“It's Not the Flashy Vulnerabilities—It's the Ones You Miss”: SonicWall's Douglas McKee on Prioritizing Cybersecurity at RSA, Podcast

Telecom Reseller

Play Episode Listen Later May 2, 2025


SAN FRANCISCO — RSA Conference 2025 "Sixty percent of the attacks we're tracking target low-profile vulnerabilities—things like privilege escalation and security bypasses, not the headline-making zero days," says Douglas McKee, Executive Director of Threat Research at SonicWall. Speaking live from the show floor at RSA 2025, McKee outlined how SonicWall is helping partners prioritize threats that are actually being exploited, not just those getting attention. In a fast-paced conversation with Technology Reseller News publisher Doug Green, McKee unveiled SonicWall's upcoming Managed Prevention Security Services (MPSS). The offering is designed to help reduce misconfigurations—a leading cause of breaches—by assisting with firewall patching and configuration validation. SonicWall is also collaborating with CySurance to package cyber insurance into this new managed service, providing peace of mind and operational relief to MSPs and customers alike. “Over 95% of the incidents we see are due to human error,” McKee noted. “With MPSS, we're stepping in as a partner to reduce that risk.” McKee also previewed an upcoming threat brief focused on Microsoft vulnerabilities, revealing an 11% year-over-year increase in attacks. Despite attention on high-profile CVEs, SonicWall's data shows attackers often rely on under-the-radar vulnerabilities with lower CVSS scores. For MSPs, McKee shared a stark warning: nearly 50% of the organizations SonicWall monitors are still vulnerable to decade-old exploits like Log4j and Heartbleed. SonicWall's telemetry-driven insights allow MSPs to focus remediation on widespread, high-impact threats. SonicWall's transformation from a firewall vendor to a full-spectrum cybersecurity provider was on display at RSA Booth #6353 (North Hall), where the company showcased its SonicSensory MDR, cloud offerings, and threat intelligence. "We've evolved into a complete cybersecurity partner," McKee said. "Whether it's in the cloud or on-prem, we're helping MSPs and enterprises defend smarter." Visitors to the SonicWall booth were treated to live presentations and fresh coffee—while those not attending can explore SonicWall's insights, including its February 2024 Threat Report and upcoming threat briefs, at www.sonicwall.com.

Forecast = Expect a storm of insights as we tackle cybersecurity's cloudy diversity gaps, edge device downpours, and ransomware winds blowing from Black Basta! ‍ In this episode of Storm⚡️Watch, we kick things off with an insightful interview with Mary N. Chaney, the CEO of Minorities in Cybersecurity (MiC). MiC is a groundbreaking organization dedicated to addressing the lack of support and representation for women and minority leaders in cybersecurity. Mary shares how MiC is building a community that fosters leadership development and equips members with essential skills for career advancement. We also discuss the alarming statistics that highlight the underrepresentation of minorities in cybersecurity leadership roles and explore how MiC's programs, like The MiC Inclusive Community™ and The MiC Leadership Series™, are making a tangible difference. Next, the crew descends into a critical discussion about edge security products, drawing on insights from Censys. These devices, while vital for network protection, are increasingly becoming prime targets for attackers. We examine recent vulnerabilities added to CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, including flaws in products from Palo Alto Networks and SonicWall, and explore how state-sponsored actors like Salt Typhoon are exploiting these weaknesses. The conversation underscores the importance of proactive patch management and tools like attack surface monitoring to mitigate risks. In the next segment, we analyze leaked chat logs from the Black Basta ransomware group with insights from VulnCheck. These logs reveal how Black Basta prioritizes vulnerabilities in widely used enterprise technologies, their rapid response to new advisories, and even their pre-publication knowledge of certain CVEs. We break down their strategy for selecting targets based on financial viability, industry focus, and vulnerability presence, offering actionable advice for defenders to stay ahead. Finally, we turn our attention to GreyNoise's recent observations of active exploitation campaigns targeting Cisco vulnerabilities by Salt Typhoon, a Chinese state-sponsored group. Using data from GreyNoise's global observation grid, we discuss how legacy vulnerabilities like CVE-2018-0171 remain valuable tools for advanced threat actors. This segment highlights the importance of patching unaddressed issues and leveraging real-time threat intelligence to protect critical infrastructure.
