Applying psychological principles to educating end users about cybersecurity is nothing new; security awareness teams have long relied on behavioral science to influence best practices. But “cyberpsychology” as a unique discipline is having a moment, and its implications go far beyond Cybersecurity Awareness Month. Join us for this episode of Wait Just an Infosec. SANS's Rich Greene moderate's a discussion with Juliet Okafor, JD, and Stacy Thayer, PhD, MBA, and answer questions like:· What is cyberpsychology?· How can it make security teams better at everything from monitoring SIEM logs to conducting large-scale incident response?· How can you leverage the knowledge of this emerging field?After, you'll get to hear from Black Girls Hack Founder Tennisha Martin and COO Rebekah Skeete on tips to prevent phishing - brought to you by #ShareTheMicInCyber Wait Just an Infosec is produced by the SANS Institute.

Today, we talk to Juliet about what's wrong with security programs today and what security leaders should be doing to fix them. We'll discuss how security programs can look rosy... until the incident hits, and the true posture of the organization is laid bare. How can CISOs still look good and maintain the org's trust under the worst of circumstances? In this interview, Jules will tell us how. Zero Trust is an imperfect concept and is often impractical to deploy comprehensively at scale, but that doesn't mean it can't do any good. In this interview, we talk with practitioner Ryan Fried about his experiences implementing Zero Trust in real life. We'll also discuss his new role at Mandiant, and why the glue that holds together people, process, and tools is so important. Finally, in the enterprise security news, Secure Code Warrior raises $50M to continue educating developers on best security practices, Jamf acquires dataJAR, IronNet's public run ends soon, Microsoft puts pressure on other cybersecurity stocks, We discuss the Microsoft Storm breach, How to make engineers not hate you, Securely build features using AI APIs WormGPT, National Cybersecurity Strategy Implementation Plan, Cybersecurity labels Google plans to scrape everything you post for AI, & the Year of the Linux Desktop!

Check out this interview from the ESW Vault, hand picked by main host Adrian Sanabria! This segment was originally published on September 29, 2021. No Man is an Island. Neither can a security program exist without interconnections and strong relationships to the rest of the business. Yet, over and over again I meet Security Leaders that thrive on designing security fiefdoms with large moats, and one bridge that they roll down only when they intend to roll out a new technology, initiative or need budget authority. There is no amount of authority or power that can provided to a CISO that makes he or she immunized against the need for communication, collaboration and diplomacy with peers, users and Senior Executives.

Security technology roll-outs often fail because of the following: 1) Weak Security Culture - users don't see value or understand the importance of taking action. 2) Security teams often fail to consider user experience in purchase, configuration, set-up and training of security technology, like endpoint security 3) End User communication about new technology is not communicated to the right users, at the right time, during the right stage of the project.

This episode of the C3 podcast special guest Juliet Okafor stops by and we talk about how cybersecurity professionals can better work with the business, the b.s behind the Bootcamp race in Cybersecurity, and much more. Meet Juliet: Juliet Okafor, J.D., is a cybersecurity professional who has combined her knowledge of the legal system and cybersecurity solution models into success stories across fortune 500 industries throughout the USA. Her ability to scope, plan and design the creation of an OT Cybersecurity Management System framework for one of the largest cruise lines in the world is a testament to her commitment and leadership regardless of the challenge. She is a passionate security solution visionary and strategist who builds the Fortune 500 enterprise’s overarching security strategy that governs all other smaller strategies within. She is the person who determines how to solve the company’s problem, be it vulnerability management, incident response, or reducing the risk associated with technology or vendors, and then puts a plan into action or roadmap to remediate the risks in place – using a combination of people, transforming operations and an array of emerging security technology. Juliet’s collaboration with key infrastructure cybersecurity leaders from the energy, manufacturing, maritime, transportation, and chemical sectors have led to realistic and integrated IT/OT cybersecurity programs with positive security results. The unique value of Juliet’s ability within the cybersecurity field is also evident in her relentless and dynamic approach to understanding the expectations, needs, and requirements of her clients in concert with providing the best cybersecurity technologies and services required. Okafor has also helped build startup security organizations from the ground up, negotiating contracts, forging partnerships, selecting tools, leading strategic initiatives, and partnering with key customers and security stakeholders to create, identify, measure, and report the maturity of their enterprise security programs to senior leadership to justify the additional financial investment or demonstrate continuous improvement. Juliet graduated from UMass-Amherst with a B.A. in Communication, Fordham University with an M.A. in Public Communication and Media Studies and received her Juris Doctorate from Temple University – Beasley School of Law. She is currently the CEO of RevolutionCyber.
In December 2020, the company FireEye noticed that it had been the victim of a cyber intrusion. And it wasn’t the only one. About 18,000 companies and government agencies were breached, everything from the agency that controls America's nuclear weapons to the agency that regulates the electric grid, to a company whose products you probably use every day: Microsoft. So, what did they have in common? They were all using the same software monitoring service: a platform called Orion, from the company SolarWinds. The breach leaves the US open to nightmare scenario after nightmare scenario. So how did we get here, and how can we prevent similar attacks in the future? GUESTS: Mieke Eoyang, Senior Vice President for the National Security Program and Chairperson of the Cyber Enforcement Initiative, Third Way; Juliet Okafor, Founder and CEO, Revolution Cyber ADDITIONAL READING: Cybercrime vs. Cyberwar: Paradigms for Addressing Malicious Cyber Activity, Journal of National Security Law and Policy.
