In the Enterprise News: There's lots of executive shuffling going on! Saviynt gets a new CEO and $205M in funding, Forescout appoints its 4th CEO in as many years, and Mudge finds a place at Rapid 7. We've got some interesting trends, like more focus on securing small businesses, and more cybersecurity startups pairing technology with cyber insurance. It seems like only yesterday, we were shocked to hear that Microsoft was running a $10B security business, but Microsoft has apparently now grown security revenue to $20 BILLION DOLLARS. Also, Tyler explains what Herman Miller chairs have to do with spotting market trends, we note the 20 year anniversary of SQL Slammer, and discuss why consumers don’t want smart appliances shoved down their throats!

In a recent survey on purple teaming, 89 percent of respondents who had used the method deemed purple teaming activities “very important” to their security operations. Purple teaming exercises conducted regularly have the power to improve collaboration across teams, ensure issues are identified and remediated more proactively, and provide a means to measure progress over time. With all these benefits, why isn’t everyone doing it? Purple teaming doesn’t have to be such a heavy lift. With the right mindset and tools, any team can get started regardless of resources. This talk will highlight practical tips for getting started with purple teaming exercises and show off PlexTrac Runbooks, a platform designed to plan, execute, report, and remediate collaborative purple teaming engagements so teams can maximize their efforts and improve their security posture.
