Howdy, y'all!  Our guest today is Wade Baker, cybersecurity researcher, entrepreneur, professor…  Wade is a Board of Directors member of the FAIR Institute, was an Advisory Board Member at the RSA Conference, was VP of Strategy & Risk Analytics at ThreatConnect, and is now Co-Founder of Cyentia Institute, which aims to advance cybersecurity knowledge and practice through data-driven research.  Wade joins Drew and Allan to talk about (go figure!) data-driven cybersecurity.  The three smash through a lot of assumptions and get to the heart of what is really going on in cybersecurity. Questions covered: What is the Information Risk Insights Study (IRIS)? (cyentia.com/iris/) What is a good summary of the IRIS Ransomware report? How organizations out there can be more data-driven? Analyst whitepapers vs. real data research – what are the differences? Who else can mine data like this? What truths do people resist or what do they fail to embrace? What are the sacred cows and the “inflatable cows”? Is the cyber job shortage a real, data-backed problem? The desire for “flat math” vs. curves (the 5x5 grid) … Measuring the problem side vs the solution side… Actual best practices vs. common practices… Insurance industry data and why they don't share it… Much of what we do does not affect the realities of our cyber risk. Stepping back from all of this, what is the value in data-driven industry analysis of this sort? How does one sponsor IRIS publications? Y'all be good now!

To help us unpack it all we've invited Wade Baker, Co-Founder of Cyentia Institute – a leading firm focused on cybersecurity data-driven research.

Wade Baker and Ben Edwards of the Cyentia Institute join Dennis Fisher to discuss the process of designing and interpreting the data from the Cisco Security Outcomes study, what surprised them from the data, and how organizations can use the study.

We're joined today by Wade Baker, co-founder of Cyentia Institute (@wadebaker) and Wolfgang Goerlich (@jwgoerlich), Advisory CISO at Cisco, for a fun discussion on security outcomes.Wade and Wolf dissect the results from Cisco's 2021 Security Outcomes Study, which seeks to answer the ultimate question, "What actually works in cybersecurity?" using random sampling and statistical analysis. Together, we discuss how can we efficiently and effectively manage our cybersecurity risk, how is it that even the largest companies with the biggest security budgets still struggle to achieve certain outcomes, and with all the various options out there for achieving a successful cybersecurity program, which ones should practitioners focus on? New technology? More training? Better incident response procedures? Listen to find out!The full report can be downloaded for free from www.cisco.com/go/securityoutcomes

Listen in as Dr. Wade Baker and I talk about the origins and challenges of producing the very first of the Verizon Data Breach and Incident Reports (DBIR) in 2008. That experience taught Wade, who is a founding partner with the Cyentia Institute, a security research and data analysis firm, and who doubles as a professor in Virginia Tech’s College of Business while also serving on the Advisory Boards of the RSA Conference and FAIR Institute, the value in sharing and marketing data in the cybersecurity marketplace. It eventually led to the Cyentia Institute, where Wayne and his team help other vendors to create fact based research to support their go to market initiatives and content marketing. Wade is on a mission, as he puts it, to take Cybersecurity Marketing from “Dogma to Data”. Listen in as he shares how to do that and why he thinks it’s critical for vendors to do so. Wade of course still recommends your check out the Verizon DBIR  and also recommends The Craft of Research as must reading!
