At ThreatLocker Zero Trust World 2025 in Orlando, Chase Cunningham, often referred to as “Dr. Zero Trust,” delivered a thought-provoking session titled The Grand Delusion. The event, filled with IT professionals, managed service providers (MSPs), and small to midsize business (SMB) leaders, provided the perfect backdrop for a candid discussion about the state of cybersecurity and the real-world application of Zero Trust strategies.Challenging the Status QuoCunningham emphasized the need for businesses to adopt realistic cybersecurity practices that align with their resources and needs. He pointed out the pitfalls of smaller organizations attempting to emulate enterprise-level security strategies without the necessary infrastructure. “Cyber shouldn't be any different” than outsourcing taxes or other specialized tasks, he explained, advocating for MSPs and external services as practical solutions.Zero Trust as a Strategy, Not Just a TermThe session underscored that Zero Trust is not merely a buzzword but a strategic approach to security. Cunningham stressed the importance of questioning the validity of industry claims and seeking concrete data to support cybersecurity initiatives. He encouraged attendees to avoid being “delusional” by blindly accepting security solutions without a critical evaluation of their impact and effectiveness.Actionable Steps for Small BusinessesCunningham shared practical advice for implementing Zero Trust principles within smaller organizations. He recommended focusing on foundational controls like identity and access management, micro-segmentation, and application allow and block lists. He noted that achieving security is a journey, requiring a structured, strategic approach and an acceptance that immediate results are unlikely.The Future of Zero TrustLooking ahead, Cunningham expressed optimism about the continued evolution of Zero Trust. He highlighted its growing global significance, with his upcoming engagements in Taiwan, Colombia, and Europe serving as evidence of its widespread adoption. Ultimately, he framed Zero Trust as not only a business imperative but a fundamental human right in today's digital world.Tune in to this episode to hear more insights from Chase Cunningham and explore what Zero Trust means for businesses of all sizes.Guest

Marco draws parallels to characters like “The Avengers” and “Deadpool,” describing them as defenders of our digital world. Ravi builds on this playful yet thought-provoking metaphor, likening the fight against cybercriminals to epic battles against villains, highlighting the high stakes of cybersecurity in critical systems.The Cyber Zoo: Ravi Nayyar's Research FocusRavi introduces his research, focusing on the regulation of cyber resilience within critical infrastructure, particularly the software supply chain. Using the metaphor of a “zoo,” he paints a vivid picture of the cybersecurity ecosystem, where diverse stakeholders—government bodies, infrastructure operators, and software vendors—must coexist and collaborate. His work delves into how companies can be held accountable for their cyber practices, aiming to secure national and global systems.The Role of Humans in CybersecurityAt the heart of cybersecurity, Ravi emphasizes, is the human element. His research highlights the need for incentivizing all players—critical infrastructure operators, software developers, and even end users—to embed secure practices into their operations. It's not just about rules and frameworks but about fostering a culture of responsibility and collaboration in an interconnected world.The Case for Stronger Cyber LawsRavi critiques the historically relaxed approach to regulating software security, particularly for critical systems, and advocates for stronger, standardized laws. He compares cybersecurity frameworks to those used for medical devices, which are rigorously regulated for public safety. By adopting similar models, critical software could be held to higher standards, reducing risks to national security.Global Cooperation and the Fight Against Regulatory ArbitrageThe discussion shifts to the need for international collaboration in cybersecurity. Ravi underscores the risk of regulatory arbitrage, where companies exploit weaker laws in certain regions to save costs. He proposes global coalitions and standardization bodies as potential solutions to ensure consistent and robust security practices worldwide.Incentivizing Secure PracticesDelving into the practical side of regulation, Ravi discusses ways to incentivize companies to adopt secure practices. From procurement policies favoring vendors with strong cybersecurity commitments to the potential for class action lawsuits, the conversation explores the multifaceted strategies needed to hold organizations accountable and foster a safer digital ecosystem.Closing Thoughts: Collaboration for a Safer Digital WorldSean, Marco, and Ravi wrap up the episode by emphasizing the critical need for cross-sector collaboration—between academia, industry, media, and government—to tackle the evolving challenges of cybersecurity. By raising public awareness and encouraging proactive measures, they highlight the importance of a unified effort to secure our digital infrastructure.____________________________This Episode's SponsorsThreatlocker: https://itspm.ag/threatlocker-r974____________________________ResourcesThe theory of saving the world: Intervention requests and critical infrastructure: https://melbourne2024.cyberconference.com.au/sessions/session-eI6eYNriflLearn more and catch more stories from Australian Cyber Conference 2024 coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/australian-cyber-conference-melbourne-2024-cybersecurity-event-coverage-in-australiaBe sure to share and subscribe!____________________________Catch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-cybersecurity-society-humanity-conference-and-event-coverageTo see and hear more Redefining CyberSecurity content on ITSPmagazine, visit: https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-cybersecurity-podcastTo see and hear more Redefining Society stories on ITSPmagazine, visit:https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-society-podcastWant to tell your Brand Story Briefing as part of our event coverage?Learn More

With Benji and Bec calling Melbourne home, the guests reflect on the value of attending such a prominent event in their backyard while drawing on their experiences as hosts of their own cybersecurity podcast.Unmasking Phishing in the Digital AgePhishing takes center stage as Benji and Bec share stories and insights about the dangers lurking behind cleverly crafted scams. Sean Martin draws a clever comparison between traditional fishing methods and the digital phishing tactics cybercriminals use today—hooking victims by exploiting their trust and curiosity.Benji drives the conversation deeper, explaining how a person's digital footprint—especially in an age of AI-driven tools like deepfakes—can be weaponized for deception. The guests underscore the importance of remaining vigilant and minimizing the personal information we leave online, turning our digital habits into our best line of defense.Cybersecurity Education: The First Line of DefenseShifting gears, the group emphasizes the need to move beyond relying solely on tech-driven safeguards and focus on building a culture of cybersecurity awareness within organizations. Bec Caldwell shares actionable strategies, likening cybersecurity education to learning how to drive—starting small and gradually building confidence in spotting risks. Empowering employees to question suspicious contexts fosters not just better security, but a collaborative culture of accountability.AI: Friend or Foe?The role of AI emerges as a hot topic, sparking a discussion about its dual impact on cybersecurity. While AI enables sophisticated phishing attacks, it also holds the potential to strengthen defenses. The panel imagines AI tools evolving to provide real-time security nudges, similar to how cars alert drivers to potential hazards. It's a balancing act, as AI must be wielded thoughtfully to enhance—not replace—human vigilance.The Human Factor in CybersecurityThroughout the conversation, one message resonates: the enduring power of human intuition. Benji recounts a gripping story of a CEO who thwarted a highly advanced phishing attempt with a simple, old-school phone verification. This moment reinforces the idea that while tech can improve security measures, the human touch remains irreplaceable.Future-Proofing CybersecurityAs the episode winds down, the group reflects on thought-provoking audience questions from the conference. From AI's impact on CISO responsibilities to how generational shifts in digital communication shape cybersecurity strategies, the guests underscore the need for adaptability as both technology and society evolve.A Final Call to ActionMarco Ciappelli and Sean Martin wrap up with a clear takeaway for their listeners: stay curious, ask questions, and embrace skepticism online. The key to navigating today's cyber landscape is a mix of awareness, education, and the occasional gut check—because even in a tech-driven world, the human element is our greatest asset.____________________________This Episode's SponsorsThreatlocker: https://itspm.ag/threatlocker-r974____________________________ResourcesBytes with Bec and Benji podcast: https://www.phriendlyphishing.com/resources/podcastsLearn more and catch more stories from Australian Cyber Conference 2024 coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/australian-cyber-conference-melbourne-2024-cybersecurity-event-coverage-in-australiaBe sure to share and subscribe!____________________________Catch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-cybersecurity-society-humanity-conference-and-event-coverageTo see and hear more Redefining CyberSecurity content on ITSPmagazine, visit: https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-cybersecurity-podcastTo see and hear more Redefining Society stories on ITSPmagazine, visit:https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-society-podcastWant to tell your Brand Story Briefing as part of our event coverage?Learn More

Their conversation explored the intersection of technology, education, and human connection in the pursuit of a safer and more secure society.Dr. Ngo shared her perspective on resilience, highlighting its evolving definition. While digital tools increase opportunities for connection, she emphasized that face-to-face interaction remains vital, especially for vulnerable communities. Her work in promoting cybersecurity awareness involves building trust and understanding among diverse groups, tailoring approaches to their unique needs and cultural contexts.The discussion turned to the importance of culture in cybersecurity, with Dr. Ngo describing it as a gradual process of change driven by action and integration into everyday life. She stressed that cyber awareness—often focused on knowledge—must evolve into behavioral transformation, where secure practices become second nature both at work and in personal lives. This requires understanding the subcultures within organizations and communities and adapting strategies to resonate with their specific dynamics.Sean also brought up the concept of belief as a cornerstone for driving cultural change. Dr. Ngo agreed, emphasizing that confidence and a growth mindset are essential in fostering resilience. Drawing on her experience as a mentor and educator, she described how instilling belief in individuals' capacity to contribute to a secure society empowers them to take ownership of their role in cybersecurity.The conversation explored practical ways to bridge the gap between technical solutions and human-centered approaches. Dr. Ngo highlighted her work with the Australian government's "Stay Safe, Act Now" campaign, which focuses on localizing cybersecurity education. By adapting materials to the values and practices of various communities—such as the South Sudanese and Cambodian populations—her initiatives create relatable and impactful messaging that goes beyond surface-level translations.Education and workforce development also emerged as key themes. Dr. Ngo underscored the importance of short, targeted training programs, like micro-credentials, in addressing the growing skills gap in cybersecurity. Such programs offer accessible pathways for individuals from all backgrounds to contribute meaningfully to the industry, supporting Australia's ambition to be the most cyber-resilient country by 2030.Closing the discussion, Dr. Ngo reinforced that cybersecurity is fundamentally about people. By fostering empathy, understanding, and a collaborative spirit, society can build resilience not just through technology but through the collective effort of individuals who care deeply about protecting one another. This belief in human potential left an enduring impression, inspiring attendees to think beyond traditional approaches and embrace the human element at the core of cybersecurity.____________________________This Episode's SponsorsThreatlocker: https://itspm.ag/threatlocker-r974____________________________ResourcesLearn more and catch more stories from Australian Cyber Conference 2024 coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/australian-cyber-conference-melbourne-2024-cybersecurity-event-coverage-in-australiaBe sure to share and subscribe!____________________________Catch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-cybersecurity-society-humanity-conference-and-event-coverageTo see and hear more Redefining CyberSecurity content on ITSPmagazine, visit: https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-cybersecurity-podcastTo see and hear more Redefining Society stories on ITSPmagazine, visit:https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-society-podcastWant to tell your Brand Story Briefing as part of our event coverage?Learn More

Sometimes organizations know they need to do something to improve their cybersecurity posture … or, in some cases, something more, something different. They know there is a disconnect between cybersecurity and the business — they just don't know how to get started or transition to get the best results, given their unique environments and operating processes. What's truly innovative about RockCyber's cybersecurity assessments is how they intertwine cybersecurity strategies directly with business alignment and outcomes. This is not just about securing IT assets; it's about shaping cybersecurity as a strategic advantage that supports overall business goals. The service is tailored for organizations that need a cybersecurity approach that is not only robust but also aligned with their business objectives, enhancing both security and business performance.This approach solves the key problem of the disconnect between cybersecurity practices and business objectives, which many companies struggle with. The RockCyber vCISO and cybersecurity assessment services are particularly valuable for organizations where security must be a driver of cyber resiliency and growth, not just a protective measure.Let's talk about how this changes the future for our customers. Traditionally, cybersecurity has often been a siloed IT function, reactive and disconnected from core business functions. RockCyber's assessments transform this by integrating cybersecurity with business strategy, making it a cornerstone of business planning and execution.Imagine a before scenario where a company's cybersecurity efforts are technically adequate but not aligned with the strategic business initiatives, leading to inefficiencies and missed opportunities. After a RockCyber assessment, this company strengthens its security and aligns its cybersecurity strategy with business objectives, ensuring that every security investment directly supports business growth and resilience.With the assessment in place, RockCyber clients typically lean in on the virtual CISO services where the RockCyber team can take the knowledge we have in the field — both figuratively and literally — to establish a strategy that will begin the process of maturity and lead the organization down a path of cyber sustainability.For example, with one recent oil and gas client, the cybersecurity program the RockCyber created not only reduces cyber risk and improves the ability of the organization to handle and manage a potential cyber incident, but it aligns directly with the organization's key objectives:Maintain operating reliabilityDrive positive impact on revenue and profitEnsure digital and physical safetyTo achieve this, the team at RockCyber kept the big business picture in mind while focusing on breaking down the problem into smaller projects that be accomplished successfully, building on the past to continue to improve the future.The RockCyber cybersecurity assessment and vCISO services provide the following benefits:Establish a business-aligned strategic vision while bringing the skills, experience, and technology needed to execute tactically.Helping the organization to identify key challenges in security operations, staffing, training, execution, and communication and to help them overcome these challenges with confidence, giving them peace of mind to know we are there by their side every step of the way.Rock invites you all to connect with him via LinkedIn where you can find some of his musings on this topic and so many more.

Chirp system's smart locks are compromised With hard coded credentials, potentially unlocking 50, 000 U. S. homes remotely, warns the U. S. Cybersecurity Infrastructure Security Agency, highlighting severe oversight in digital security protocols. What can be done to secure these smart locks and prevent unauthorized remote access? Delinea acted swiftly to patch a critical vulnerability in their secret server SOAP API, which could have allowed attackers to gain administrative access and seize sensitive data. And finally, ransomware victims in the US shelled out 1. 5 billion between May 2022 and June of 2023 amidst heated debates over the effectiveness of ransomware payment bans, as highlighted by the Institute for Security and Technology. What strategies are cybersecurity experts recommending to reduce ransom payments without implementing a ban? In a recent warning issued by the U. S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, or CISA, an estimated 50, 000 smart locks across the country are vulnerable to breaches due to hard coded credentials that allow remote access. These locks, developed by Chirp Systems, have been criticized for storing sensitive access information within their source code, making them susceptible to unauthorized entries with a CVSS severity rating of 9. 1 out of 10. Despite these concerns, Chirp Systems has yet to respond or collaborate with CISA to address these vulnerabilities. The issue first came to light when Matt Brown, a senior systems development engineer at Amazon Web Services, detected the flaw. Brown, while installing the Chirp app to his Access His Apartment, opted to scrutinize the app's security. He discovered that the app stored passwords and private keystrings in a decodable format, leaving residence doors wide open to potential hackers. In response to his findings, Brown approached his leasing office, which provided him with a 50 NFC key fob as a workaround. However, Brown pointed out that the FOB still transmitted the credentials in plain text, vulnerable to cloning via NFC enabled devices. The parent company of Chirp Systems, RealPage, Inc., is currently facing legal challenges including a massive lawsuit supported by the U. S. Department of Justice and multiple state attorneys general. The suits accuse RealPage of using its software to artificially inflate rents through collusion with landlords, employing algorithms that limit negotiation and push maximum possible rents on tenants. In a swift response to a security breach, Delinea, a leading provider of privileged access management solutions, recently addressed a critical vulnerability in their secret server SOAP API. The company first became aware of the issue late last week and took immediate action by blocking SOAP endpoints for its cloud customers. This precaution was necessary to mitigate any potential unauthorized access. while the cloud service was patched on the same day. By Saturday, Delenia confirmed their awareness of the vulnerability and assured that their engineering and security teams had conducted thorough investigations, revealing no evidence of compromised customer data or attempts to exploit the flaw. By Sunday, the company had released an update for Secret Server on premises, version 11. 7. 000001. Effectively fixing the vulnerability and announcing forthcoming patches for earlier versions upon completion of testing. Moreover, Delinea has provided a guide for customers using on premise versions to help determine if their systems were compromised. This includes instructions to generate custom reports to trace potentially unauthorized access, particularly from unfamiliar IP addresses which could indicate malicious activity. Kevin Beaumont, a security researcher, noted that the temporary unavailability of Delinia's secret server cloud last Friday stemmed from a published blog post by security engineer Johnny Yu, who discovered the vulnerability. Yu's post, which included a proof of concept for creating a golden token allowing admin access, was crucial in prompting the company's rapid response. Delinia has also established a continuous monitoring process updates on their service status to ensure ongoing security for their users. They urge all users to review any unusual audit records and verify the authenticity of the secret server mobile application access as part of their comprehensive security measures. In a report issued this past Wednesday, the Institute for Security and Technology's Ransomware Task Force has decided against the need for a ransomware payment ban. The report highlights several reasons, including concerns that a ban might discourage victims from reporting ransom payments, potentially pushing these transactions underground, and the complexity of any Exempting critical infrastructure. Instead of implementing a ban, the task force recommends focusing on 16 milestones they believe will effectively reduce ransom payments. And there's a quote from the RTF co chairs from an email that says, while a ban may be an easier policy lift than activities designing to drive preparedness, it will almost certainly create the wrong kind of impact. They noted a decline in organizations making payments, suggesting that current strategies may already be making an impact. Despite the resistance to a payment ban, the task force revealed that more than half of their proposed measures are already in progress or completed. These include significant policy changes like the requirement for publicly traded companies to report substantial cyber incidents, and the upcoming rule from CISA mandating that US critical infrastructure entities quickly report cyber attacks and ransom payments. The discussion on how best to tackle ransomware continues to evolve. While the Biden administration previously steered clear of a complete ban on ransomware payments, there are renewed calls for reconsidering this policy. Brett Callow, a threat analyst at Emsisoft, is an outspoken supporter of a ban, suggesting that even if attackers may not be aware of state level bans, a national policy might have a significant deterrent effect. The Ransomware Task Force, by figures like Kemba Walden, the former acting National Cyber Director, advocates for bolstering existing efforts rather than imposing new bans, indicating a strategic commitment to enhance cybersecurity resilience amidst ongoing debates. That's all I got for you today. Thanks for tuning in to this quick, news focused episode. Be sure to tune in later this week for a discussion on HackspaceCon, which just took place last weekend in Florida at Kennedy Space Center. Still working on editing that episode, but dogespan and I discussed our key takeaways and we wanted to share them with you. So stick around for that.
