CISO Perspectives (public)

This season on CISO Perspectives, host Kim Jones explores some of the challenges of leading through uncertainty. We explore the complexity of the changing nature of regulation and working with the federal government, the evolution of privacy and fraud, and how emerging technologies like AI and quantum computing are changing cyber. When you don’t know what questions to ask, you’re afraid to ask, or don’t know who to ask, CISO Perspectives provides the foundation for learning in this brave new

Resilience Case Study: Chaos Engineering.

CISO Perspectives (public) ·

2023/03/13

Chaos Engineering started in the mid 2000s. It was made famous by the Netflix engineering team under an internal app they developed, called Chaos Monkey, that randomly destroyed pieces of their customer-facing infrastructure, on purpose, so that their network architects could understand resilience engineering down deep in their core. But the concept is much more than simply destroying production systems to see what will happen. This elevates the idea of regression testing to the level of the

Intelligence sharing: A Rick the Toolman episode.

CISO Perspectives (public) ·

2023/02/27

Since the early 2000s, most infosec practitioners have agreed that a public/private partnership to share threat intelligence is a cybersecurity first principle tactic. Since the first CERT in the late 1980s to the CISA Shields Up program this year (2022), the community has come a long way but it's safe to say that there is much room for improvement. In this Rick the Toolman episode, we discuss the history and current state of information sharing and where it needs to go in the future. Learn more

Software Defined Perimeter (SDP): A Rick the Toolman...

CISO Perspectives (public) ·

2023/02/13

Zero trust is a cybersecurity first principle strategy. Key to deploying a robust program is the Identity and Access Management tactic (IAM). The old perimeter defense model, designed in the 1990s, where network architects allowed good guys (and bad guys) through the perimeter to validate IAM policy seems ridiculous in hindsight. The new model, Software Defined Perimeter (SDP), is not as well known but is probably a better design. In this episode, Rick Howard discusses the history and current

Two-factor authentication: A Rick the Toolman episode.

CISO Perspectives (public) ·

2023/02/06

In 1995, AT&T patented the idea of two-factor authentication (2FA). They said that to identify an authorized user, a system needed to check at least two of three factors: something they have, something they are, or something they know. But the early systems were clunky, hard to manage, and only used in environments that needed the most security. Today, the industry has come a long way and there are several different choices for 2FA with some more secure than others: SMS, Email, Authenticator Soft

2023/01/30

Single Sign-On (SSO) in the real world is complicated and messy and how we got there is a byzantine maze of innovation and standards that has taken years. But, if zero trust is the first principle strategy we are all trying to pursue, getting Identity and Access Management (IAM) right is the most important tactic. And, SSO is a piece of the entire Identity and Access Management puzzle. Rick summarizes the history and current state of Single Sign-On with some Rick the Toolman thrown in. Learn more

One way to reduce the risk of software supply chains is with a concept called a Software Bill of Materials (SBOMs). Standards bodies have been slowly working in the background for the past decade to move this concept into reality. On this episode Rick Howard discusses the current state of SBOMs, and throws some Rick the Toolman in as well. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Security infrastructure as code.

CISO Perspectives (public) ·

2022/12/19

We’ve been wrestling with the idea of software development methodologies (Waterfall, Agile), infrastructure-as-code (cloud deployments, DevOps, DevSecOps) and coding best practices (OWASP, BSIMMS, SAMM) going on for two decades now. These are not independent systems. They overlap and interact. Up to this point, at least for the security side, they have been manual tasks, toil, that are prone to mistakes. We all know that automation can reduce the impact, at least be consistent with mistakes we make,
