It doesn't matter how much security technology you have, how much you spend on security: security outcomes are achieved by doing all the little things right. You can spend $10M on network security technology from any vendor, but you will fail to effectively secure your enterprise if you don't properly manage the policy enforced by those firewalls. That sounds really simple, but simple doesn't scale. If you only have a few firewalls with policies consisting of tens of rules, it may be simple. But imagine an enterprise that has 2,000 firewalls, each firewall has a policy with an average of 500 rules, each rule has an average of 15 objects, each source and destination object represent an average of 50 IP addresses. This enterprise is managing, 2,000 firewalls, 1 million rules, 125 million connections, representing over 300 billion access paths. And just 1 wrong rule could expose the network to compromise.

Cybersecurity is a large and often complex domain, traditionally focused on the infrastructure and general information security, with little or no attention to Application Security. Security providers usually tack-on AppSec services to their existing menu of offering without understanding the domain, and their team of professionals have little or no experience with software development or inner workings of modern application architectures. As the world turns Digital at a rapid pace accelerated by the recent pandemic, applications become common place in our lives, providing attackers more opportunities to exploit these poorly protected applications. As such, it is important to know what is actually required to build and run software securely, and how to do application security right.

There's a LOT of noise in the security industry. We've catalogued over 10,000 cybersecurity products and each of the companies behind these products has a marketing team, a twitter account, a blog, and a ton of content to blast at enterprise security buyers. There's an interesting connection between GreyNoise's product, founder, and principles. While building a product that filtered out the noise that wastes most security operations teams' time, Andrew was dead set against building a startup that resembled the typical security startup. We'll discuss Andrew's unique path to market, the latest features of GreyNoise, and where the lines are drawn between malicious and benign scanning.

In a world with rapidly-changing technology, it can be tempting to constantly reach for the newest, shiniest security tools/techniques at both the program management and engineering levels. But even given unusual circumstances like startup hypergrowth or Web3 applications, sometimes we should focus on more basic issues. We can learn a lot about where to start with some of these basics when thinking about recent current events, especially related to widely-reported vulnerabilities or specific security incidents.

Something is seriously wrong with our current approach to cybersecurity––the more we spend, the worse the situation becomes. In an industry plagued by a chronic talent shortage, one thing is clear: simply throwing another tool in the mix isn’t the path to better security. If we’re going to solve the security paradox, we’re going to need a cross-functional, in-depth analysis of the problem and a structured approach to fixing it. Michael McPherson joins Business Security Weekly to share tactical questions that security leaders can ask themselves and their teams in order to build a better overall approach to defense.
