It is Data Privacy Week here in the U.S., through January 31st. This is an annual effort to promote data privacy awareness and education. Its events are sponsored by the National Cybersecurity Alliance. This week's theme is Take Control of Your Data. [3:23] Here to discuss how to take control of your data, and the best practices that risk professionals and business leaders need to know, is Chief Privacy Officer of CISA, James Burd. [3:36] James is the senior agency leader responsible for managing and overseeing CISA's privacy, external civil rights, civil liberties, and transparency programs. [3:46] We're going to talk about some of the big events that made headlines in late December and early January around cybersecurity and data privacy and the frameworks and strategies that risk professionals can implement to take control of their data. [4:02] CISA Chief Privacy Officer James Burd, welcome to RIMScast! [4:18] James has a fantastic team of privacy, transparency, and access professionals who provide transparency to the American public while integrating full privacy rights, liberties, and protections into the management of a safe, secure, and resilient infrastructure. [4:48] As Chief Privacy Officer, James Burd's primary responsibility is to ensure that privacy is at the forefront and integrated into every initiative, program, and policy CISA undertakes, regardless of whether it's by policy, process, or technical solutions. [5:00] This includes ensuring compliance with Federal privacy laws and embedding privacy considerations in the agency's operations and partnerships. [5:08] Protecting critical infrastructure inherently involves safeguarding sensitive and critical information that any organization holds, whether it's CISA or any of the many stakeholders of CISA. Privacy and cybersecurity are inherently interconnected. [5:21] CISA ensures its cybersecurity programs focus on protecting systems, networks, and data from unauthorized access while the privacy portion ensures that personal and sensitive data are handled responsibly, ethically, and securely. [5:39] What are the keys to a strong cybersecurity strategy? [5:52] The work CISA does in the privacy world is to ensure that the information CISA is holding is secure and safeguarded and also to tell the public how exactly they do that. [6:14] In the early days of CISA, it was a Computer Emergency Readiness Team (CERT). CERTs respond to major cybersecurity incidents at a state, local, national, or international level. A cybersecurity incident in the U.S. is similar to a cybersecurity incident in any nation. [6:50] All nations are facing the same cybersecurity issues. CISA's international work is about information sharing and helping each other understand what threats we all face. [7:19] Integrating privacy into risk management frameworks is a core consideration. A lot of the privacy work CISA does with risk managers is for ERM, identifying privacy risks and impacts and ensuring that mitigation strategies align with goals. [7:42] Risk managers are key partners in implementing strong data governance practices. CISA works with them to establish policies for data handling, access, and usage that align with the security needs and privacy protection of an agency or organization. [7:56] Risk managers have the opportunity to help privacy officers identify a privacy problem or privacy risk all across the organization. That's part of the risk manager's job as a point person. [9:13] CISA wants to do this privacy protection work with organizations before a breach. Many privacy professionals have learned the hard way that if you don't collaborate up front, you have to collaborate later, as a result of your emergency. That's not a great day. [9:29] Risk professionals have different viewpoints to consider. They may see that some privacy risks overlap with some financial risks, depending on the risk owner's point of view. It doesn't make sense to solve the same problem in 10 different ways. [10:30] The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is a valuable partner of CISA's. NIST can see what works or doesn't work as a conceptual or technical framework. NIST studies a problem from several angles and gives CISA an effective solution for the framework. [11:23] Daniel Elliott of NIST has been on RIMScast. James has collaborated with Daniel. [11:49] CISA is a collaborative agency. It does not exist without its partners and stakeholders. When NIST facilitates conversations between CISA and other stakeholders, it helps CISA figure out, of all the problems in the world, which critical problem we need to solve right now. [12:17] CISA has Cyber Performance Goals or CPGs, which are a subset of the NIST Cybersecurity Framework. CISA will tell a small business that they should start with the CPG and get it right, and then expand to everything else. [12:38] CPGs are not a substitute for a risk management framework, but they are a starting point. The CPGs would not exist if not for the work NIST had done in talking to small, medium, and large businesses and figuring out all the different issues they face. [13:08] In December, Chinese cyber attackers infiltrated U.S. agencies. When there is a major incident like that, there is a whole-government response. CISA plays an important role in that response, like a firefighter. Law enforcement plays the role of investigator. [14:16] CISA and its interagency partners are heavily involved in responding to recent Chinese activity associated with both Salt Typhoon and Volt Typhoon. They've been working very closely with the Treasury Department to understand and mitigate the impacts of the recent incident.  [14:35] There's no indication that any other Federal agency has been impacted by the incident but CISA continues to monitor the situation and coordinate with other authorities, like the FBI, to ensure that there's a comprehensive response. [14:50] The security of federal systems and data is of critical importance to national security. CISA is working aggressively to safeguard any further impacts. The People's Republic of China is a persistent threat, specifically, the GRC and related entities, who perform these activities. [15:12] They're one of the most persistent and strategically sophisticated adversaries we face in cyberspace today. The PRC has decades of experience in conducting rampant cyber espionage against U.S. businesses and critical infrastructure. [15:26] CISA has become increasingly concerned over the last year that the PRC is not just doing espionage but is trying to burrow into the critical infrastructure for a rainy day. These state-sponsored activities are coming from campaigns like Volt Typhoon and Salt Typhoon. [15:45] What happened to Treasury provides a stark example of these types of tactics. These tactics target critical infrastructure such as telecommunications, aviation, water, and energy. [15:56] Their goal, as far as we can tell, is not to cause immediate damage but to gain persistent access to those systems and remain undetected until they want to do something. [16:08] CISA has been very involved, not just responding to these incidents, but deeply studying these incidents to understand what is happening and what we need to do as a government and nation to protect ourselves from these burrowing activities. [16:27] Plug Time! RIMS Webinars! Resolver will be joining us on February 6th to discuss “4 Themes Shaping the Future of GRC in 2025”. [16:39] HUB International continues its Ready for Tomorrow Series with RIMS. On February 20th, they will host “Ready for the Unexpected? Strategies for Property Valuation, Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity in 2025”. [16:55] More webinars will be announced soon and added to the RIMS.org/webinars page. Go there to register. Registration is complimentary for RIMS members. [17:07] Nominations are also open for the Donald M. Stuart Award which recognizes excellence in risk management in Canada. Links are in this episode's show notes. [17:20] Let's Return to My Interview with James Burd of the Cyber Infrastructure Security Agency!   [17:42] Whether talking about AI, IoT, or 5G, the issues are hardware problems and software problems. [18:02] The issues of the 1970s are similar to the issues of the 2020s, regarding vulnerabilities, exposure, and unsafe practices when developing software and hardware. [18:20] What we're seeing in the emerging technology space with AI, IoT, and 5G is an increase in the volume and velocity of data. The improvement of technology in this space is based on power and efficiency. Software improvement is based on the reach of interconnectivity. [18:34] Privacy and cybersecurity risks do not just appear. We're seeing existing risks and issues increasing in size and complexity. What we previously thought of as a perceived risk is now a real risk, thanks to advances in computational power and the amount of data available. [18:54] It's always been a risk but it was less likely to occur until this point where there's more data, more volume, and more complexity. AI systems rely on a vast amount of personal data, raising concerns about data security, algorithmic bias, and a lack of transparency. [19:11] We've heard about these risks with machine learning and big data databases. They require governance frameworks that address how data is collected, stored, and used in systems, or, in this case, AI models. [19:28] Those frameworks should be familiar to anyone working in the data protection space or the risk management space for the last three decades. Insurers getting into the cybersecurity space have been paying stark attention to this. [19:58] We've found out that IoT devices are probably the easiest and most risky entrance points within networks into homes and critical infrastructure devices. The biggest risks they create are unauthorized access, data breaches, and potential surveillance. [20:19] These are not new risks. They're existing risks that are promulgated because of the new avenue to get in. It used to be that the worst thing that could happen to an IoT device like a router is that it gets compromised and becomes part of a botnet to take down websites. [20:38] Today, that still happens, but that IoT device is looked at as the back door for entering someone's network if it's not properly secured. [20:49] In itself, 5G is awesome. There are fantastic things to do with increased data flow. With increased speed and connectivity come the ability to move more data at a time and we're facing data being transferred in an insecure manner. People don't know what data they're sharing. [21:15] We're running into the same classic issues but they're exacerbated by something we view as a major success, access. Access should be celebrated but we shouldn't open doors because we can open them. We need to be able to make sure those doors are secured. [21:48] James paraphrases Mark Groman, a privacy expert formerly with the FTC. “Privacy and cybersecurity are sometimes viewed as competing priorities. They are two sides of the same coin. I refuse to live in a world where you compromise security for privacy or vice versa.” [22:11] We live in a world where you can have both. The great thing about advancing technologies is that we can do both. Both cybersecurity and privacy aim to protect sensitive data and systems, just from slightly different angles and for different reasons. [22:31] There has to be a collaborative approach between cybersecurity and privacy. An intermediary like a risk professional can help cybersecurity and privacy teams work together. [22:41] By leveraging things privacy-preserving technologies and designing privacy into cybersecurity measures, organizations can bridge the gap and achieve harmony between the two essential functions. This strengthens the organization and its overall risk management. [22:58] When a risk is realized in one area, it's common for it to be a harmonious risk with another risk in a different area. In the privacy and cybersecurity space, risks overlap often. Conflicts between cybersecurity and privacy are easily bridged. [23:24] Cybersecurity professionals want to collect more data; privacy professionals want you to minimize the amount of data you collect. [23:34] Cybersecurity relies on extensive data collection to detect, monitor, and respond to threats. Privacy wants to collect only what's necessary and maintain it for a minimum time. [23:46] Security monitoring tools like intrusion detection systems may gather logs or metadata that could include personal data, creating potential privacy risks, especially for an insider threat. [24:00] Organizations can implement privacy-aware cybersecurity solutions that anonymize or pseudo-anonymize data where possible, allowing cybersecurity professionals to get to the root of the problem they're trying to solve while masking sensitive data. [24:13] If you're investigating an insider threat, you can unmask the data. Do you need that data to do the job that you're tasked to do? If not, why run the risk of inappropriately accessing it? [24:53] Privacy frameworks will always encourage transparency about data usage and sharing, especially by private entities doing consumer business and handling personal information. [25:07] The public needs to know what you are collecting from them, how you are using it, and whether are you sharing it. They need to know if you are handling their data securely. [25:38] James would tell cybersecurity professionals that if they think obscurity is security, they should find another job. Obscurity is typically the worst way to secure things. [25:51] There are ways to describe how data is being held or secured by an organization without compromising the cybersecurity tools or techniques used to monitor or look for vulnerabilities. [26:03] Transparency can be maintained without compromising security and can be used in a way to assure the public that an organization is keeping serious security techniques in mind when handling the public's data. James tells how to share that message with the public. [27:08] When James opens software, he reads the Third Party Agreements. He knows most people don't. Government agencies include a plain language version of the agreement. Some private companies are doing the same to help people understand how their data is being used. [28:40] Quick Break for RIMS Plugs! The first of hopefully many RIMS Texas Regional Conferences will be held in San Antonio from August 4th through August 6th, 2025. [28:58] This groundbreaking event is set to unite the Texas RIMS Chapters and welcome risk management professionals from around the world! Also known as the Risk Management Roundup in San Antonio, you can join as a speaker!  [29:11] The Conference planning committee is interested in submissions that explore technology and cyber risk, workforce protection and advancement, energy and sustainability, extreme weather, construction, restaurant, retail, hospitality, and other trending now sessions. [29:28] The deadline to submit your proposal is Monday, February 24th. The link to the event and the submission process is in this episode's show notes. Go check it out! [29:39] The Spencer Educational Foundation's goal to help build a talent pipeline of risk management and insurance professionals is achieved in part by its collaboration with risk management and insurance educators across the U.S. and Canada. [29:58] Since 2010, Spencer has awarded over $3.3 million in general grants to support over 130 student-centered experiential learning initiatives at universities and RMI non-profits. Spencer's 2026 application process will open on May 1st, 2025, and close on July 30th, 2025. [30:20] General grant awardees are typically notified at the end of October. Learn more about Spencer's general grants through the Programs tab at SpencerEd.org. [30:30] Let's Return to the Conclusion of My Interview with the Chief Privacy Officer of CISA, James Burd! [31:00] A lot of ERM frameworks exist because they were required by regulation or law. [31:10] Privacy professionals are starting to see the same risks that risk management and compliance professionals have been dealing with for decades. The big tools that privacy professionals use are called Data Privacy Impact Assessments (DPIA). [31:29] DPIAs vary, depending on the regulatory framework or law. DPIAs do two things: they identify what data assets you have and they examine the risks that are associated with the handling of those data assets and what mitigations must be in place to buy down those risks. [31:48] That assessment can populate half of an ERM framework's register. Getting involved with your privacy program manager as they do these DPIAs may first cause the privacy program manager to resist your risk assessment, but a risk in one space is a risk in another space. [32:21] The DPIA is a valuable source of information for a risk manager. You can see the risks earlier. You can identify with the privacy program manager what some of the major risks might become. That means both realized and unrealized risks, which are equally important. [33:06] A privacy program manager will be preoccupied with a lot of the perceived risks. A risk manager wants to know which risks are more likely and identify them early. [33:40] A likelihood assessment will help the privacy officer identify how many “calories” to spend on this risk. The risk manager and privacy manager have a mutually beneficial relationship. They help each other. [34:17] CISA provides cybersecurity education, news on vulnerabilities and cyber threats, threat intelligence, and service to critical infrastructure providers once there is an incident of some sort. The CISA website shows cyber threat indicators of what a compromise might look like. [35:40] CISA has found novel patterns on networks that make it hard to tell that your network has been compromised. CISA calls those things “Left of Doom.” On the “RIght of Doom,” CISA prioritizes the incidents that it responds to. [36:02] CISA focuses primarily on critical infrastructure. If you have a situation CISA cannot respond to, they will assist you by a local field office to find the people to help you, whether it's law enforcement, local cyber security service providers, or a local Emergency Response Team. [37:03] Companies are involved in the California wildfires. Could an incident like that distract them that they might become susceptible to data breaches? James notes that you can't address every problem at the same time. Prioritize, rack, and stack. [37:17] Incidents are going to happen. CISA asks agencies and companies to take the time and spend the resources to knock out all the low-hanging fruit. The great majority of incidents CISA sees are bad actors exploiting very simple, easy-to-fix vulnerabilities. [37:55] It might be companies not using encrypted traffic, or only using a password to secure access to a server. The fix is relatively low cost or low impact. It takes time to figure out how to do the fix, but you'll be grateful that you took the time and spent the money to implement it. [38:24] The cost of a greater fix from the breach of a simple vulnerability will be far greater than the resources you'd spend to address it in the first place. Establishing that floor will help you focus on other “fires” that pop up while assuring you won't get “popped” for a silly reason. [38:49] If somebody's going to get you, make sure they've tried their hardest to get you. [38:58] It's Data Privacy Day today, as this episode is released! It's the start of Data Privacy Week! The theme is Take Control of Your Data!  [39:22] Robust privacy governance tips: Figure out where your data asset inventory is for your organization. Keep track of it and keep track of the risk associated with each data asset, Each data asset may have a different set of risks. [39:47] Every organization should maintain a comprehensive inventory of data assets, detailing what data is collected, where it is stored, who has access to it, and how it's used. [39:56] The risk professional probably isn't the one who takes the inventory, but they should have access to it and they should be evaluating that inventory.  [40:06] The risk professional can help the privacy manager by helping them establish clear policies and procedures for handling data, access control, and breach response, based on real risk. A privacy officer sometimes has difficulty identifying a real risk over a perceived risk. [40:23] By focusing on real risks, you avoid the problem where privacy officers spend too much energy coming up with solutions for the most unlikely scenarios, leaving organizations unprepared for what's likely to happen.

This episode was created in Notebook LM using a NIST based cybersecurity framework I created that focuses on nonprofits. This document outlines a cybersecurity framework for nonprofits, based on the NIST framework. It prioritizes the protection of various data types (member, donor, employee) and assets, emphasizing cybersecurity training and insurance. The framework addresses five core cybersecurity functions: identify, protect, detect, respond, and recover. Each function is mapped to specific organizational objectives and categorized by risk level (high, medium, low, or not applicable). The ultimate goal is to provide a structured approach to managing cybersecurity risks within nonprofit organizations.For more information please email me at info@techandmain.com or visit www.techandmain.com.

How do phishing scams, AI-powered attacks, and strategic governance intersect? Together, they're redefining the future of cybersecurity. Organizations are navigating a mix of challenges and implementing innovative solutions to proactively address today's threats.  Today's guest is Kelly Hood. She is the EVP and cybersecurity engineer at Optics Cyber Solutions. She is a CISSP who specializes in implementing cybersecurity and privacy best practices to manage risks and to achieve compliance. She supports the NIST cybersecurity framework and serves as a CMMC registered practitioner, helping organizations strengthen their cybersecurity posture and develop effective risk management strategies. Show Notes: [01:06] - Kelly is a cyber security engineer at Optic Cyber Solutions. It's her job to help companies protect themselves. [02:17] - Don't be embarrassed if you fall for a phishing scam. [03:01] - These attempts are getting more realistic. Kelly shares how she was briefly fooled by a phishing scam that looks like an email from her mother. [05:25] - The NIST Cybersecurity Framework is a voluntary framework for defining cybersecurity. An update was put out in February of 2024. They also added a new function. [06:01] - The five functions that organize a cybersecurity program have been to identify, protect, detect, respond, and recover. They recently added the govern function. [06:38] - The govern function is about defining your business objective and then putting protections in place that makes sense for those objectives. [09:01] - The identify function is focused on knowing what we have. [09:40] - Protect includes everything from identity management, authentication, training, data security, and platform security. [10:12] - Detect is looking at what's happening around us. It's continuous monitoring and knowing what happens if something goes wrong. [11:00] - Respond is knowing what the plan is when something does happen. [12:01] - Recover is about getting back to normal after something happens. [16:22] - Data centers want to make sure that they have redundant power supplies. [17:33] - We discuss some of the things that people might forget when identifying cybersecurity assets. Data and people need to be thought about as well as systems and hardware. [21:00] - We need to write things down and understand what systems and data connections we have. [23:10] - We talk about the importance of being aware of the physical space and who is actually supposed to be there. [24:46] - Data is one of the assets that often gets overlooked for protection. There are many new requirements that require data to be protected. [27:54] - Monitoring to understand what traffic you should expect and what is and isn't normal activity is also important. [31:10] - Transparency and communication are paramount for creating trust. [33:51] - Sometimes recovery doesn't mean 100%. Get up and running and prioritize the systems that matter most. [36:56] - With governance, you really want to look at what you're trying to do with the business and then translate cybersecurity to fit that objective. [37:27] - Have guidance documentation in place and have oversight. Thanks for joining us on Easy Prey.

Both guests highlighted the critical gaps organizations face in these domains and shared practical insights on addressing them.Asaf Dori, a cybersecurity professional in healthcare and a researcher at the University of Sydney, underscored the need for governance-driven awareness to improve response and recovery capabilities. His research revealed that while organizations invest heavily in prevention and detection, they frequently neglect robust recovery plans. He emphasized the importance of comprehensive disaster recovery exercises over isolated system-based approaches. By linking governance to practical outcomes, Dori argued that organizations could better align their strategies with business resilience.Ashwin Pal, a partner at RSM with 26 years of experience in IT security, brought a field perspective, pointing out how recovery strategies often fail to meet business requirements. He discussed the disconnect between IT recovery metrics, such as RPOs and RTOs, and actual business needs. Pal noted that outdated assumptions about recovery timeframes and critical systems frequently result in misaligned priorities. He advocated for direct business engagement to establish recovery strategies that support operational continuity.A key theme was the role of effective governance in fostering collaboration between IT and business stakeholders. Both speakers agreed that engaging business leaders through tabletop exercises is an essential starting point. Simulating ransomware scenarios, for instance, often exposes gaps in recovery plans, such as inaccessible continuity documents during a crisis. Such exercises, they suggested, empower CISOs to secure executive buy-in for strategic improvements.The discussion also touched on the competitive advantages of robust cybersecurity practices. Dori noted that in some industries, such as energy, cybersecurity maturity is increasingly viewed as a differentiator in securing contracts. Pal echoed this, citing examples where certifications like ISO have become prerequisites in supply chain partnerships.By reframing cybersecurity as a business enabler rather than a cost center, organizations can align their response and recovery strategies with broader operational goals. This shift requires CISOs and risk officers to lead conversations that translate technical requirements into business outcomes, emphasizing trust, resilience, and customer retention.This dialogue provides actionable insights for leaders aiming to close the response and recovery gap and position cybersecurity as a strategic asset.____________________________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

Could the addition of 'Govern' to the NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 be the game-changer in how we approach cybersecurity governance?  We unravel the significant evolution of the framework, now bolstering enterprise risk management with a holistic approach that's essential for any organization, big or small. We dissect the interplay of the six functions—Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, Recover, and the new kid on the block, Govern—and how this integration across the entire lifecycle of protection can redefine the conventional cybersecurity steps. No stone is left unturned as we debate the necessity of maintaining distinct cybersecurity and privacy frameworks in the face of increasing overlap, a question that is becoming more pertinent as the digital age advances.

About this episode In this episode, Kip Boyle and Jason Dion discuss the importance of cybersecurity in the current digital landscape and focus on comparing two different standards: The NIST Cybersecurity Framework and the CIS Top 18. The NIST Framework was created to assist organizations in becoming cyber resilient and offers an adaptable and comprehensive approach to cyber risks. The CIS Top 18, on the other hand, provides an actionable and practical checklist of controls that is prioritized and sequenced. Both of these frameworks provide us with cybersecurity measures that can be used for different applications. They can be used individually, or they can work together by complementing each other in a comprehensive cybersecurity strategy. It is important to realize that the CIS Top 18 can end up being quite expensive for smaller organizations to operate, though, which is why many people are choosing the NIST CSF instead. You should always consider various factors, such as organizational size and specific needs, the type of threats faced, and the budget available for implementation when selecting the framework for your organization.

Brian Haugli is the Co-founder and CEO of SideChannel, a cybersecurity company that provides cyber risk assessment and ensures cybersecurity compliance for mid-sized organizations. He is a 20-year industry veteran who's led programs for the Department of Defense, the Pentagon, the Intelligence Community, and Fortune 500 companies.  With expertise in NIST guidance, threat intelligence implementations, and strategic organization initiatives, Brian is a sought-after speaker and the host of the #CISOlife podcast and YouTube channel. Brian also co-authored Cybersecurity Risk Management: Mastering the Fundamentals Using the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, an analysis of cybersecurity risk planning and management principles. In this episode… Public and private companies should prepare to meet SEC regulations with the new cybersecurity rules set to take effect in December. However, with cybersecurity assessment costs starting at six figures, how can small and mid-sized companies maintain compliance? Organizations that lack the resources of larger corporations can reduce costs by securing an information security consultant. These consultancies develop customized compliance programs to identify specific cybersecurity risks and recommend cost-effective strategies. For companies that adopt this type of service, cybersecurity expert Brian Haugli suggests retaining a CISO for at least 80 hours per month. During this time, a CISO should be able to formulate risk management solutions including acceptance, mitigation, and transfer. In this episode of the She Said Privacy/He Said Security, Jodi and Justin Daniels interview Brian Haugli, CEO of SideChannel, for an in-depth conversation about cybersecurity. Brian discusses the inspiration behind SideChannel and its mission, how mid-size companies can afford to retain a CISO, and procedures for navigating ransomware demands.

The SEC cyber rules take effect in December, but what have been the developments and impacts since they were announced at the beginning of the year?Up for discussion:-       The row back on having a cyber security expert on the board.“You may have one or more board members that have a high-level understanding of cybersecurity but how much true awareness do they have of what the organization's doing? They may be able to understand the context of an incident better, but they may not have true insight.”-       The 4-day disclosure period to confirm a breach, understand its impact and coordinate notifications.‘It's a very, very tight window to get all that set of detail included. They are looking for details around what the actual scope is of this breach to the other, the actual timing interval. That's a very, very difficult task.”-       The Clorox cyberattack and how it relates to the SEC cyber rules.“One of the things I think is really interesting to see is Clorox and the security incident that occurred there and the approach that they've taken as it relates to the SEC cyber ruling there. They're almost a test case at this point. Clorox actually has released three separate 8-K filings.”-       Do private companies also need to be wary of the SEC cyber rules?“What the SEC has responsibility for is directly impacting public companies. All private companies though need to have their ears up here because the SEC does have a willingness to stretch their regulatory perimeter over to include private companies.”  -       The significance of the How Material is That Hack website (https://howmaterialisthathack.org/)“They're trying to show what the actual estimated loss would equate to based on the information that they've seen. They do things in a way, which is kind of interesting. They do like a primary and a secondary cost model.”Follow or subscribe to the show on your preferred podcast platform.Share the show with others in the cybersecurity world.Get in touch via reimaginingcyber@gmail.com

https://www.yourcyberpath.com/95/ In the beginning, our hosts Jason Dion and Kip Boyle talk a little bit about their new company Akylade, which is going to provide affordable cybersecurity training. They discuss their initial motivations to start the company, what the plan for the company is, and what's the road map for Akylade. Then, we get into the topic of our episode, introducing our guest, Samuel Bodine, a cybersecurity sophomore, and the leader of the cyber defense team at Liberty University in Virginia. Sam discusses the different aspects of the competitions they get into, where they simulate a business environment and bring in hackers to test their cyber defense team's abilities to protect said environments. Sam also mentions that one of the hugest benefits that he finds in college is networking and that you can make lots of connections that could really help you down the road. On the other hand, sometimes you just have to start from nothing as he tells the story of how he walked into Lockheed Martin with a resume asking for an internship and how he got it a week later. Jason then goes over internships, how they work, and how they can be very useful for both the company and the intern. In the end, Sam mentions his trifecta for the perfect cybersecurity advancement, which is certifications, hands on practice, and real-life job experience. When you combine these three, you can have a great holistic understanding of cybersecurity. To cap it off, Jason highlights that it is crucial to show initiative and how you need to show how much you want something and how it can help you achieve it.
