In this episode of the Technology & Security podcast, host Dr. Miah Hammond-Errey is joined by the Australian Independent National Security Legislation Monitor, Jake Blight. We explore a paradigm shift in our understanding of electronic surveillance, whether the moment of interception is still the most the invasive point of interception in a digital era– the current legal basis. Or, if digital tech and AI have changed processing, disclosure and sharing to the extent that the retention, analysis and dissemination of intelligence has greater significance. We explore the implications of the "mosaic effect" on public interest immunity cases – and why it can't extent to criminal law We discuss the sheer complexity and volume of national security laws in Australia, including secrecy offences and law reform. We discuss how powerful–and unique- data disruption, intel gathering and account takeover warrants in the Surveillance Legislation Amendment Identify and Disruption Act 2021 are. We discuss the INSLM review of the definition of terrorism and what it includes, as well as how the offence of preparing to commit terrorism acts have been applied to foreign interference and espionage offences, exploring the subtle distinctions between influence and interference.  Tune in for a thought-provoking examination of the intersections between national security law, technology, and intelligence in safeguarding democratic values. Jake Blight is the Independent National Security Legislation Monitor (INSLM). He has practiced in the field of national security law for almost 25 years and has considerable experience in independent oversight and review of intelligence and security agencies.

A security intelligence analyst says our SIS is becoming increasingly transparent.   It's released its second annual Security Threat Environment report.   It identifies a person acting alone as our biggest terrorist risk, and expresses concern about the amount of online extremist content that young people are being exposed to.   Former Intelligence Consultant for the US Government Paul Buchanan says the report doesn't mince words.   He says the document names Russia and China as hostile, illiberal states.  Buchanan says the report will probably rile the diplomats and Ministry of Foreign Affairs as they're not being sensitive in their language, but good on them for giving an honest assessment of who is trying to meddle with New Zealand.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this week's episode we're looking at how IS and al-Qaeda affiliated terrorist groups in Southeast Asia continue to exploit online platforms to disseminate propaganda, even as attacks in the region decline. We explore the history of militant Islamist activities in the region, as well as the key players; Why and how these groups and their supporters focus so much of their energy on online propaganda; And why we should care when terrorist content stays online.A note: we recorded this episode before the announcement by leaders of the Jemaah Islamiyah, or JI, of the group's disbandment. It's one of the main groups we explore in this episode.Archie Macfarlane is joined by Dr. Judith Jacob.

A security intelligence analyst says the US has got what it needed from Julian Assange.   The Wikileaks founder has struck a deal with the US and will soon plead guilty to an espionage charge before being sentenced to time already served.   Paul Buchanan told Mike Hosking that Assange has spent the last 14 years in some sort of confinement.   He says the US has won its pound of flesh out of him, adding that he's a broken guy and this sounds like a fair way to end the entire thing.   Buchanan doubts Assange will get the pardon he is seeking.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Guest post by Rob Allen, who is an IT Professional with almost two decades of experience assisting small and medium enterprises embrace and utilise technology. Worrying trends are emerging in how ransomware is being not just more narrowly targeted, but tailored and sophisticated too According to Security Intelligence, one of the top 10 most costly cyber attacks of 2022, took place in April, where ransomware crippled the US Austin Peay State University. The attack brought the university to a halt just before final exams began, reducing faculty, staff and students to personal devices to access email and other university resources. The university cancelled final exams and closed all computer labs. Ransomware: narrowing the focus for more targeted attacks It was forewarning of later attacks seen in the same sector here at home in 2023. It is becoming easier for ransomware to target specific sectors and individual organizations, with elements of artificial intelligence (AI) and automation being incorporated, adding to developments such as ransomware-as-a-service. It does not have to be the devastating strike it used to be. A combination of policies, controls and layered protections can stop ransomware, minimising damage and ensuring your business can carry on. There is little doubt that ransomware is becoming more prevalent, and more costly. Gartner reports that as many as a third of organisations globally have experienced some kind of ransomware attack. As reported by BCS, while 2022 saw a slight global fall in ransomware incidents, Europe saw a 63% increase. IBM's "Cost of a Data Breach Report" 2022 found that the share of breaches caused by ransomware grew 41% in the period and took 49 days longer than average to identify and contain. Additionally, destructive attacks increased in cost by more than $430,000, making the global average cost of a ransomware attack $4.54 million. The volume and impact of ransomware is further multiplied by technological developments. Ransomware-as-a-service has already been observed and is well documented. Now, cybersecurity experts suspect that AI and machine learning (ML) may be deployed to increase efficacy, and perhaps facilitate automation. Automating significant elements of the ransomware process could mean an even greater acceleration of attacks, argues Mark Driver, a research vice president at Gartner. 'It's not worth their effort if it takes them hours and hours to do it manually, but if they can automate it', Driver reasons, "it's terrifying." While it has not yet been definitively identified in the wild, security expert Mikko Hyppönen has said there may be a few, highly successful ransomware gangs with the resources to hire AI talent and develop the capability. Experts see distinct patterns emerging within ransomware attacks due to these technological developments. TechTarget reports that the three sectors of media/leisure/entertainment, retail, and energy/oil/gas/utilities, accounted for more attacks than any other sectors. These ransomware attacks are increasingly tailored for a specific sector or industry, with utilities, in particular, seeing more narrowly focused methodologies, instead of the 'scatter gun' approach of old. This has led to speculation that if the trends of as-a-service platforms, and sector specific adaptation converge with embedded AI and ML, automation, , then ransomware incidents such as the Colonial Pipeline attack in the US could not only become more common, but more coordinated and effective. If such tactics and tools were to be used by a nation-state, entire sets of critical infrastructure could be at risk of crippling attacks. However, it is important to point out that while ransomware is a growing menace, it is often the final stage of an attack. Gartner's "Anatomy of a Ransomware Attack," it depicts the initial stages as ingress- through the likes of phishing, email, credentials dumps, etc, compromise followed by burrowing and lateral movement - prior to ...

Professor Mark Clark Discusses CSUSB's New MS Program in National Security Intelligence Analysis and Cybersecurity and talks about protecting information on the internet.

Guest: Sasha Planting | Associate Editor  at Daily Maverick Sasha Planting talks to John about the problem of cable theft on South African roads and the urgent need for security measures. It costs about R1-million a kilometre to replace that cable. That means R5.5-million in cable-related expenses a day. High-tech security would be cheap at the price. This year, Transnet Freight Rail cancelled 1,190 trains as a direct result of security-related incidents. There has been a spike in incidents on the coal line, the manganese line and on the Central Corridor that connects these lines. These lost volumes can never be recouped. These lines are cash cows; they are what is holding the already lossmaking company back from the brink See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Our guest Kerry Matre from Mandiant Security supports marketing cybersecurity products. It is interesting to hear her path from application development and Security Intelligence to support marketing and business development. She brings the primary question to clients: why are we doing this, and how will people interact? Our guest says she often finds that many tools the organization purchased already are not fully implemented. The use of statistics such as configuration confidence is a very insightful measure, as she explains. What does it take to be using your tools effectively? This conversation also has some great discussions on AI versus human analysis, where we are producing viable solutions using AI. Finally, it was interesting to hear Kerry's take on the analyst industry in a few years. This show provides some great incite about the direction of the intelligence industry.

Today, we're going to explore approaches to security at companies of different scales with Sacha Faust, Head of Security Intelligence at Amazon Payments. Sacha has held numerous roles in security and development across the industry spectrum, and we kick things off hearing about his journey in the space. The first part of the episode is about the difference between security engineering at startups versus established companies and Sacha weighs in on his experiences at Lyft versus Azure and Amazon. At Lyft, Sacha's approach was all about empowering teams and taking advantage of the fast-growing environment to build things into the company's fabric. In contrast, teams are bigger and processes more established at larger firms, and Sacha talks about the depth versus breadth-focused approach required. Here we explore what it means to go deep on a bug, hearing Sacha's ideas about learning from bug failures so you can make an impact you can measure, and the complexities of truly fixing something. We move on to the subject of Sacha's time as a developer next, and he talks about the lessons he learned about the intricacies of that world and the empathy they gave him when he switched back to engineering. His empowerment-first approach was very much born during that time as was his belief in the value of diversity of experience for building one's career as well as one's teams. For insights into security work at different scales and a few gems about the people side of security from Sacha too, be sure to tune in.

The national security and intelligence communities had a particularly tough year in 2019 with a growing number of indictments, arrests and convictions of security-clearance holders. They also experienced a rise in the theft of intellectual property and trade secrets. In response to these trends, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence will release a new counterintelligence strategy this week that it says takes a long-term approach to insider threats and nation-state threats. Federal News Network's Jory Heckman had more on what's in that strategy, on Federal Drive with Tom Temin.
