WBSRocks: Business Growth with ERP and Digital Transformation
Due to the proliferation of IoT devices in manufacturing environments, the number of access points prone to attack has increased significantly. And while the OT environments don't have as thicker the code base as the IT environment, OT environments are less secure than IT. The lack of education in how to write production-ready software and a greater push for efficiency have been the reasons why OT devices are more prone to attack with higher safety consequences. In today's episode, our guests, Corey White and David Cundiff from Cyvatar share their insights into how the tradeoffs for greater efficiencies and OEE may be driving cybersecurity issues in the OT environments. They also take a deep dive into a car manufacturer's story where they ended up losing millions of dollars due to a ransomware attack within 8 hrs of attack. Finally, they describe the mechanics of ransomware, how the codebase in OT and IT differ, and why OT devices are harder to secure and more prone to attacks than IT due to the lack of standardization and skillsets of OT operators.For more information on growth strategies for SMBs using ERP and digital transformation, visit our community at wbs.rocks or elevatiq.com.

“In the best conversations, you don't even remember what you talked about, only how it felt. It felt like we were in some place your body can't visit, some place with no ceiling and no walls and no floor and no instruments” ― John Green, Turtles All the Way Down For Episode Two of our Black Hat coverage, we sat down for a chat with two Founders to see what their experience of Black Hat 2021 looked like. This was a raw, real conversation… no edits… no podcast host questions… just an ear into the types of conversations that we have missed out on over the past 19 months. Today's No Name Security Podcast sees Matt Stephenson joined by People By Mimi founder Mimi Gross and Cyvatar Co-Founder and CEO Corey White having a chat about all that is going on that week. We dig into what Cyvatar is doing to change the cybersecurity industry and how People By Mimi is changing the cybersecurity recruiting game with their approach to uniting people and companies by considering that releationship from a completely different POV. Think they don't have anything in common? Think again… check it out! About Mimi Gross Mimi Gross (@MimiGross13) is the Founder and CEO of People by Mimi. About Corey White Corey White is the Chief Executive and Experience Officer at Cyvatar. About Matt Stephenson Matt Stephenson (@packmatt73) leads the Social Media team at Forescout, which puts me in front of people all over the world. Prior to joining Forescout, I hosted podcasts, videos and live events all over the world which put me with experts on every corner of the cybersecurity landscape. The new No Name Security Podcast will continue and expand upon that tradition as we seak out the leading minds in the security industry as well as those may break things every now again. And… just for fun, there will be some wildcard guests as well. In 10 years in the ecosystem of Data Protection and Cybersecurity I have toured the world extolling the virtues of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning and how, when applied to information security, these technologies can wrong-foot the bad guys. Prior to the COVID shutdown, I was on the road over 100 days a year doing live malware demonstrations for audiences from San Diego to DC to London to Abu Dhabi to Singapore to Sydney. One of the funniest things I've ever been a part of was blowing up a live instance of NotPetya 6 hours after the news broke... in Washington DC... directly across the street from FBI HQ... as soon as we activated it a parade of police cars with sirens blaring roared past the building we were in. I'm pretty sure they weren't there for us, but you never know... Whether at in person events, live virtual events or podcasting, I get to interview interesting people doing interesting things all over the world of cybersecurity and the extended world of hacking. Sometimes, that means hacking elections or the coffee supply chain... other times that means social manipulation or the sovereign wealth fund of a national economy. Wherever I go, my job is all about talking with the people who build, manage or wreck the systems that we have put in place to make the world go round... If you tuned in to any of my previous podcasts, there's great news! The No Name Security Podcast is here! I will be bringing the same kind of energy and array of guests you know and love. Best part? We're still at the same spot. You can find it at Spotify, Apple, Amazon Music & Audible as well as, GooglePlay, Gaana, Himalaya, I Heart Radio and wherever you get your podcasts!

In today's episode, we will be talking with our good friends, Corey White and Craig Goodwin. They are the co-founders of Cyvatar (www.cyvatar.ai), a cybersecurity-as-a-service firm that is truly doing disruptive things in the ecosystem. Corey White (https://www.linkedin.com/in/coreydwhite) is a proven security industry veteran with more than twenty-five years of success managing security practices and consulting teams. His work encompasses virtually every industry, including government, critical infrastructure, finance, healthcare, and manufacturing. Corey has created Cyvatar.AI to enable vendor partners to deliver reliable, repeatable, and measurable business outcomes to clients. Corey also served as the SVP of Worldwide Consulting and Chief Experience Officer at Cylance as well as the Southwest Director of Consulting for Foundstone & McAfee/Intel Professional Services. Craig Goodwin (https://www.linkedin.com/in/craiggoodwin) leads product strategy, product management, and engineering functions as a member of Cyvatar's senior leadership team. Prior to that he has spent 20 years in the security industry, starting with the intelligence services in the United Kingdom, he then went on to hold the role of Global Chief Security Officer (CSO) for a number of large public and private sector organizations including Fujitsu, Monster Worldwide, Wolseley Group PLC and CDK Global. Craig has spent his career driving real business outcomes from his security organizations, positioning security as an enabler for digital trust and transformation rather than a hindrance.

Craig Goodwin is the Co-Founder and Chief Product & Strategy Officer at Cyvatar.ai, a cybersecurity startup building a platform that offers a membership-based model for cyber security-as-a-service. Prior to starting Cyvatar, Craig was the Chief Trust & Risk Officer at Fujitsu, the massive Japanese IT services company. Prior to Fujitsu, Craig spent time at CDK Global, Monster, and the UK Intelligence Services. While the majority of Business of Cyber episodes profile CISOs and unpack how they align security with the business, this episode digs into Craig's story for operating as a CISO and ultimately how he found himself co-founding a security start-up. There are a few things we specifically dug into this episode: How did a career as a CISO prepare him for success as an entrepreneur? What did he see that convinced him to leave his job and start this company? Why is the future of cybersecurity membership-based? Given he's a former CISO, how does he think about their GTM strategy and getting in front of their target buyers? Why is community building a more effective strategy than traditional GTM efforts?
