Setting up your SIEM for success - Pitfalls to preclude and tips to take - Neil Desai - ESW #400
A successful SIEM deployment depends on a lot more than implementing the SIEM correctly. So many other things in your environment have an impact on your chances of a successful SIEM. Are the right logs enabled? Is your EDR working correctly? Would you notice a sudden increase or decrease in events from critical sources? What can practitioners do to ensure the success of their SIEM deployment? This segment is sponsored by Graylog. Visit https://securityweekly.com/graylog to learn more about them!

We need better detection feedback loops - Michael Mumcuoglu - ESW #399
It feels like forever ago, but in the mid-2010s, we collectively realized, as an industry, that prevention was never going to be enough. Some attacks were always going to make their way through. Then ransomware got popular and really drove this point home. Detection engineering is a tough challenge, however. Where do we start? Which attacks should we build detections for? How much of the MITRE ATT&CK matrix do we need to cover? How often do these detections need to be reviewed and updated? Wait, are any of our detections even working? In this interview with Michael Mumcuoglu, we'll discuss where SecOps teams get it wrong. We'll discuss common pitfalls, and strategies for building more resilient and effective detections. Again, as an industry, we need to understand why ransomware attacks keep going unnoticed, despite attackers using routine techniques and tools that we see over and over and over again.

Building the SOC of the Future - JP Bourget - ESW #399
What does a mature SecOps team look like? There is pressure to do more with less staff, increase efficiency and reduce costs. JP Bourget's experience has led him to believe that the answer isn't a tool upgrade, it's better planning, architecture, and process. In this interview, we'll discuss some of the common mistakes SecOps teams make, and where to start when building the SOC of the future. Show Notes: https://securityweekly.com/esw-399

Your Cloud is a Mess, and We Explore 5 Reasons Why - Marina Segal - ESW #398
It takes months to get approvals and remediate cloud issues. It can take months to fix even critical vulnerabilities! How could this be? I thought the cloud was the birthplace of agile/DevOps, and everything speedy and scalable in IT? How could cloud security be struggling so much? In this interview we chat with Marina Segal, the founder and CEO of Tamnoon - a company she founded specifically to address these problems. Segment Resources: Gartner prediction: By 2025, 75% of new CSPM purchases will be part of an integrated CNAPP offering.

Penetration Tests: useful, pointless, harmful, required, ineffective? - Phillip Wylie - ESW #398
Penetration tests are probably the most common and recognized cybersecurity consulting services. Nearly every business above a certain size has had at least one pentest by an external firm. Here's the thing, though - the average ransomware attack looks an awful lot like the bog standard pentest we've all been purchasing or delivering for years. Yet thousands of orgs every year fall victim to these attacks. What's going on here? Why are we so bad at stopping the very thing we've been training against for so long? This Interview with Phillip Wylie will provide some insight into this! Spoiler: a lot of the issues we had 10, even 15 years ago remain today.

AlmaLinux and the State of Open Source Enterprise Linux - benny Vasquez - ESW #397
And now, for something completely different! I've always urged the importance for practitioners to understand the underlying technology that they're challenged with defending. When we're yelling at the Linux admins and DevOps folks to "just patch it", what does that process entail? How do those patches get applied? When and how are they released in the first place? This is often one of the sticking points when security folks get nervous about "going open source", as if 90% of the code in their environments doesn't already come from some open source project. It's a legitimate concern however - without a legal contract, and some comfort level that a paid support team is actually going to fix critical vulnerabilities, how do we develop trust or a relationship with an open source project? In this interview, benny Vasquez, the Chair of the board of directors for AlmaLinux, will fill in some of the gaps for us, and help us understand how an open source project can not only be trusted, but in many cases may be more responsive to security teams' needs than a commercial vendor.

Ransomware Attacks a Decade In: What Changed? What Didn't? - Mike Mitchell - ESW #397
2025 brings us close to an interesting milestone - ransomware attacks, in their current, enterprise-focused form, are almost a decade old. These attacks are so common today, it's impossible to report on all of them. There are signs of hope, however - ransomware payments are significantly down. There are also signs defenders are getting more resilient, and are recovering more quickly from these attacks. Today, with Intel471's Mike Mitchell, we'll discuss what defenders need to know to protect against today's ransomware attacks. He'll share some stories and anecdotes from his experiences with customers. He'll also share some tips, and tricks for successful hunts, and how to catch attacks before even your tools trigger alerts.

First Do No Harm - Security Challenges in Healthcare - Ed Gaudet - ESW #396
In 2011, Marc Andreessen predicted that software would eat the world. Specifically, the prediction was that software companies would take over the economy and disrupt all industries. The economic prediction has mostly come true, with 9 out of 10 of the most highly valued companies being tech companies. The industry disruption didn't materialize in some cases, and outright failed in others. Healthcare seems to be one of these 'disruption-resistant' areas. Ed joins us today to discuss why that might be, and what the paths towards securing the healthcare industry might look like.

Is Shift Left Just Starting to Catch On? And Other AppSec Trends & Insights - Jenn Gile - ESW #395
'Shift Left' feels like a cliché at this point, but it's often difficult to track tech and security movements if you aren't interacting with practitioners on a regular basis. Some areas of tech have a longer tail when it comes to late adopters and laggards, and application security appears to be one of these areas. In this interview, Jenn Gile catches us up on AppSec trends.

The Future of Cyber Regulation in the New Administration - Ilona Cohen - ESW #395
In this interview, we're excited to have Ilona Cohen to help us understand what changes this new US administration might bring, in terms of cybersecurity regulation. Ilona's insights come partially from her own experiences working from within the White House. Before she was the Chief Legal Officer of HackerOne, she was a senior lawyer to President Obama and served as General Counsel of the White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB). In this hyper-partisan environment, it's easy to get hung up on particular events. Do many of us lack cross-administration historical perspective? Probably. Should we be outraged by the disillusion of the CSRB, or was this a fairly ordinary occurrence when a new administration comes in? These are the kinds of questions I'll be posing to Ilona in this conversation. How the Change Healthcare breach can prompt real cybersecurity change Show Notes: https://securityweekly.com/esw-395

A SecOps Medley: we talk automation, AI, data management, and EDR evaluations - Allie Mellen - ESW #394
We couldn't decide what to talk to Allie about, so we're going with a bit of everything. Don't worry - it's all related and ties together nicely. First, we'll discuss AI and automation in the SOC - Allie is covering this trend closely, and we want to know if she's seeing any results yet here. Next, we'll discover SecOps data management - the blood that delivers oxygen to the SOC muscles. Finally, we'll discuss MITRE's recent EDR evaluations - there was some contention around some vendors claiming to ace the test and we're going to get the tea on what's really going on here! For each of these three topics, these are the blog posts they correspond with if you want to learn more: Generative AI Will Not Fulfill Your Autonomous SOC Hopes (Or Even Your Demo Dreams) If You're Not Using Data Pipeline Management For Security And IT, You Need To Go Beyond The MITRE ATT&CK Evaluation To The True Cost Of Alert Volumes Show Notes: https://securityweekly.com/esw-394

Evolving the SOC: Automating Manual Work while Maintaining Quality at Scale - Tim MalcomVetter - ESW #394
We've got a few compelling topics to discuss within SecOps today. First, Tim insists it's possible to automate a large amount of SecOps work, without the use of generative AI. Not only that, but he intends to back it up by tracking the quality of this automated work with an ISO standard unknown to cybersecurity. I've often found useful lessons and wisdom outside security, so I get excited when someone borrows from another, more mature industry to help solve problems in cyber. In this case, we'll be talking about Acceptable Quality Limits (AQL), an ISO standard quality assurance framework that's never been used in cyber. Segment Resources: Introducing AQL for cyber.
