In this OODAcast episode, host Matt Devost sits down with Maxie Reynolds, author of The Art of the Attack, to explore the evolution of her unique career from offshore oil rigs to elite red teaming and cybersecurity innovation. Maxie shares how her unconventional path, working a decade in oil and gas, earning degrees while on remote rigs, and eventually breaking into cybersecurity at PwC, shaped her approach to physical and digital security. Her journey led to the creation of a company that builds underwater data centers, a novel fusion of her industrial and red teaming experiences. She discusses the rising interest in submerged infrastructure, particularly after China's moves in the space and the demands of modern AI-driven cooling systems. The conversation dives deep into what it means to adopt an "attacker mindset", seeing opportunities where others see obstacles and using architecture, human psychology, and environment as vectors for access.

Today we start on a series about the movement to organize domestic workers and the history of their fight. We are a proud member of the Labor Radion Network.

Sponsored by The National League of Justice and Security Professionals, Where the members come first. www.laborknowyourrights.com Sorry about the language but this was what was said at the time.

I never expected the word “algorithm” to play such a significant role in life and society. Growing up, I thought an algorithm was something that we would leave to math classes. The last time I took a math class to complete my undergraduate degree requirements. After that, I figured I was done with algorithms. But nope. Algorithms have been thrust back into our lives. We live in an age where not only are we trying to learn the algorithms, but we are trying to beat the algorithms. There are forces largely unknown that are not just determining what we see, but the extent to which others can see us. For those who are trying to make content, post content, and be seen, it can be a major uphill battle. As more and more material gets tossed out into the online world, it is harder and harder to be noticed. There is this pull to become brands, to become products, to be commodities that are recognizable to customers. We gear materials to accomplishing those ends, with hopes that we can become definable in a particular kind of way. But like the tree that falls in the forest, if content is posted online but no one is there to see it, does it make any noise?To help us with the question of what makes content that connects and beating the algorithm, we welcome Tyler Schmoker to the podcast. Tyler has an interesting history in the area of military intelligence through his time in the US Army. From that, he started his own company called Winsly that works with a range of businesses to help them with security, innovation, risk assessment, and business strategy, amongst other things. We talk with Tyler what makes for information that resonates with your audience. We explore how he has used lessons from real tradecraft to crafting social media content. While the term ‘propaganda' now has a negative connotation, at its root it means creating messages that are meant to prompt and elicit certain behaviors. But we can only do that if our message is built to connect to our audience, and they can see it. To do so, we have to apply a programmatic approach, documenting what works and what doesn't, learning lessons, and building a base. We discuss how to use the lessons he learned from his  intelligence work and how he applies that to business clients. We talk about whether “military intelligence” is in fact a contradiction in terms. We look at the ethics of technology and AI, especially when it comes to social media. Specifically, we look at how to leverage these insights to platforms like LinkedIn, and create content and communication that connects. Tyler Schmoker - https://www.linkedin.com/in/tyler-schmoker-76997756/Winsly - https://www.winslyllc.com/Social Media for Security Professionals - https://securityjournalamericas.com/a-social-media-for-security-part-1/

The episode primarily focused on the intersection of the ELVIS Act and rights of publicity in the age of AI.The discussion kicked off with JC Heinbockel providing a primer on intellectual property and the rights of publicity. He explained that while intellectual property encompasses discrete categories such as copyrights, patents, and trademarks, the right of publicity is more nuanced and often intertwined with personal privacy rights. Essentially, the right of publicity allows individuals to exploit their likenesses for commercial purposes or prevent others from doing so without permission. Heinbockel emphasized that the right of publicity is particularly relevant to celebrities and public figures whose likenesses hold significant market value. However, with the advent of generative AI and deepfake technology, protecting one's likeness has become more complicated.The new ELVIS Act in Tennessee is designed to address these challenges by extending the right of publicity to include voices and by explicitly targeting the misuse of likenesses through deepfake technology. The episode also touched on various instances where deepfake technology has already led to unauthorized use of celebrity likenesses. JC Heinbockel cited examples like deepfake ads featuring Clint Eastwood and Tom Hanks, highlighting the legal and ethical complications these technologies introduce.The Elvis Act serves as a legislative response to these advancements, aiming to protect individuals' likenesses from unauthorized commercial exploitation. For business leaders and security professionals, the conversation underscored the imperative need to develop robust AI policies, especially within marketing and advertising departments. Heinbockel urged organizations to carefully navigate the use of AI in creating content, as both the input and output of AI-generated material need to be scrutinized for compliance with existing laws and ethical standards. Moreover, the potential pitfalls of using generative AI extend beyond marketing to areas such as customer support and even internal operations.Heinbockel warned of the risks associated with using AI platforms that might inadvertently disclose confidential information or generate legally dubious content. He emphasized the necessity of setting strict guidelines and having comprehensive policies in place to mitigate these risks.The episode concluded with a call to action for companies to be proactive in understanding the implications of using AI and to plan accordingly. By doing so, they can better navigate the complex legal landscape surrounding intellectual property and publicity rights in the digital age. This timely discussion with JC Heinbockel highlights not just the challenges but also the opportunities for businesses to adapt and thrive in this evolving technological environment.Top Questions AddressedWhat are the rights of publicity, and how do they relate to intellectual property laws?How does the ELVIS Act in Tennessee address the challenges posed by deepfake technology?What should businesses be aware of when using AI to ensure they are compliant with legal and ethical standards?___________________________Watch this and other videos on ITSPmagazine's YouTube ChannelRedefining CyberSecurity Podcast with Sean Martin, CISSP playlist:

A report shared by the Information Systems Audit and Control Association shows that 51% of people working in cyber security may leave their job in the next year because of stress.But it's not just the stress of protecting organisations that is having an effect on people's mental health in the sector. It's an area that led today's guest, cyber security expert Peter Coroneos, to set up Cybermindz.org - a not-for-profit to help address and prevent burnout in the cybersecurity industry.

In this episode of The Gate 15 Interview, Andy Jabbour welcomes Akmal Ali, Founder & CEO of Aluma and inOrbit. Formerly serving as the Deputy Director of the SAFETY Act program within U.S. Department of Homeland Security, Akmal was a key contributor in expanding the scope of the program, as the department considered how to responsibly leverage the granted protections to further its mission to protect the homeland. These efforts included the expansion of for security services, cybersecurity and venue security-related applications from the private sector. The impact of this expansion is still a hallmark of the program today, as operators of many high-profile venues rely upon and engage with DHS in seeking SAFETY Act protections. At DHS, Akmal participated in extensive intra- and inter-agency collaboration with other government agencies to include the Transportation Security Administration, Customs and Border Protection, Domestic Nuclear Detection Office, U.S. Department of Defense, U.S. Department of Energy, and the Federal Aviation Administration. As a result of this experience, Akmal was exposed to a wide range of industries and perspectives that helped forge the underlying principles for how Aluma serves its clients today. Since departing DHS in 2011, Akmal has carried those ideals with him as he's worked some of the country's most high-profile and innovative companies. Akmal is based in the Washington, DC area. Akmal on LinkedIn.    In the discussion we address: Akmal's background, from Afghanistan to Jacksonville to Washington, D.C.

Ryan Schonfeld's pushback to age-old security processes and refusing to settle for the way it's always been done has helped him enable security teams to position their department as a business enabler, while protecting people and assets.Key topics of Schonfeld's discussion with host Chuck Randolph include:Why security teams need to understand the needs of the business and how their work can impact the success of the company.The cultural challenge of security viewing technology as a risk, instead of a force multiplier that enhances the irreplaceable value of human intel.Trends he's observing in the physical security industry and what's on the horizon.Key takeaways:Ryan Schonfeld: It's pretty incredible the amount of data that's out there. I think people, by and large, are more aware of the data today than they certainly were back in the early days of social media and smart devices, and as connected homes were becoming more relevant, and just more and more electronics becoming a part of everyday life. But one of the pieces in slow industries, like physical security, is lack of data isn't the issue, and it's really never been the issue. It's how data is effectively collected and operationalized. That's always what slowed things down.Chuck Randolph: It strikes me, you're talking as much about change management and cultural change as you are operational change. Or, as you said, "Operationalizing the way that we manage the data." I think about it again, we have all these massive bureaucracies, whether it's the military, law enforcement, big corporation, or security provider, you're dealing with a lineage of culture change. You're going to walk in and say, "Hey, we're going to help you manage. We need to look and manage data in different ways." What obstacles have you come up with in your career to change management?Ryan Schonfeld: I think fear of the unknown's probably the biggest one. As a former cop myself, there's a lot of people in our space that are maybe great security leaders, but don't have deep technology backgrounds. Sometimes, rather than surrounding themselves with domain experts, and people who can help understand the technology, and how that technology can be leveraged to improve the program, that technology starts getting seen as a risk to their job, to their program, to whatever it is that they've been building over time, when in fact it really should be a force multiplier.I'm not a person that thinks that AI or technology is going to get rid of all the people in security, that's not possible. I think technology has a really important place in our space, but security is always going to require a human to understand context, and understand nuance, and ultimately make a decision that could impact whether or not somebody's life is harmed or protected, or what happens to a brand. That's not something that organizations are going to entrust to AI or a model. But that person who ultimately needs to make the decision needs to be equipped with the best information as quickly as possible, and that's where technology becomes that force multiplier. By embracing that, you have the ability to look great. It's not a risk to your program or to your job.Chuck Randolph: Ryan, what you're really talking about is making the security function accessible to everybody, right?Ryan Schonfeld: Yeah. I think as security people, and ex-cops, and ex-feds, and ex-military, we tend to operate in silos, we tend to keep things close to us in terms of what we're doing, and what our programs are, and what's entailed, and we do a very bad job of marketing security to the organization and letting people know what's actually going on.Because the reality is, as you start marketing your initiatives, security's going to have different visibility within the organization, people are going to find more value, other departments are going to find more value. You might find a bigger budget in terms of cross department budgeting, if you can provide actual tangible value to other departments. As I alluded to earlier too, security leaders are really going to be seen more as thought leaders and business leaders with a seat at the table.
