A conversation with Kristin Judge | CEO/President of the Cybercrime Support Network

It seems to me that we have a long way to go before the general population and small businesses become aware of the very likely risk of becoming victims of cybercrime. While there are many things that can be done to reduce the risk — the “100% safe” scenario is a myth — we certainly cannot expect (at this time) that someone or something is going to take those steps for us.

A conversation with Sarah Squire Senior Technical Architect at Ping Identity

Times have changed quite a bit since cybersecurity wasn’t even a word. Now it is most definitely a thing, a problem, a cost, and also a value. 

The fact that cybersecurity sounds boring and the fact that it is mostly perceived as a cost doesn’t help your chance for success.

But is that true?

The National Cyber Security Alliance (NCSA) put on another incredible Data Privacy Day event comprised of a number of panels and presentations and even some live audience engagement, including some questions from our own Sean Martin. As a proud media partner for this important event, ITSPmagazine’s Sean Martin captured some pictures and put out a few tweets as well.

In this episode, Sean Martin connects with Aaron Guzman and Daniel Miessler, and we take a look at the new edition of the OWASP Top 10 for the Internet of Things. The project, which began in 2014, contains a lot of work related to identifying the risks, vulnerabilities, and controls necessary to safely deploy and use Internet-connected devices at work, at home, and in society. Aaron and Daniel walk us through the top 10 list, giving us some insight into each item and how it can have an impact on the how things are built, implemented, and broken.

AppSec California 2019 brought together nearly 600 attendees to discuss application, web, and device security challenges, successes, and best practices. ITSPmagazine was there and captured a few pictures from the event.

So many things to see and so little time on our side – and we are not just talking about San Francisco. RSA Conference 2019 offers a wide variety of attractions if, like us, you are into cybersecurity matters.

On this page, we will report about our plans once we arrive in the City of Fog.

A conversation with Kathleen Smith

On this conversation Selena Templeton will help me dig into a subject that is very dear to Kathleen: the importance of volunteering in the cybersecurity community as an opportunity for learning new technical and non-technical skills that benefit personal growth and support career advancement.

Volunteering is good for the people who do it and for the company that supports it.

A conversation with Howard A. Miller and Sandra Lollino

We discuss the consequences of a cyberattack on individuals and families as it goes way beyond the material financial damage, and we wonder if the option of enrolling in cyber insurance protection is going to help increase cyber awareness or make it worse and further numb us all?

As part of ITSPmagazine’s “Share Your Own Story” initiative, Avishag Daniely, Director of Product Management at Guardicore, shares her story about the intersection of diversity, technology, life, and the challenges and inspirations she encountered along her journey into cybersecurity.

In this episode, we look at the Verizon Data Breach Digest cases and how they can help organizations operationalize their risk and security management programs. John Grim from Verizon paints some visual pictures for us to chew on, breaking down how the attacks originate, how the target is reached, how the internal victims and stakeholders are impacted, how companies can respond, and how non-victim organizations can prepare and protect their business from a similar attack.
