Lots of companies need cybersecurity programs, as do non-profits. Tyler Von Moll talks about how to get small organizations started on security and how to prioritize initial investments. While an appsec program likely isn't going to be one of the first steps, it's going to be an early one. What decisions can you make at the start that will benefit the program in the years that follow? What does an appsec program look like at a small scale?

A majority of internet traffic now originates from APIs, and cybercriminals are taking advantage. Increasingly, APIs are used as a common attack vector because they’re a direct pathway to access sensitive data. In this discussion, Lebin Cheng shares what API attack trends Imperva, a Thales Company has observed over the past year, and what steps organizations can take to protect their APIs.

When you think of executive protection, you think of work related activities such as security details, travel planning, and other physical security protections. But in the world of Artificial Intelligence and DeepFakes, the risk landscape for executives goes far beyond work and into their personal lives. The home is now the new battle field and family life will never be the same.
Chris Pierson, CEO at BlackCloak, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss the changes in the risk landscape for executives, including Generative AI, and its impacts on social engineering, personal attacks, and family threats. Executive protection must now include digital protection, both at work and at home.

Defenders spend a lot of time and money procuring and implementing security controls. At the heart of SecOps and the SOC are technologies like XDR, SIEM, and SOAR. How do we know these technologies are going to detect or prevent attacks?
Wait for the annual pen test? Probably not a good idea.
In this segment, we'll talk with Michael Mumcuoglu about how MITRE's ATT&CK framework can help defenders better prepare for inevitable attack TTPs they'll have knocking on their doors.

Public information about exploits and vulnerabilities alone is not enough to inform prioritization, especially with the growing rate and variety of CVEs. Dan DeCloss, founder and CTO of PlexTrac, joins the show to discuss solving the challenges of risk prioritization to drive faster, more strategic assessment cycles. Spoiler: The key is adding context and prioritization to risk-scoring equations.

The need for vuln management programs has been around since the first bugs -- but lots of programs remain stuck in the past. We talk about the traps to avoid in VM programs, the easy-to-say yet hard-to-do foundations that VM programs need, and smarter ways to approach vulns based in modern app development. We also explore the ecosystem of acronyms around vulns and figure out what's useful (if anything) in CVSS, SSVC, EPSS, and more.

The SEC's new cyber reporting requirements are forcing organizations to rethink their compliance and risk programs. No longer can compliance and risk be static, point in time assessments. Instead they need to match the speed of security which is dynamic and real-time. Couple the difference in speeds with whistleblowers and attack groups reporting non-compliance with the new SEC rules and organizations find themselves in a regulatory nightmare.
Igor Volovich, VP of Compliance Strategy for Cyber Compliance at Qmulos, joins BSW to share his "Notes from the battlefield" on how automation is the only way to effectively converge security, risk, and compliance into a dynamic, real-time discipline.
