"Secular humanism provides a cosmic outlook—a worldview in the broadest sense, grounding our lives in the context of our universe and relying on methods demonstrated by science. Secular humanists hold that ethics is consequential, to be judged by results. Secular humanism is a life stance, or what Council for Secular Humanism founder Paul Kurtz has termed a eupraxophy: a body of principles suitable for orienting a complete human life. As a secular life stance, secular humanism incorporates the Enlightenment principle of individualism, which celebrates emancipating the individual from traditional controls by family, church, and state, increasingly empowering each of us to set the terms of our own lives." -Antonio Myers --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/antonio-myers4/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/antonio-myers4/support

While the Biden administration's directives on national cybersecurity have given federal agencies an explicit roadmap to fortifying security, the chief cybersecurity advisor for a global technology provider argues that agencies must also keep operational resiliency in clear view. “You can't think solely about security. And you can't just think solely about resilience. You have to have both,” says Paul Kurtz, a former White House National Security Council director.

On today's episode of The Daily Scoop Podcast, some highlights from CyberScoop's Zero Trust Summit this week. Department of Commerce Chief Information Officer Andre Mendes leads off the summit with a keynote on the challenges and opportunities presented by zero trust. Agencies already have components of what they need to implement zero trust. Department of Agriculture Chief Information Security Officer Ja'Nelle DeVore and Paul Kurtz of Splunk discuss implementing zero trust mandates on a panel moderated by CyberScoop's Tim Starks. To close out the summit, CISA's TIC Program Management & Senior Cybersecurity Architect Sean Connelly breaks down the state of adoption of zero trust across the federal government.

In episode 50 of The Cyber5, we are joined by Paul Kurtz. Paul's career includes serving as Director of Counter-Terrorism, Senior Director for Cyber Security, and Special Assistant to the President of the United States for Critical Infrastructure Protection. He was previously the CEO of Threat Intelligence Platform TrueStar and is now the Chief Cybersecurity Advisor, Public Sector at Splunk.  In this episode, we discuss the Biden Administration's executive order for cybersecurity and how it impacts the public and private sector in relation to intelligence management. We also talk about an inside-out network approach and the criticality of cloud migration in detecting cyber threats at scale. We further discuss the value of threat intelligence and the importance of integration with enterprise systems.  6 Topics Covered in this Episode: Three Key Points of the Executive Order: While important topics such as zero trust identity access management and third party risk management get the major attention, three important, but often overlooked, points covered in the executive order are: Cloud Transition Information Sharing Data Collection and Preservation From an intelligence management and security perspective, the migration of the US public sector to the cloud, coupled with information sharing and data preservation are the most important actions to reduce mean time to detect and alert, mean time to respond, and mean time to remediate.  Need for Automation of Internal and External Telemetry Endpoint Detection and Response, next generation anti-virus, next generation firewalls, and IAM (identity and access management) are examples of the advancement in enterprise security solutions. These technologies are now being augmented by threat intelligence solutions. Integrating and automating this suite of advanced capabilities is key to optimizing intelligence and defending against increasingly sophisticated threat actors. MSSP are Critical to Protecting SMBs MSSPs must integratie their alerting and detection ability to the cloud in order to protect small and medium sized businesses. Small and medium sized businesses don't typically have the security teams or expertise to patch, remediate, and threat hunt. MSSPs with MDR capability can effectively serve this market.  Threat Intelligence Must Be Integrated to Augment Existing Telemetry Threat intelligence must be actionable. A key action to achieving actionability is the integration into an internet ticketing system, a Security Event Management Tool (SIEM), a Threat Intelligence Platform, or an Endpoint Detection and Response solution.  Behavior is King for Appropriate Context The ability to detect malicious behavior from actors inside a network and initiate an appropriate response. This is not possible without the context provided by cloud integration, log aggregation, a retrospective “look back” capability, and the integration of external data and internal telemetry.  US Civilian Agencies Need a Roadmap for Cloud Integration If the Central Intelligence Agency can embrace the cloud, so can other agencies. A federal roadmap is urgently needed to defend against attacks by sophisticated adversaries.

Hello, my name is Ryan Rutherford and welcome to this short introduction for a new podcast, Skeptically Curious. So why this particular name? Let's first start with the adjective, curious. Like many people, I have an insatiable curiosity about many subjects, and in my case, this includes politics, philosophy, history, literature, psychology, religion, economics, and different branches of science such as neuroscience, evolutionary biology, climate science, and physics. The main reason for deciding to launch this new podcast venture is because I would love to further indulge my curiosity and, in the process, hopefully continue to inform and educate myself, as well as any potential listeners. Now for the adverb. The term skeptic is often bandied about, but as with the way theory has a different meaning when employed by scientists than it does in everyday usage, I have a rather more specific definition in mind. The skepticism I hope to bring to bear in my interviews and to promote through this podcast is the kind associated with the scientific method. In fact, skepticism is crucial to assessing the validity of claims and being guided by empiricism. The word scepticism is derived from a Greek term, skeptomai, which means to “consider carefully.” Paul Kurtz, the secular humanist and philosopher, described a sceptic as someone “who is willing to question any claim to truth, asking for clarity in definition, consistency in logic and adequacy in evidence. The use of scepticism is thus an essential part of objective scientific inquiry and the search for reliable knowledge.” Here my interest in science should become clearer in that I consider the scientific method to be the supreme epistemological framework ever devised by human beings to apprehend the natural world, a point I will make repeatedly in the episodes that follow. There is simply no other game in town, as it were, to reliably discover the nature of reality. This is an ever-ongoing process, however, because even though the scientific revolution has expanded our knowledge further than ever before, much yet remains to be deciphered in the grand book of nature. Other elements integral to scientifically-informed skepticism include critical thinking, rationality, and logic, all essential tools necessary to think more clearly and understand more fully. The last major theme worth noting and related to the kind of skepticism I just hinted at, is that of universality. This is a cornerstone value of the Enlightenment project that emerged in Europe in the 18th century, but which is still unfolding into the present, and probably always will so long as any society has room for improvement. The universal values associated with the Enlightenment, and which still carry immense relevance, include democracy, secularism, free speech, individual liberty, legal equality of the sexes, freedom of the press, and, crucially, the scientific method. If anyone can make a coherent argument about why any culture or country anywhere would not be better applying Enlightenment principles, enshrined perhaps most vividly in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights first promulgated in 1948, I would love to hear it. Furthermore, there is a link between universalism and science, as renowned sociologist Robert Merton identified this aspect as one of the essential characteristics of the scientific method in ‘The Normative Structure of Science.' The others were communalism, disinterestedness, and organised skepticism. Taken together, I can think of few better values to strive towards than those. Lastly, if this podcast were to have a tagline, which many seem to have, it would be my hope for everyone listening, including yours truly, to “know more and think better.” So please join me on this new journey as we engage and broaden our skeptical curiosity.

Then the boys head to the Fillmore to see a HOG in a shark cage, and drink a Girl Scout cookie in a stout. After that it's time to Sip in Center City, and try a whiskey infused with the part of a beaver that tastes like vanilla and raspberries. The Beer and Booze Broz are John McDevitt (@jm1060) and Paul Kurtz (@kurtzpaul). Tom Rickert (@teerick) produces the podcast.

The Beer and Booze Broz visit Home Sweet Homebrew at 2008 Sansom Street to meet the obviously married couple who taught the masters how to do their thing. Then they bow and grovel their way to Monk's Cafe, where His Excellency Supreme Leader Tom Peters emerges from his dragon-guarded-basement-beer-dungeon with gifts for his subjects. We are not worthy. From there, it's time for smoked meats and fine wines. Are we in Italy? Gin is what's for dinner, and then the Broz search the Main Line for a couple of philosophers - well balanced with malt, hops, and alcohol - and meet the man with the best laugh in the world.

The Beer and Booze Broz travel to the land of Aston, Delaware County, to can beers with the wizards at 2SP.

The Broz play games during Philly Wine Week, learn that men don't drink enough rosé, and make some new friends looking for love. Beaujolais!
