The Department of Defense (DoD) is implementing a 3rd Party Supply Chain Risk Management program that will require companies that receive their sensitive information to implement NIST SP 800-171 and then undergo a 3rd Party Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) event. This podcast will discuss the ripple effects of the requirements and the extent of the impacts. Speakers: Matthew Titco...

Password Managers are required by for employees at most companies, but are they designed to encourage good password hygiene? We conducted a comprehensive study with users who trusts the most popular passwords managers offered in the industry. We discovered that many users are still ignoring password reset notification from their Password Managers and aim to explain why that is the case. Speakers:...

Well-known frameworks and lots of advice exist to help people protect data, privacy, and devices, but minimize the implication of human factors. This podcast will discuss the PCSF and highlight the ways in which it will help organizations move one step closer to having people recognized as the new enterprise edge. The PCSF complements, and does not replace, an organization’s risk management proces...

The cybersecurity community has had lots of conversations about workforce development, but it's time to take action. Learn about the efforts to bring cybersecurity education to the K-12 sector as part of the effort to narrow the skills gap and build the next generation of cyber defenders. Speakers: Laurie Salvail, Executive Director, CYBER.ORG Kacy Zurkus, Senior Content Manager, RSA Conference

In order to mitigate the risks in telehealth devices, healthcare delivery organizations need to identify threats. Join this podcast to hear practical steps to implement a more robust security strategy rooted in standards and best practices that include how to use NIST Frameworks and the work being done by the NCCoE Healthcare team. Speakers: Anahi Santiago, CISO, ChristianaCare Kacy Zurkus, Senior...

The White House published the US National Cybersecurity Strategy that outlines a five-pillared approach to dismantling threat actors, enabling partnerships, and investing in resilience. But what does all that mean for cyber defenders? This podcast will examine the strategy in depth to help listeners both realize the vision and understand roles, responsibilities, and resources in cyber. Speakers: B...

Within the last decade, fraud and cyberattacks have become increasingly focused on exploiting digital identity. The exposure of digital identity as an attack surface has implications for individuals, enterprises, and even our societal structures. In this session we discuss the state of identity-based attack vectors and what the security community is doing to address them. Speakers: Gadalia Montoya...

In the story of Gyge’s Ring, Plato asserts that if humans had the power to be invisible, they would act without consequence. In his book, Tracers in the Dark: The Global Hunt for the Crime Lords of Cryptocurrency, Greenberg details the truth of Plato’s claim as he recounts stories of criminal activity on the dark web, where people believed they were acting anonymously without the risk of getting c...

Intrigued by the dark web payment card landscape? Join us for this RSAC 365 podcast to hear about how the dark web payment card landscape was affected by the Russia-Ukraine war, exploring everything from the magecart infections/e-skimmers, which are used to steal the payment card data to “checkers”, which are tools used by cybercriminals to check the stolen payment cards for validity and 3-D bypas...

Cybersecurity and the resiliency of space assets are a priority because of the critical infrastructure services they provide. This session will discuss the attack vectors and mitigation approaches of exploits that can impact them as well as how the cyber security and space asset resiliency range will be used to test and validate their confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Speakers: Barbara...

In this podcast, we will uncover the realities of insecure control systems software in critical infrastructure. From discovering zero-days to exposing vulnerabilities in built-in features, we'll explore the role of both vendors and operators in safeguarding our essential utilities. By the end, listeners will have a new perspective on the need to implement strong security practices into the foundat...

There is a general lack of quantum risk awareness among board members. The emergence of powerful quantum computers are an impending threat to our digital ecosystems — e.g. mobile phones and internet — because they can conceivably crack classical encryption. A quantum algorithm with that capability already exists; yet, quantum risk management is not a standard topic discussed at board meetings. Spe...

Ransomware Operators have not only increased the ransoms they demand but are also using additional coercion techniques to perform multifaceted extortion attacks. Between us, we have worked on several ransomware incidents observing closely the challenges that organizations face while battling and remediating ransomware incidents. Based on the learnings from responding to such incidents, we will sha...

Most organizations have moved beyond the insecure username and password access control a long time ago and started using multifactor authentication. But as Yahoo, Deloitte, and LinkedIn know, MFA won’t always save the company from a data breach. Not only has MFA access been defeated multiple times by attackers, but users hate it. It’s cumbersome, annoying, increasingly exploitable. In this podcast...

In the same way that the tango begins with foundational steps, the layering of device, application/workload, and user identity forms the foundation of Zero Trust security. Each intentional step weaving to create an intricately coordinated pattern. Join us as we take a look at the cryptographic dance between keys and identity that forms the basis of and maintains Trust in a Zero Trust world. Speake...

Security analysts must fight both attackers and the products and services they rely on to drive their detection and response capabilities because of a lack of usability of security tools and processes. This podcast explains an emerging cybersecurity technology trend: analyst experience (AX). Join us to understand how AX can enable your team to find more effective security tools, build better workf...

Back in 2017 New America and The Christian Science Monitor hosted then 14-year-old and CEO of VannTechCyber LLC, Paul Vann. He was indeed a rising star in the field, but where is Vann now? Join this RSAC 365 podcast as we shine a spotlight on the making of a cyber professional. We’ll feature Paul Vann, who’s now a senior at the University of Virginia and a Developer at Cyborg Security. Vann will i...

When it comes to defending critical infrastructure from cyber threats, understanding the threat landscape is critical to assessing risk and implementing a robust security strategy. Threat intelligence enables organizations to identify and react to threats, and we know that having the right attack surface intelligence informs the processes and procedures needed to quickly recover. Yet, intelligence...

Congress has tried for years to pass a comprehensive federal data privacy and security law without success, which impacts consumers, industry, and security. Meanwhile, other countries and multiple U.S. states have moved forward with laws. However, the bipartisan, bicameral American Data Privacy and Protection Act (ADPPA) could be an opportunity to change this. This podcast will cover why data priv...

While there seems to be a growing awareness of the threats to the cyber-physical world with cybercriminals increasingly targeting industrial organizations within critical infrastructure, are current investments, regulations, and actions enough to stop attackers. In this podcast, we’ll have a follow up Q&A to the RSAC 2022 session, “The Cyber Physical War—Lessons from the Digital Front Line,” to un...

We live very “smart” lives equipped to stay connected anywhere, any time. Getting connected is easy, securing it may be a fool’s errand if not approached properly. Say goodbye to the days of signature-based detection and say hello to IoT data anomaly and volatility predictive analysis for advanced “on the go” monitoring, detection and response. In this podcast, we will discuss novel approaches in...

Our world is becoming increasingly interconnected and more interdependent than ever before. We continue to see an increase in cybercrime, which brings us to an inflection point - who's responsible for addressing security in our integrated digital world and what should be the role of policymakers and industry regulators in promoting good cyber hygiene and incentivizing collaboration?
