At ThreatLocker Zero Trust World 2025 in Orlando, Art Ocain, VP of Cybersecurity & Incident Response at Airiam, shared valuable insights into applying zero trust principles to incident response. The conversation, hosted by Marco Ciappelli and Sean Martin, highlighted the critical role of zero trust in preparing for and managing security incidents.The Zero Trust Mindset in Incident Response Ocain discussed how zero trust methodology—embracing the principles of "assume breach" and "always verify, never trust"—can significantly enhance incident response strategies. Instead of merely securing the perimeter or endpoints, his approach involves identifying and protecting core systems through micro-segmentation and robust identity management. By securing each component individually, organizations can minimize the impact of potential breaches.For example, Ocain described a scenario where segmenting a SQL server from an application server could prevent data loss during an attack. Even if an application server is compromised, critical data remains secure, allowing quicker recovery and continuity of operations.Dynamic Containment Strategies Ocain emphasized the importance of dynamic containment when responding to incidents. Traditional methods, such as using Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) tools, are effective for forensic analysis but may not stop active threats quickly. Instead, he advocated for an "allow list only" approach that restricts access to systems and data, effectively containing threats while maintaining critical business functions.In practice, when Ocain is called into a crisis, he often implements a deny-by-default solution to isolate compromised systems. This strategy allows him to perform forensics and bring systems back online selectively, ensuring threat actors cannot access recovered systems.Balancing Security with Business Needs A significant challenge in adopting zero trust is gaining executive buy-in. Ocain noted that executive teams often push back against zero trust measures, either out of a desire for convenience or because of misconceptions about its impact on business culture. His approach involves demonstrating real-world scenarios where zero trust could mitigate damage during breaches. By focusing on critical systems and showing the potential consequences of compromised identities or systems, Ocain effectively bridges the gap between security and business priorities.A Cultural Shift Toward Security The discussion also touched on the cultural shift required to fully integrate zero trust into an organization. Zero trust is not just a technological framework but a mindset that influences how every employee views access and security. Through scenario-driven exercises and engaging executive teams early in the process, Ocain helps organizations transition from a "department of no" mentality to a collaborative, security-first culture.Listen to the full episode to explore more strategies on implementing zero trust in incident response and how to align security initiatives with business goals.Guest: Art Ocain, VP of Cybersecurity & Incident Response at Airiam | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/artocain/Hosts:Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine [@ITSPmagazine] and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast [@RedefiningCyber] | On ITSPmagazine: https://www.itspmagazine.com/sean-martinMarco Ciappelli, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine [@ITSPmagazine] and Host of Redefining Society Podcast & Audio Signals Podcast | On ITSPmagazine: https://www.itspmagazine.com/itspmagazine-podcast-radio-hosts/marco-ciappelli____________________________This Episode's SponsorsThreatLocker: https://itspm.ag/threatlocker-r974____________________________ResourcesLearn more and catch more stories from ZTW 2025 coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/zero-trust-world-2025-cybersecurity-and-zero-trust-event-coverage-orlando-floridaRegister for Zero Trust World 2025: https://itspm.ag/threat5mu1____________________________Catch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-and-cybersecurity-conference-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?

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
IT and security teams are under constant pressure to streamline operations while maintaining strong security and compliance. In this Brand Story episode, Chase Doelling, Principal Strategist at JumpCloud, shares insights from the company's latest SME IT Trends Report. The discussion highlights key trends, challenges, and opportunities that IT teams face, particularly in small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs).The Role of IT in Business OperationsDoelling emphasizes the increasing responsibility placed on IT teams. Historically seen as cost centers, IT and security functions are now recognized as critical to business success. More organizations are merging IT and security efforts, ensuring that security considerations are built into every decision rather than being addressed reactively.A major takeaway from the report is the shift toward decentralization in IT decision-making. Departments are increasingly adopting tools independently, leading to an explosion of software-as-a-service (SaaS) applications. While this autonomy can boost efficiency, it also creates risks. Shadow IT—where employees use unauthorized tools—has become a top concern, with 88% of organizations identifying it as a risk.AI, Security, and IT InvestmentThe report also reveals a growing divide in AI adoption. Organizations are either moving aggressively into AI initiatives or staying completely on the sidelines. Those embracing AI often integrate it into security and IT operations, balancing innovation with risk management.Budget trends indicate that IT spending is rising, with security tools accounting for a significant portion. The need for robust cybersecurity measures has pushed organizations to prioritize visibility, access management, and compliance. A notable shift is occurring in remote and hybrid work models. While remote work surged in previous years, only 9% of organizations now report being fully remote. This return to office environments introduces new IT challenges, particularly in managing networks and devices across hybrid workplaces.How JumpCloud Supports IT TeamsJumpCloud's platform simplifies IT and security operations by unifying identity and access management, device management, and security policies. One key challenge IT teams face is visibility—knowing who has access to what systems and ensuring compliance with security policies. JumpCloud's approach allows organizations to manage users and devices from a single platform, reducing complexity and improving security posture.An example of JumpCloud's impact is its ability to detect and manage SaaS usage. If an employee tries to use an unauthorized tool, JumpCloud can guide them toward an approved alternative, preventing security risks without stifling productivity. This balance between security and efficiency is essential, particularly for SMBs that lack dedicated security teams.Looking Ahead: IT and Security ConvergenceDoelling teases upcoming research that will explore the relationship between IT and security teams. With these functions blending more than ever, organizations need insights into how to align strategies, resources, and budgets effectively.For IT and security professionals navigating a landscape of increased threats, shifting work environments, and AI-driven innovation, the insights from JumpCloud's research provide a valuable benchmark. To gain a deeper understanding of these trends and their implications, listen to the full episode and explore the latest SME IT Trends Report.Note: This story contains promotional content.

Dave Sobel engages in a thought-provoking conversation with Jon Murchison, CEO of BlackPoint Cyber, about the current state of cybersecurity policies and practices. They discuss the initiatives surrounding "secure by design" and "secure by default," emphasizing the challenges faced by managed IT service providers in implementing these ideals. Jon expresses skepticism about the immediate impact of these policies on the ground level, noting that while they are well-intentioned, they often fall short of practical application in real-world scenarios.The discussion shifts to the dynamics of responsibility and liability within the cybersecurity landscape. Jon highlights the disparity between software vendors and service providers regarding accountability when security breaches occur. He argues that while security providers should be held liable for secure code design and regular penetration testing, the complexities of cybersecurity make it difficult to assign blame definitively. This nuanced perspective underscores the need for a balanced approach to liability that encourages innovation without stifling progress.As the conversation progresses, Jon shares his insights on the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) and its potential as a broader standard. He acknowledges the foundational value of existing frameworks like NIST and ISO but critiques their lack of practical guidance for organizations. Jon advocates for a more prescriptive approach that focuses on actionable steps for hardening security measures, rather than vague compliance requirements that can lead to checkbox exercises.Finally, Jon emphasizes the critical importance of identity management in cybersecurity. He explains how threat actors have evolved their tactics, often exploiting legitimate credentials to navigate networks undetected. The episode concludes with Jon discussing the future of posture management and the need for improved security measures around automation, highlighting the ongoing challenges and opportunities in the ever-evolving cybersecurity landscape.

Ahmad emphasized that while RBAC has served as the backbone of organizational security for decades, its centralized nature and limitations in cross-domain applications necessitate the shift to ABAC. He also highlighted a critical aspect of his research: leveraging cryptographic primitives like attribute-based group signatures to enhance security and privacy while enabling decentralization without relying on blockchain.Sean and Ahmad explored the technical and operational implications of ABAC. Ahmad described how this model uses user attributes—such as location, role, and organizational details—to determine access permissions dynamically. This contrasts with RBAC's reliance on predefined roles, which can lead to rule exploitation and administrative inefficiencies.Ahmad also discussed practical applications, including secure digital health systems, enterprise environments, and even e-voting platforms. One innovative feature of his approach is "attribute anonymity," which ensures sensitive information remains private, even in peer-to-peer or decentralized setups. For example, he described how his system could validate an individual's age for accessing a service without revealing personal data—a critical step toward minimizing data exposure.The conversation expanded into challenges organizations face in adopting ABAC, particularly the cost and complexity of transitioning from entrenched RBAC systems. Ahmad stressed the importance of education and collaboration with governments and industry players to operationalize ABAC and other decentralized models.The episode closed with Ahmad reflecting on the robust feedback and collaboration opportunities he encountered at the conference, underscoring the growing interest in decentralized and privacy-preserving solutions within the cybersecurity industry. Ahmad's research has attracted attention globally, with plans to further develop and implement these models in Australia and beyond.Listeners are encouraged to follow Ahmad's work and connect via LinkedIn to stay informed about these transformative approaches to 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

One of the scariest things in healthcare right now is having your organization breached. While systems are sometimes breached through more traditional approaches to hacking, the most common breaches today generally occur when hackers steal someone's credentials. In fact, many hackers are using social engineering attacks on IT help desks to breach healthcare systems. This is why identity management in healthcare is so important. All those expensive IT security systems don't help you much when the hackers take control of your users legitimate credentials. This was the topic I explored recently with Tracey Nyholt, Founder & CEO at TechJutsu, at the Oktane conference by Okta in Las Vegas. In our discussion, Nyholt shares about her company TechJutsu and some of the challenges of identity management in healthcare and the solutions available for healthcare organizations.

Federal Tech Podcast: Listen and learn how successful companies get federal contracts
Growth always brings challenges. In today's episode, we talk about how the DoD can manage the challenge of development in several aspects of identity management. Like most federal agencies, the DoD has made a move to the hybrid cloud; this alone adds to the complexity of the identification process. However, in addition to the 1.3 million active-duty service members, they must contend with reserves, DoD civilians, veterans, and many more. Oh, did we mention mobile? The official designation of the process of validating identity is called Identity Credentialing and Access Management, or ICAM. During this interview, experts from Akamai suggest: >> Consider applying AI/ML to help analyze identity data. >>> Fast Identity Online (FIDO) FIDO standards exist, and one can consider applying FIDO to simplify identity. Akamai has worked with both Defense and Civilian agencies to enable technologies like CAC/PIV and YUBIkey. Further, their well-known enterprise access management gives them the ability to protect web applications as well as mobile devices. Many organizations are tasked with managing millions of individuals. Very few are associated with capabilities that can have as serious consequences as the DoD.
SAP has announced the end of life for its identity management (IDM) system, which is a key component in many traditional SAP environments. This poses a challenge for organizations running on-premises SAP systems. To plan for a smooth transition, organizations should consider key strategies such as taking the time for thorough planning, thinking about the future of their IAM, and analyzing requirements before choosing a new solution. The cost of implementation projects can be significant, but investing in proper preparation and tools upfront can save time and money in the long run. It is important to take a holistic view and consider the broader picture, including GRC and access governance solutions. Finding the right solution requires support from experts who understand the market and the organization's specific requirements.

draft When the federal government makes a strategic decision to implement Zero Trust principles, they must consider both user identity and the data users are trying to access. Today, we have leaders in the federal and commercial sectors look at both data and identity and emphasize the need for centralized coordination, automated labeling, and real-time access control through Identity Management. Brian Rosensteel from Ping Identity argues that some kind of “federated” identity management system is the most effective for federal identification. Each agency really cannot be responsible for responding in a timely manner given the details that Zero Trust demands. Access controls have been around since the start of networks. During the discussion, participants gave opinions on the value of both access based and role-based access controls. They also suggested that “context” based access controls may provide additional abilities for systems administrators to improve real-time access controls.

Guest: Theodore Heiman, CEO, CISO GuruOn LinkedIn | https://www.linkedin.com/in/tedheimanOn Twitter | https://x.com/tedrheiman____________________________Host: Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine [@ITSPmagazine] and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast [@RedefiningCyber]On ITSPmagazine | https://www.itspmagazine.com/sean-martinView This Show's Sponsors___________________________Episode NotesIn this episode of the Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast, host Sean Martin engages with Ted Heiman, CEO of the cybersecurity practice CISO Guru, in an insightful conversation about the complexities and evolving landscape of password management and multi-factor authentication (MFA). Sean Martin introduces the session by highlighting the challenges practitioners and leaders face in building security programs that enable organizations to achieve their objectives securely.The discussion quickly steers towards the main topic - the evolution of passwords, the role of password managers, and the critical implementation of MFA. Ted Heiman shares his extensive experience from over 25 years in the cybersecurity industry, observing that passwords are a relic from a time when networks were isolated and less complex. As organizations have grown and interconnected, the weaknesses of static passwords have become more apparent. Heiman notes a striking statistic: 75 to 80 percent of breaches occur due to compromised static passwords.The conversation examines the history of passwords, starting as simple, memorable phrases and evolving into complex strings with mandatory special characters, numbers, and capitalization. This complexity, while intended to increase security, often leads users to write down passwords or repeat them across multiple platforms, introducing significant security risks. Solutions like password managers arose to mitigate these issues, but as Heiman highlights, they tend to centralize risk, making a single point of failure an attractive target for attackers.The discussion shifts to MFA, which Heiman regards as a substantial improvement over static passwords. He illustrates the concept by comparing it to ATM use, which combines something you have (a bank card) and something you know (a PIN). Applying this to cybersecurity, MFA typically involves an additional step, such as an SMS code or biometric verification, significantly reducing the possibility of unauthorized access.Looking forward, both Heiman and Martin consider the promise of passwordless systems and continuous authentication. These technologies utilize a combination of biometrics and behavioral analysis to constantly verify user identity without the need for repetitive password entries. This approach aligns with the principles of zero-trust architecture, which assumes that no entity, inside or outside the organization, can be inherently trusted. Heiman stresses that transitioning to these advanced authentication methods should be a priority for organizations seeking to enhance their security posture. However, he acknowledges the challenges, especially concerning legacy systems and human behaviors, emphasizing the importance of a phased and managed risk approach.For listeners involved in cybersecurity, Heiman's insights provide valuable guidance on navigating the intricate dynamics of password management and embracing more secure, advanced authentication mechanisms.___________________________Watch this and other videos on ITSPmagazine's YouTube ChannelRedefining CyberSecurity Podcast with Sean Martin, CISSP playlist:

Several recent trends underscore the increasing importance of Know Your Business (KYB) practices in today's business landscape. One significant trend is the rise in financial crimes, including money laundering, fraud, and terrorist financing. Technological advancements have transformed the way businesses operate, leading to increased digitization, online transactions, and remote customer interactions. While these developments offer numerous benefits, they also create opportunities for criminals to exploit vulnerabilities. Higher value remote transactions are performed at higher volumes. In addition, government programs such as the PPP program created a need for onboarding business quickly. This created a influx of fraudulent entities and claim who are now exploiting other channels. The convergence of these trends highlights the critical role of KYB in safeguarding businesses, ensuring regulatory compliance, and fostering trust among stakeholders in today's dynamic and interconnected business environment.
