Data protection, disinformation  and hybrid threats: impact on national security in the digital ageThe objective of this talk is to provide a view on the problem of the importance and role of strategic global policies and investments in the protection and resiliency of critical infrastructure, national and international, in the context of modern hybrid threats. Disinformation, broadly defined as false information intended to mislead, emanates from both states and non-state actors, and affects communities across the globe. Fake news and deception are ages-old phenomena, but the digital age has facilitated the amplification and manipulation of false information to an unprecedented extent threw internet and new media. Acknowledging the importance of disinformation and its consequences and considering the fact that in future wars the primary target of the attack is going to be critical infrastructure (one or more) the cyberspace will be a tool for conducting attack(s) threw hybrid threats. Potential solution to the problem of insufficient state protection of critical infrastructure should be observed through the prism of building investment policies in broader national strategies for protecting critical infrastructure as well as national security budget defence expenditures/allocations leading to higher level of protection and resiliency of critical infrastructure.Short bioProf. dr. sc.

When it comes to data protection, the word “immutability” often feels like it belongs in the realm of enterprise giants with complex infrastructure and massive budgets. But during this RSAC Conference conversation, Sterling Wilson, Field CTO at Object First, makes a strong case that immutability should be, and can be, for everyone.Wilson brings a grounded perspective shaped by his experience on the floor at RSAC, where Object First made its debut as a sponsor. The energy, he notes, was contagious: not just among vendors, but also from practitioners expressing serious concerns about their ability to recover data post-incident. These conversations weren't hypothetical; they were real worries tied to rising insurance premiums, regulatory compliance, and operational survivability. And at the core of all this? Trust in the data backup process.Agentic AI, AI capable of making decisions independently, is one of the trends Wilson flags as both promising and risky. It offers potential for improving preparedness and accelerating recovery. But it also raises concerns around access and control of sensitive data, particularly if exploited by adversaries. For Sterling, the opportunity lies in combining proactive readiness with simplicity and control, especially for those who aren't traditional security practitioners.Object First is doing just that through OOTBI: Out of the Box Immutability. And yes, there's a mascot: OOTBI. More than just a marketing hook, OOTBI represents a shift toward making backup and recovery systems approachable, usable, and, importantly, accessible. According to Wilson, the product gets users from “box to backup” in 15 minutes... with encrypted, immutable storage that meets critical requirements for cyber insurance coverage.Cost, Wilson adds, is a key barrier that often prevents organizations from reaching data protection best practices. That's why Object First now offers consumption-based pricing models. Whether a business is cloud-first or scaling fast, it's a path to protection that doesn't require breaking the budget.Ultimately, Wilson emphasizes education and community as critical drivers of progress. From field labs where teams can configure their own Opi, to on-location conference conversations, the company is building awareness, and reducing fear, by making secure storage not just a feature, but a foundation.This episode is a reminder that effective cybersecurity isn't only about innovation; it's about inclusion, practicality, and trust... both in your tools and your team.Learn more about Object First: https://itspm.ag/object-first-2gjlNote: This story contains promotional content. Learn more.Guest: Sterling Wilson, Field CTO, Object First | https://www.linkedin.com/in/sterling-wilson/ResourcesLearn more and catch more stories from Object First: https://www.itspmagazine.com/directory/object-firstLearn more and catch more stories from RSA Conference 2025 coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/rsac25______________________Keywords:sean martin, marco ciappelli, sterling wilson, immutability, agentic, ai, backup, recovery, cybersecurity, insurance, brand story, brand marketing, marketing podcast, brand story podcast______________________Catch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-and-cybersecurity-conference-coverageWant to tell your Brand Story Briefing as part of our event coverage? Learn More

AFCEA'S TechNet Cyber conference held in Baltimore, Maryland was the perfect opportunity to sit down with Greg Carl, Principal Technologist from Pure Storage. Pure Storage is used by 175 federal agencies.  Time to sit down from a subject matter expert and explain their value proposition. Today's federal government is attempting to accomplish digital modernization through a move to the cloud and, at the same time, reduce staff.  To multiply the risk associated with this endeavor, we see an increase in cyber attacks on data at rest, in transit, and while in use.  Greg Carl drills down on how Pure Storage can help federal leaders in several areas, he begins with Retrieval Augmented Generation, RAG. People have jumped into AI without knowing how to structure a large language model, the popular LLM.  RAG focuses on text generation and tries to make sure the data collected is accurate, relevant, and contextually aware. Pure Storage asks, if RAG protects the results of a query, what protects the “Retrieval” part of RAG.  We know LLMs are being attacked every day.  Malicious code could be placed in a LLM, and the RAG system might not know. A decade ago, backups were child's play.  A server down the hall, a backup appliance.  Today, one needs an agile cloud solution to perform continuous backups in a hybrid world.  One way to gain resilience is to use immutable backups where the attacked system can be restored and not lose valuable time. Speed and security handling important data activities can reduce costs for federal leaders by improving accuracy of LLMs and speed the time to recover after an attack.

In today's episode of Tech Talks Daily, I sit down with Christian Reilly, Field CTO for EMEA at Cloudflare, the Connectivity Cloud company, to examine the latest findings from their cybersecurity research and what they reveal about how prepared different industries really are. While sectors like IT, gaming, and financial services have seen a higher volume of cyberattacks, they also report greater readiness and resilience. In contrast, industries like education and healthcare, although less frequently targeted, remain far less prepared to defend against growing threats. This gap raises important questions about how organizations approach security depending on their legacy systems, revenue models, and digital maturity. Christian brings years of frontline experience to the discussion and shares actionable insights into how companies can build cybersecurity strategies that not only protect but also improve performance. From the shift toward zero trust architecture to the critical role of board-level engagement, we explore how forward-thinking organizations are rethinking the role of cybersecurity in modern digital operations. He explains why simplicity often beats complexity, and how reducing friction for end users is key to long-term resilience. We also look ahead to some of the key trends shaping the future of security. Christian dives into the challenges posed by emerging technologies such as quantum computing, AI, and the explosion of data generated by IoT and smart infrastructure. He stresses the importance of preparing now for scenarios like Harvest Now, Decrypt Later, and why organizations need to begin thinking seriously about post-quantum cryptography. On the human side, Christian outlines what effective training looks like today and how to shift employee culture from compliance to awareness. If you're wondering how to stay one step ahead of evolving threats, this conversation offers a wealth of insight from the heart of the Connectivity Cloud. How is your organization preparing for what's coming next?

In today's threat environment, it's not enough to back up your data—you have to be able to trust that those backups will be there when you need them. That's the message from Sterling Wilson, Field CTO at Object First, during his conversation at RSAC Conference 2025.Object First is purpose-built for Veeam environments, offering out-of-the-box immutability (OOTBI) with a hardened, on-premises appliance. The goal is simple but critical: make backup security both powerful and practical. With backup credentials often doubling as access credentials for storage infrastructure, organizations expose themselves to unnecessary risk. Object First separates those duties by design, reducing the attack surface and protecting data even when attackers have admin credentials in hand.Immutability as a Foundation—Not a FeatureThe conversation highlights data from a recent ESG study showing that 81% of respondents recognize immutable object storage as the most secure way to protect backup data. True immutability means data cannot be modified or deleted until a set retention period expires—an essential safeguard when facing ransomware or insider threats. But Sterling emphasizes that immutability alone isn't enough. Backup policies, storage access, and data workflows must be segmented and secured.Zero Trust for Backup InfrastructureZero trust principles—verify explicitly, assume breach, enforce least privilege—have gained ground across networks and applications. But few organizations extend those principles into the backup layer. Object First applies zero trust directly to backup infrastructure through what they call zero trust data resilience. That includes verifying credentials at every step and ensuring backup jobs can't alter storage configurations.A Real-World Test: Marysville School DistrictWhen Marysville School District suffered a ransomware attack, nearly every system was compromised—except the Object First appliance. The attacker had administrative credentials, but couldn't access or encrypt the immutable backups. Thanks to the secure design and separation of permissions, recovery was possible—demonstrating that trust in your backups can't be assumed; it must be enforced by design.Meeting Customers Where They AreTo support both partners and end customers, Object First now offers OOTBI through a consumption-based model. Whether organizations are managing remote offices or scaling their environments quickly, the new model provides flexibility without compromising security or simplicity.Learn more about Object First: https://itspm.ag/object-first-2gjlNote: This story contains promotional content. Learn more.Guest: Sterling Wilson, Field CTO, Object First | https://www.linkedin.com/in/sterling-wilson/ResourcesLearn more and catch more stories from Object First: https://www.itspmagazine.com/directory/object-firstLearn more and catch more stories from RSA Conference 2025 coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/rsac25______________________Keywords:sean martin, sterling wilson, ransomware, immutability, backups, cybersecurity, zero trust, data protection, veeam, recovery, brand story, brand marketing, marketing podcast, brand story podcast______________________Catch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-and-cybersecurity-conference-coverageWant to tell your Brand Story Briefing as part of our event coverage? Learn More

Storage often sits in the background of cybersecurity conversations—but not at Infinidat. In this episode, Eric Herzog, Chief Marketing Officer of Infinidat, joins Sean Martin to challenge the notion that storage is simply infrastructure. With decades of experience at IBM and EMC before joining Infinidat, Herzog explains why storage needs to be both operationally efficient and cyber-aware.Cyber Resilience, Not Just StorageAccording to Herzog, today's enterprise buyers—especially those in the Global Fortune 2000—aren't just asking how to store data. They're asking how to protect it when things go wrong. That's why Infinidat integrates automated cyber protection directly into its storage platforms, working with tools like Splunk, Microsoft Sentinel, and IBM QRadar. The goal: remove the silos between infrastructure and cybersecurity teams and eliminate the need for manual intervention during an attack or compromise.Built-In Defense and Blazing-Fast RecoveryThe integration isn't cosmetic. Infinidat offers immutable snapshots, forensic environments, and logical air gaps as part of its storage operating system—no additional hardware or third-party tools required. When a threat is detected, the system can automatically trigger actions and even guarantee data recovery in under one minute for primary storage and under 20 minutes for backups—regardless of the dataset size. And yes, those guarantees are provided in writing.Real-World Scenarios, Real Business OutcomesHerzog shares examples from finance, healthcare, and manufacturing customers—one of which performs immutable snapshots every 15 minutes and scans data twice a week to proactively detect threats. Another customer reduced from 288 all-flash storage floor tiles to just 61 with Infinidat, freeing up 11 storage admins to address other business needs—not to cut staff, but to solve the IT skills shortage in more strategic ways.Simplified Operations, Smarter SecurityThe message is clear: storage can't be an afterthought in enterprise cybersecurity strategies. Infinidat is proving that security features need to be embedded, not bolted on—and that automation, integration, and performance can all coexist. For organizations juggling compliance requirements, sprawling infrastructure, and lean security teams, this approach delivers both peace of mind and measurable business value.Learn more about Infinidat: https://itspm.ag/infini3o5dNote: This story contains promotional content. Learn more.Guest: Eric Herzog, Chief Marketing Officer, Infinidat | https://www.linkedin.com/in/erherzog/ResourcesLearn more and catch more stories from Infinidat: https://www.itspmagazine.com/directory/infinidatLearn more and catch more stories from RSA Conference 2025 coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/rsac25______________________Keywords:sean martin, eric herzog, storage, cybersecurity, automation, resilience, ransomware, recovery, enterprise, soc, brand story, brand marketing, marketing podcast, brand story podcast______________________Catch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-and-cybersecurity-conference-coverageWant to tell your Brand Story Briefing as part of our event coverage? Learn More

The Gene Simmons of Data P rotection: Protegrity's KISS MethodToday, we are kicking off a new series on the podcast, entitled The Gene Simmons of Data Protection - the KISS Method, brought to you by none other than Protegrity. Protegrity is AI-powered data security for data consumption, offering fine grain data protection solutions, so you can enable your data security, compliance, sharing and analytics.Episode Title: KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid): A Data Security Dilemma with James RiceIn this episode, we are talking with James Rice, VP at Protegrity. He is going to help us strip away the nonsense, when it comes to securing data, and help us understand why we don't need a fortress... just a kill switch. While companies throw billions at firewalls, AI driven threat detection, and fortress like defenses - attackers still find their way in. James reminds us to keep it simple, with Protegrity's KISS Method which stands for Keep It Simple Stupid - and how when data is useless to attackers, breaches become mere inconveniences instead of existential threats.Questions:What exactly is the KISS method, and how does it apply to cybersecurity?Why are traditional cybersecurity approaches failing to stop breaches?What are some of the biggest myths about security that lead businesses to waste money on ineffective defenses?How do encryption, tokenization, and de-identification work together to make stolen data useless?Can you share an example where a company's focus on complex security backfired, and how a simpler approach could have helped?What's the biggest pushback you hear from companies hesitant to adopt a simpler, data-first security model? If a company wanted to implement the KISS method tomorrow, what are the first three steps they should take?Linkshttps://www.protegrity.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/jamesrice1/Our Sponsors:* Check out Kinsta: https://kinsta.com* Check out Vanta: https://vanta.com/CODESTORYSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/code-story/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

BONUS: AI and Cybersecurity - An Introduction to The Hidden Threats in Our Connected World with Dr. Eric Cole In this BONUS episode, we explore the evolving landscape of cybersecurity in the age of artificial intelligence. Dr. Eric Cole, a renowned cybersecurity expert and author of Cyber Crisis: Protecting Your Business from Real Threats in the Virtual World, shares critical insights about how AI is transforming security strategies. From the privacy concerns of our always-connected devices to practical tips for protecting your business and personal information, this conversation offers essential knowledge for navigating our increasingly digital world. The Double-Edged Sword of AI in Cybersecurity "We are giving away our IP, our data, and our privacy. The data set is what gives value to AI." The rise of artificial intelligence presents both opportunities and serious risks in the cybersecurity landscape. Dr. Cole emphasizes that while many focus solely on AI's benefits, we often overlook the fact that we're surrendering vast amounts of our sensitive information, intellectual property, and private data to AI providers. This data becomes the foundation of AI's value and capabilities, creating a significant privacy concern that many organizations fail to properly address. As we embrace these new technologies, we must carefully consider what information we're willing to share and what safeguards should be in place. Modern Attack Vectors: The Human Element "Attacks today are mostly social engineering. We end up having to retrain people to not trust their email." Today's cybersecurity threats have evolved beyond traditional technical exploits to focus primarily on social engineering—manipulating people into compromising their own security. Dr. Cole explains that modern attackers increasingly target the human element, requiring organizations to fundamentally retrain employees to approach communications with healthy skepticism. Particularly concerning are mobile threats, as our phones constantly record audio and other personal data. Dr. Cole warns that "free" apps often come with a hidden price: your privacy and security. Understanding these attack vectors is essential for developing effective defense strategies in both personal and professional contexts. Cybersecurity as a Business Enabler "Security is not a barrier, not an obstacle. Cybersecurity is a business enabler." Dr. Cole challenges the common perception that security measures primarily restrict functionality and impede business operations. Instead, he reframes cybersecurity as a critical business enabler that should be integrated into strategic decision-making. Organizations need to make deliberate decisions about the tradeoffs between security and functionality, understanding that proper security measures protect business continuity and reputation. Dr. Cole particularly warns about supply chain attacks, which have become increasingly prevalent, and emphasizes that awareness is the foundation of any effective protection strategy. He recommends centralizing data for easier security management and advises that client devices should minimize storing sensitive data. Mobile Phones: The Ultimate Tracking Device "You don't go anywhere without your cell phone. Your cell phone is never more than a foot from you it's with you wherever you go... which means if somebody wants to track and monitor you they can." We often worry about theoretical tracking technologies while overlooking the sophisticated tracking device we voluntarily carry everywhere—our mobile phones. Dr. Cole points out the irony that people who would never accept being "chipped" for tracking purposes willingly keep their phones within arm's reach at all times. These devices record our locations, conversations, messages, and activities, creating a comprehensive digital trail of our lives. With access to someone's phone, anyone can trace their movements for months and access an alarming amount of personal information. This risk is compounded when we back up this data to cloud services, effectively giving third parties access to our most sensitive information. Understanding these vulnerabilities is the first step toward more mindful mobile security practices. Business Opportunities in the Security Space "We have too much information, too much data. How can we use that data effectively?" The cybersecurity landscape presents significant business opportunities, particularly in making sense of the overwhelming amount of security data organizations collect. Dr. Cole identifies data correlation and effective data utilization as key investment areas. Modern security systems generate vast quantities of logs and alerts, but transforming this raw information into actionable intelligence remains a challenge. Companies that can develop solutions to effectively analyze, correlate, and extract meaningful insights from security data will find substantial opportunities in the market, helping organizations strengthen their security posture while managing the complexity of modern threats. Essential Training for Security-Conscious Developers "Go for secure coding courses. This helps us understand how software can be exploited." For software developers looking to build more secure applications, Dr. Cole recommends focusing on penetration testing skills and secure coding practices. Understanding how software can be exploited from an attacker's perspective provides invaluable insights for designing more robust systems. By learning the methodologies and techniques used by malicious actors, developers can anticipate potential vulnerabilities and incorporate appropriate safeguards from the beginning of the development process. This proactive approach to security helps create applications that are inherently more resistant to attacks rather than requiring extensive security patches and updates after deployment.
