Podcasts about trustworthy computing

Tom Gallagher, VP of Engineering and head of MSRC, joins Wendy Zenone and Nic Fillingham on this week's episode of The BlueHat Podcast. After nearly 25 years at Microsoft, Tom reflects on his early days at the company, where he started as a penetration tester on SharePoint, offering insights into the evolving landscape of cybersecurity since 1999. Tom shares a few different experiences from his journey, including auditing a local ISP's security in exchange for a job, and his transition from an intern working on Internet Explorer's rendering engine to key roles in Office and eventually MSRC. Through Tom's experiences, you'll gain a unique perspective on Microsoft's cybersecurity evolution and the broader industry landscape. In This Episode You Will Learn: A Clippy vulnerability that exemplifies the importance of external insights How you can support teams when they find vulnerabilities in their code Tom's experiences attending early Black Hat and DEFCON conferences Some Questions We Ask: How does your experience as a bug hunter influence your role at MSRC? Can you elaborate on the process of mitigating vulnerabilities quickly within SFI? Will you explain Trustworthy Computing and its significance in Microsoft's history?

In this podcast Adam Boileau and Tom Uren talk about Microsoft's Secure Future Initiative. It's been likened to the company's 2002 Trustworthy Computing initiative, but compared to that it is a massive disappointment. They also discuss how the European-wide police operation against EncroChat unravelled when a UK intelligence analyst warned her friends with criminal links that the service had been compromised.

Windows 11 Microsoft to bring Copilot to Windows 10 too. As predicted, actually. Last week was hell trying to figure out how/where people could get 23H2. Turns out, there's a reason. Microsoft is terrible. A Microsoft employee notably—offered some clarity on the 23H2 rollout. 23H2 is available via the ISO download or Installation Assistant, as Paul noted last week. 23H2 is NOT available via the Media Creation Tool, as Paul also observed — delayed two weeks. Canary build today: SMB changes (Server Message Block, not small business). Microsoft deprecated some features in Windows 11 version 23H2 but didn't remove any (yet?).

A short podcast updating listeners on the security news of the last few days, as prepared by Catalin Cimpanu. You can find the newsletter version of this podcast here.

How much economic ignorance can you fit into 1 minute and 54 seconds? Well apparently its quite a lot. Peter Zeihan confidently embarrassed himself on Joe Rogan's podcast recently by going on a short rip regarding Bitcoin's negative value and how a reliable, fixed money causes economic disaster but the inflated, debt drowned political currency is more valuable. And how counterfeiters have rightfully earned the wealth they steal, but savers gaining some purchasing power as the economy grows is "unviable." We dive into a short clip of Peter Zeihan and take it apart, piece by ignorant piece, in today's Guy's Take episode. Strap in. Here are the links to so many other reads for diving further into these economic ideas if you want a deeper understanding.

"As the crypto industry makes progress toward Web 3.0, we'll come to realize that it's hard to beat the security and network effects of Bitcoin." - Muneeb Ali Another great article from Bitcoin Magazine, this one by the founder of Blockstack, Muneeb Ali, on the superior security and foundation that Bitcoin can provide to Web 3.0. How its perceived "limitations," may be what makes it the best foundation we could have. It also sparks a long Guy's Rant on the value of on-chain vs off-chain contracts, the doubts on the "tokenization of everything," & why smart contracts are only as good as the token they contract in (not the other way round). This isn't to be missed.

“Beware of what I call Pascal's scams: movements or belief systems that ask you to hope for or worry about very improbable outcomes that could have very large positive or negative consequences.” - Nick Szabo Another amazing piece from the Unenumerated blog by Nick Szabo that explains a class of doomsday and utopia predictions he refers to as “Pascal's Scams.” How it can appear rational to worry or hope for extremely improbable outcomes. We read part 1 & 2 together and then talk about how this perspective could change our view of these crazy times. Don't miss it.

In our 141st episode of the Steptoe Cyberlaw Podcast, Stewart Baker, Michael Vatis, and Maury Shenk discuss: Umbrella agreement passes European Parliament; Investigatory Powers Act gains royal assent; Trump says Department of Defense will protect civilian infrastructure, Cyber Command elevated, Firing Adm. Michael Rogers?; Department of Justice and a boatload of other countries sinkhole "Avalanche" botnet; Sen. John Cornyn holds off left/libertarian attackers to keep Rule 41 changes; CFIUS halts Chinese acquisition; National Commission delivers recommendations; Saudi Arabia suffers major Iranian attack. Our interview is with Corporate Vice President for Trustworthy Computing at Microsoft, Scott Charney. The views expressed in this podcast are those of the speakers and do not reflect the opinions of the firm.

There is a clear connection between software piracy and malware, increasing the risk of cybersecurity issues. Cybercrime and efforts to illegally profit from pirated software have become increasingly sophisticated, and Microsoft continues to evolve its technology and tactics to protect its customers, partners and Intellectual Property. IDC research clearly shows that malware in pirated software can be a lucrative venture for cybercrime, and a financial hazard for customers and enterprises. Microsoft is continuously investing in its Digital Crimes Unit, and Cybercrime Center, to reduce global cybersecurity threats and cybercrime to create a safer computing experience for consumers. Microsoft believes it has a corporate responsibility to develop secure software systems and to help protect the Internet from cybercriminals – all part of its “Trustworthy Computing” pledge. Microsoft reminds people to ask questions, investigate packaging, beware of “too good to be true” prices, and ensure genuine software is kept current with the latest updates.

Mark Russinovich returns to the show to talk about his new book Trojan Horse and discuss the world of cyberwarfare and malware in general. After scaring the heck out of us with the potential exploitation of computing out there today, the conversation turns to solutions. Mark points out how the white listing approach of iOS and the Apple App Store has been so effective in keeping malware off iOS devices that it is being emulated everywhere, including Microsoft. Richard also pokes at Mark's role around Azure and the cloud - is that where the next generation of exploits will come?

Synopsis Greetings fans, this episode promises to be a great one with the likes of Adam Shostack starting off talking about what the whole concept of "New School Security" is all about, and how it differs from the way we've all done it for the past 15+ years.  Adam and I talked through some new interesting ideas for moving the information security community and discipline forward, and even commented on how we can start to overcome the security community's focus on 'secrecy' when things go wrong.  How do security professionals understand what the desired outcomes should be, then start to move towards implemting pragmatic approaches to move closer to those desired outcomes - because in the end it's really about business and getting it done, not about 'security'. You will be sorry if you miss this episode! Guest Adam Shostack - Adam Shostack is a principal program manager on the Usable Security team in Trustworthy Computing. As part of ongoing research into classifying and quantifying how Windows machines get compromised, he recently led the drive to change Autorun functionality on pre-Win7 machines; the update has so far improved the protection of nearly 400 million machines from attack via USB. Prior to Usable Security, he drove the SDL Threat Modeling Tool and the Elevation of Privilege threat modeling game as a member of the SDL core team. Before joining Microsoft, Adam was a leader of successful information security and privacy startups, and helped found the CVE, the Privacy Enhancing Technologies Symposium and the International Financial Cryptography Association. He is co-author of the widely acclaimed book, The New School of Information Security. Links Adam on Twitter: @AdamShostack The New School Security blog: http://newschoolsecurity.com/

This presenation will offer a technical overview of the security engineering process behind Windows Vista. Windows Vista is the first end-to-end major OS release in the Trustworthy Computing era from Microsoft. Come see how we’ve listened to feedback from the security community and how we’ve changed how we engineer our products as a result. The talk covers how the Vista engineering process is different from Windows XP, details from the largest-commercial-pentest-in-the-world, and a sneak peek at some of the new mitigations in Vista that combat memory overwrite vulnerabilities. It includes behind the scenes details you won’t hear anywhere else.

You’ve heard about Trustworthy Computing and you’ve seen some security improvements from Microsoft. You may have wondered-"is this change real or is it just lip service?" You may also have asked yourself "self, why did they do that?" This presentation will give you an historical and current view of the changes Microsoft has made and our policies and procedures that deliver more secure products and improved security response. This promises to be a lively and entertaining talk illustrated with actual examples of these policies and procedures from Windows Vista and recent security updates. Andrew Cushman, Director, Security Engineering, Response and Outreach - is responsible for Microsoft's outreach to the security community and has overall responsibility for the BlueHat conference. Andrew is a member of Microsoft's Security Engineering leadership team whose current top priority is the security of Windows Vista. Cushman was the Group Manager for the IIS team and was instrumental in shipping IIS versions 4, 5, and 6.0. Way back in the day he started his 16 year career at Microsoft testing international versions of Publisher, Money, Works and Flight Simulator."
