Back to (or Start) Fundamentals? - Rajesh Khazanchi - PSW #923
This week: Larry's in the host seat and chaos ensues. We dig into: A very questionable story about tracking a warship with a $5 Bluetooth tracker Serial-to-IP devices quietly sitting in critical infrastructure… and full of holes New York regulators mandating MFA and asset inventory—aka CIS Control #1 is now breaking news A ransomware negotiator who decided to double-dip (and landed in prison) "Brand new" hard drives that come preloaded… with someone else's data The Vercel breach: no zero-day, just shadow IT, stolen tokens, and bad decisions AI-driven vulnerability discovery and the looming "vulnpocalypse" Quantum crypto debates: real threat or just another security boogeyman? Mirai is STILL alive—because apparently we still don't patch routers And yes… Flipper Zero makes an appearance (no, you're not hacking airplanes… calm down) Then, we rebroadcast an interview from RSAC. Breach Readiness for Measurable Risk Reduction in the Age of AI Cyber leaders no longer debate whether a breach will occur. What has changed is the speed and scale at which AI now enables those breaches. The real question is how far an attacker can move once inside. In this conversation, Rajesh Khazanchi explores why breach readiness, including AI-assisted containment, measurable blast radius reduction, and pervasive microsegmentation, has become mission-critical for business continuity in 2026.

Scanning The Internet with Linux Tools - PSW #919
In this segment, we will explore some pretty awesome tools for scanning the Internet, with a focus on network edge devices. We'll bring it all together with Claude Code and look at some sample results. Tools include: Shodan | Passive recon — query existing scan data for exposed devices, services, and vulns | Passive (API) | Instant (no packets sent) ZMap | Host discovery — find live hosts with open ports | L4 (TCP SYN, UDP, ICMP) | Millions of packets/sec ZGrab2 | Application-layer handshakes — grab banners, certs, headers | L7 (30+ protocol modules) | Thousands of hosts/sec Nerva | Service fingerprinting — identify 140+ protocols with metadata, CPEs, technology stacks | L7 (TCP, UDP, SCTP) | Fast, concurrent Nuclei | Template-based vulnerability scanning — default creds, exposed panels, known CVEs | L7 (HTTP, network) | Hundreds of targets/min Shannon | Vulnerability exploitation — AI-powered whitebox pentesting of web apps | Application | ~1-1.5 hrs per target edgescan.py | Automated pipeline — orchestrates all tools above into a single command | Orchestration | End-to-end Show Notes: https://securityweekly.com/psw-919
