enterprise in the contemporary world of Cryptovariants, ransomware and how MSSPs work to shoulder the burden of cybersecurity. About Justin Kallhoff Justin Kallhoff (@justinkallhoff) founded Infogressive Inc. in October of 2006 with a dream of creating a world-class team of information security professionals that could make a difference for clients spanning the globe. Over the past decade, Justin and the crew at Infogressive have built an enterprise spread over 44 states and 20 countries, comprising over 30,000 seats.

InSecurity Podcast: Lieutenant Colonel (Ret) Pete Schiefelbein: It’s Not Just Cybersecurity, It’s Information Security  The Cyber Security Forum Initiative (CSFI) is a non-profit organization headquartered in Omaha, NE and in Washington DC with a mission "to provide Cyber Warfare awareness, guidance, and security solutions through collaboration, education, volunteer work, and training to assist the US Government, US Military, Commercial Interests, and International Partners." CSFI was born out of the collaboration of dozens of experts, and today CSFI is comprised of a large community of nearly 81,000 Cyber Security and Cyber Warfare professionals from the government, military, private sector, and academia. Pete Schiefelbein is a key part of CSFI and works to provide the kind of training to military and private sector companies that can be the difference between a major data breach and just another day at the office. In today’s episode of InSecurity, Matt Stephenson chats with Pete about a broad spectrum of topics including the evolution of the Marine Corps into a state of the art Cyber Defense unit as well its traditional role as an elite wartime fighting force. They dig into the notion of generational change and how it can effect a military organization. Further, Matt and Pete dig into the notion of information security compared to cybersecurity. Oh… and for good measure, they even talk a bit about the fact that Pete and his son are both Eagle Scouts and the role scouting is playing in developing the next generation of cybersecurity professionals.

InSecurity Podcast: Jeff Tang is Beggin’ You… Stop Trying to Make “Weaponized” Cyber Happen     The Missing Persons tried to tell usin the 1980s… “Media overload bombarding you with action It's getting near impossible to cause distraction Someone answer me before I pull out the plug What are words for when no one listens anymore” When it comes to cybersecurity, who is telling you the right things? And we don’t mean who is telling you the truth. We mean who is using the right words to describe the things and the actions that are affecting you and your ability to protect your data. Everywhere Jeff Tang looks, he is besieged with news stories using terms like “weapons-grade exploits” to describe the latest malware outbreak. The narrative constructed that results from this colorful language is detrimental to the progress of securing our computer networks, because it seeks to categorically apply the metaphor of military conflict to cybersecurity - and not every incident in cyber conflict qualifies as a military-style “attack.” In today’s episode of InSecurity, Matt Stephenson chats with Cylance Executive Mischief Consultant Jeff Tang about the value of words in cybersecurity. Jeff explains why it is mind boggling to compare the inconvenience of not being able to access your social media or online banking to a real-world kinetic attack that causes mass human causalities. Join us and understand that, while computers work in a world of binaries, that doesn’t mean our thinking about them has to be binary as well. It’s time we transition away from these military terms when discussing cybersecurity – or face the real-world consequences. About Jeff Tang Jeff Tang(@mrjefftang) is a Senior Security Researcher at Cylance focused on operating systems and vulnerability research. He started his career as a Global Network Exploitation & Vulnerability Analyst at the National Security Agency, where he conducted computer network exploitation operations in support of national security requirements. Prior to Cylance, Jeff served as the Chief Scientist at VAHNA to develop a security platform for identifying targeted network intrusions, and also worked as a CNO Developer at ManTech where he researched tools, techniques and countermeasures in computer network vulnerabilities. Jeff completed his Bachelor of Science (BSc) in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the University of California, Berkeley and a Master of Science (MSc) in Offensive Computer Security at Eastern Michigan University.

Chris Stephen on What Separates Cylance from the Herd For over a century, IBM has urged the world to “Think.” In 1997, Apple challenged the world to “Think Different.” In 2012, Cylance picked up that mantle and charged at the Cybersecurity world with a different approach to protecting endpoints. Was this legit? Is Cylance actually doing things differently in a way that is improving cybersecurity and not just renaming existing approaches? Chris Stephen is on the front lines of the ongoing battle to protect datacenters and networks worldwide. He is a  Sales Engineer who works in the government and education sector and thus sees the kind of targeted attacks that can cripple a municipality and cause real damage to the nation’s infrastructure. In this week’s episode of DirtySecurity, guest host Matt Stephenson talks with Chris about what Cylance is doing that is so fundamentally different from the old guard of the cybersecurity industry and the new kids trying to make a splash. Are Cylance’s claims about Artificial Intelligence real? Tune in and judge for yourself. About Chris Stephen Chris Stephen is a Senior Sales Engineer for Cylance based in the Southeast United States. He holds multiple medical device patents and is an Apple Certified Genius. He is really really good at Magic the Gathering but doesn’t like to talk about that outside of that particular circle.

InSecurity Podcast: The White Company: Inside the Operation Shaheen Espionage Campaign The tumultuous inner-drama of Pakistan has been keeping foreign heads of state awake at night for much of the country’s 70-year history. That’s because Pakistan’s story has been one of contradictions. It has enjoyed peaceful civilian rule, but also violent military coups. It has been a key counterterrorism partner in Afghanistan, but also an accused sponsor and enabler of terrorists. It has been outwardly focused on deterring its rival India, but also inwardly focused on managing domestic separatist and terrorist threats. It has been the home of more than 100 nuclear weapons, but also the most notorious terrorist in history, Osama bin Laden. At the heart of Pakistan’s curious and contradictory history has been its military, whose outsized in uence in Pakistani a airs has made it a key actor at home and abroad, playing roles both highly visible and long hidden. Today, the Pakistani military is at the center of shifting geopolitical alliances — and a sustained cyber espionage campaign. Cylance calls this campaign Operation Shaheen, a reference to the Shaheen Falcon which stands as the symbol of the Pakistani Air Force — the branch of the Pakistani military repeatedly referenced in this campaign’s phishing lures. In today’s episode of InSecurity, Matt Stephenson talks with Cylance Advisory Board Member Ryan Smith and Cylance Directors of Threat Intelligence Jon Gross and Kevin Livelli. Their research team unravel the mystery of a campaign in which traditional approaches to analysis, focused primarily on the malware and infrastructure, yielded few clues and misleading assumptions; however, a comprehensive breakdown of the exploit and shellcode revealed insights into a threat actor whose unique way of cobbling together tools may ultimately lead to their unmasking.   About Ryan Smith Ryan Smith is a member of the Cylance Advisory Board. Prior to that, he was the Vice President of Research at Cylance, where he lead teams performing both internal and external research. He has spent the last decade leading such teams for consulting, product, and fortune 50 organizations. As an individual contributor, Ryan has discovered and exploited highly impactful vulnerabilities in widely deployed client and server software. His interests include reverse engineering, exploitation, vulnerability discovery, analysis algorithms, and magnets. He has spoken at international conferences and is a two-time Pwnie Award winner for best server and client bugs. About Jon Gross Jon Gross is a Director of Threat Intelligence at Cylance.

InSecurity Podcast: Steve Snyder on the past, present and  future of currency Fortnite and Bitcoin and Dollars OH MY! What makes real money... REAL? What if I told you a man named Matthew Mellon owned a cache of Ripple that at one point was valued at over $1 BILLION and was still worth over $500 MILLION at the time of his unexpected death Mellon claimed to have kept the digital keys to his Ripple wallet locked in cold storage in other people's names at various locations around the US What does the family of the deceased do in a situation like this? What does anyone do with the notion of hundreds of millions of dollars in value that is locked away and utterly inaccessible? What the hell is Ripple anyway?

InSecurity Podcast: Why is Cylance entering the consumer market? What if I told you that 67% of workers use their own personal devices while at work 37% of US workers telecommute What if you asked me “why should I care?” Cloud-based solutions (Office365, DropBox, Box, Trello, Atlassian, etc) allow employees to access corporate assets from personal devices Employees can connect USB thumb drives to personal devices infected with malware, then plug them into a company device Employees can access corporate email on personal devices Telecommuters can VPN into work from a personal device Cached credentials from employees logging into company assets from a personal device could be stolen by malware Web-cam enabling malware on a personal device could spy on and compromise employees The virtual borders of a Corporate network are no longer defined by the corporate firewall. With the proliferation of work and personal devices at home, the distinction between the corporate network and employee’s home networks have become blurred. CISOs and their Security Teams have a difficult time controlling their security risk and exposure from cybersecurity threats originating from employee’s homes. Think you’ve got the kind of security solution in place you need to protect your network from not just the bad guys, but hard-working employees? In this episode of the InSecurity Podcast, Hiep Dang and Edward Preston join Matt Stephenson to introduce Cylance’s new baby… Cylance Smart Antivirus. Hiep and Edward will explain how Cylance is bringing their groundbreaking, enterprise security solutions to the home user.

Hiep’s sweet spot is product management because it is at the intersection of product strategy and technical execution. During the day, he geeks out on building innovative security products and at night Hiep teaches Kung Fu.

InSecurity Podcast: Katie Moussouris answers the question… Should the pursuit of coding perfection always include Bug Bounties? What if I told you that the industry average is 15-50 bugs per 1000 lines of code? You may not care if you’re creating a Word doc. What if you are in charge of launching the latest SpaceX rocket? What if you are Lewis Hamilton driving for Mercedes Formula 1 and a software glitchcauses you to lose a 3 second lead at the Australian Grand Prix? What if you are a general in charge of military forces using tools that include the same software I can buy on Amazon or Ali Baba? With so much of our world now driven by software, everything is on the line: money, property, lives. Perfection is never going to be an option, but it is fair to say that we need to be as close to perfect as possible No small feat… and no pressure on folks like today’s guest Katie Moussouris joins Matt Stephenson on the InSecurity podcast to talk about bugs and bug bounties and the impact they can have on security and privacy. Katie is an industry legend perhaps best known for creating Microsoft’s first Bug Bountyprogram in 2013. In this episode of the InSecurity Podcast, Katie Moussouris breaks it down for Matt Stephenson. Who needs a bug bounty? Is a bug bounty program even appropriate for a company? There are risks in every question and every answer. About Katie Moussouris Katie Moussouris(@k8em0) is the founder and CEO of Luta Security, specializing in helping businesses and governments work with hackers to better defend themselves from digital attacks.  She is a noted authority on vulnerability disclosure & bug bounties, advising companies, lawmakers, & governments on the benefits of hacking& security.

What if I told you that there are companies out there who deliberately spoof data breaches in order to blackmail their “customers” into paying for their “breach remediation services”? What if I told you that, after failing to be a good little victim to such a scam, LabMD began hearing from the Federal Trade Commission about its security and technology practices? Would you believe me if I said that, in a battle that is now in its 17thyear, our guest has attempted the impossible and stood up to the crooks and the FTC? Rather than settle a case that he knew was wrong, our guest refused to live in the world he was given. He has battled to change that world and keep his company’s name and his own name from being steamrolled by the bureaucracy of a government agency that may not really know what they are doing when it comes to data privacy and security. Joining Matt Stephenson on the InSecurity podcast are Mike Daugherty and Malcolm Harkins. Mike is the CEO of LabMD who refused to be the victim of a shady “Breach Mediation” company, which led to a decade long battle with the Federal Trade Commission. Malcolm is the Chief Security & Trust Officer at Cylance. He is not one to sit idly by and let the cybersecurity industry focus on profits over people. Imagine what might happen when you get these two in a room together… About Mike Daugherty Mike Daugherty is embroiled in the biggest regulatory cybersecurity legal battle in the country today. The CEO of LabMD, a cancer testing laboratory, author, speaker, consultant and policy advocate, he has spent most of the last decade defending his company against charges that it had deficient cybersecurity practices. The early years of his entering and fighting Washington, DC, are recorded in his book, The Devil Inside the Beltway. In so doing, he has become the only litigant to challenge the basic authority that underlies more than 200 enforcement actions relating to cybersecurity and online privacy that the FTC has brought over the past 15 years. Every one of the 200+ litigants before him – including some of the largest companies in the world – have settled with the FTC, creating an unquestioned and untested belief that the FTC has broad authority to regulate in these areas. Following oral arguments in June, 2017, before a panel of the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals, on June 6, 2018, he actually prevailed. In so doing, he toppled key pillars of the FTC’s cybersecurity and online privacy edifice, successfully exposing and challenging The Administrative State. The cybersecurity regulatory framework for all of industry has been flipped on its head. About Malcolm Harkins As the Chief Security and Trust Officer at Cylance, Malcolm Harkins (@ProtectToEnable) is responsible for all aspects of information risk and security, security and privacy policy, and for peer outreach activities to drive improvement across the world in the understanding of cyber risks and best practices to manage and mitigate those risks. Previously, he was Vice President and Chief Security and Privacy Officer at Intel Corp.

Clint Watts: Social Media Manipulation What if I told you that the most effective way to hack an election isn’t injecting code into a voting machine or surreptitiously changing the vote count, but rather by means of clever and extensive use of popular social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter? The major platforms are designed to be able to target specifics groups of people who fit specific profiles demographically. Nefarious organizations can use those platform features to influence public opinion and dialogue. Bots can create what appear to be armies of people who publish what seems on the surface to be “news” that finds a home with like-minded people. And that, friends, is how someone half a world away can sway an election from an iPhone. In this episode of the InSecurity Podcast, host Matt Stephenson is joined by special guest Clint Watts, national security contributor at MSNBC and author of the recently released best-selling book Messing with the Enemy: Surviving in a Social Media World of Hackers, Terrorists, Russians, and Fake News. About Clint Watts Clint Watts (@selectedwisdom) is a Robert A. Fox Fellow in the Foreign Policy Research Institute’s Program on the Middle Eastas well as a Senior Fellow at the Center For Cyber and Homeland Security at The George Washington University. Watts is a consultant and researcher modeling and forecasting threat actor behavior and developing countermeasures for disrupting and defeating state and non-state actors. His research predominately focuses on terrorism forecasting and trends seeking to anticipate emerging extremist hotspots and anticipate appropriate counterterrorism responses. More recently, Watts used modeling to outline Russian influence operations via social media and the Kremlin’s return to Active Measures.
