A big part of preparing for Security Weekly news segments is reading press releases. Most of us also get emails whenever a cybersecurity vendor sends out a press release. Too many are frivolous, full of hyperbole, or just plain unreadable. We talk about why so many press releases are like this (there are legit reasons!) and how they could be improved.
What's wrong with press releases?
1. Frivolous Press Releases
2. Unintelligible Press Releases
3. Bending the Truth
4. Excessive hyperbole; death by adjective
5. FUD
Why are they like this?
1. Feeding the SEO beast
2. Written by committee
3. Need to appear successful
4. Need to show growth/progress
5. Need to differentiate from the competition
6. "if it bleeds it leads"
Fixing Press Releases
- When should you put out a press release?
- What should go into a press release?
- How should you write a press release?

There are many options to choose from when setting up The Security Onion. The use cases are vast, including a NIDS (Zeek, Suricata), HIDS (Beats, Wazuh, osquery) and standalone instances for a SOC workstation and static analysis. I really like SO as a platform to collect all kinds of data from the network and from your systems (some even use the word XDR).

Once again, it is Cybersecurity awareness month and we'll be talking with Ryan Kalember about the latest threats and other activities he and Proofpoint have going on this month. When it comes to threats, some tactics aren't changing, though they're still effective. There are some notable shifts though:
- Crews using Office 365 for lateral movement
- FIN7 reborn
- A sudden interest in exploits
- Increased patience and increased focus on the individual as the key to an attack
- SMB attacks look very different from large enterprise campaigns
