    AI Governance, new book (Code War) from Allie Mellen, and the weekly news! - Jeremy Snyder, Allie Mellen - ESW #450

    Interview with Jeremy Snyder from FireTail about AI Governance Death by a thousand cuts: the AI shadow IT problem I think the best description of the AI governance problem during this interview was the title of the award-winning movie, Everything, Everywhere, All At Once. Generative AI has been disrupting businesses, products, and vendor risk management for a few years now. FireTail is one of the companies trying to address this problem for enterprises, so we check in with Jeremy Snyder to see how things are going. Segment 1 Resources: https://www.firetail.ai/ai-breach-tracker Interview with Allie Mellen about her new book, Code War: How Nations Hack, Spy, and Shape the Digital Battlefield We're VERY excited to check out Allie's new book, which will be released on St. Patrick's Day 2026! The timing could not be better, as her book is perfectly positioned to provide some much needed perspective on the cyber aspects of the ongoing war in Iran. Is it normal to see the use of wipers on healthcare companies in the midst of the conflict? Is there any precedent for hyperscaler datacenters getting targeted (some of AWS's EMEA regions are still recovering)? Check out the conversation to find out! Pick up the book! from Wiley from Barnes & Noble from Amazon Allie's personal website The Weekly Enterprise News Finally, in the enterprise security news, Vibes and funding! Starting to see some disruption in the vuln mgmt space (finally!) Tons of new free tools lots of essays lots of reports logs of breaches the talks our hosts are giving at RSAC conference and someone is selling an actual cone of silence???

    Exposed: Bank Leak, Copilot Zero-Click, AI Agent Hijacks, Stryker Wipe & Josh Marpet - SWN #563

    This episode is all about trust getting abused at scale. We start with Chinese-nexus operators pivoting fast onto Qatar using conflict lures and familiar tradecraft. Then we hit banking, because they deserve it: Lloyds, Halifax, and Bank of Scotland customers seeing other people's transactions in-app, a straight confidentiality failure, not "someone hacked my phone". From there it's the Middle East conflict exposing what "cloud resilience" really means when the problem isn't cyber, it's physical disruption and dependency chains. Then Meta's takedown of 150,000 scam-linked accounts shows the fraud supply chain is still running hot, and the platforms are now part of the battleground whether they like it or not. The Microsoft story is the one to watch: a critical Excel bug that turns Copilot Agent into a zero-click data leak path. And the AI agent theme keeps going with Context7: attackers slipping instructions into "helpful" context and getting agents to do dumb, destructive things on their behalf. We finish with Stryker having the worst day with a major outage, disputed claims, and a reminder that if your management plane gets hit, you can lose the whole estate fast. Look at Intune. No hype. Just the stuff that actually breaks systems, me talking too fast, which to be honest 'slow' is why I turn most podcasts off. Show Notes: https://securityweekly.com/swn-563

    Being Exploitable While Your Risk Tolerance Changes and You Unblock Innovation - Myke Lyons - BSW #438

    AI has created a dilemma for security teams. Attackers are using AI to develop exploits to newly disclosed vulnerabilities faster than security teams can patch them. Security teams have not fully leveraged the capabilities of AI to autonomously prevent these attacks. Without a radical change in approach, organizations will be exposed to an exponentially increasing attack surface. How long can your organization tolerate being exploitable? Myke Lyons, CISO at Cribl, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss why organizations need to embrace AI to understand the behavior of attacks to effectively prevent them. For decades, we've focused on the Indicators of Compromise (IoCs) and have played whack-a-mole to try and patch them. Instead, we should focus on the Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTPs) and leverage LLMs to understand the behavior of the attack. Once we understand the behaviors, we can implement preventative controls to minimize exposure. And yes, AI can also help us automate patching, when we're ready to trust it.

Does Your Leadership Team Know That? , The New Leadership Structures that Unblock Innovation, How CISOs can build a resilient workforce, and more! Show Notes: https://securityweekly.com/bsw-438

    Making Medical Devices Secure - Tamil Mathi - ASW #373

    Medical devices are a special segment of the IoT world where availability and patient safety are paramount. Tamil Mathi explains why many devices need to fail open -- the opposite of what traditional appsec approaches might initially think -- and what makes threat modeling these devices interesting and unique. He also covers how to get started in this space, from where to learn hardware hacking basics to reviewing firmware and moving up the stack to the application layer.

    Breaking in with CrashFix, supply chain security, and CMMC phase 1 - Anna Pham, David Zendzian, Jacob Horne - ESW #449

    Interview with Anna Pham Breaking in with ClickFix: Anatomy of a modern endpoint attack Cybersecurity company Huntress just published a report on a new ClickFix variant they've discovered, which they've dubbed CrashFix. This technique was developed by KongTuke to serve as the primary lure within a new custom malicious browser extension also created by the group. In short, the team observed the threat actors using KongTuke's malicious browser extension to display a fake security warning, claiming the browser had "stopped abnormally" and prompting users to run a "scan" to remediate the threats. Upon "running the scan," the user is presented with a fake "Security issues detected" alert and instructed to manually "fix" the issue by opening the Windows Run dialog, pasting from their clipboard, and pressing Enter. The malicious extension silently copies a PowerShell command to the clipboard, disguised as a legitimate repair command. From there, they execute the malicious command. Segment Resources: BLOG - Dissecting CrashFix: KongTuke's New Toy Interview with David Zendzian Continuous compliance and real security lifecycle management Supply chain attacks are not just on the rise; attackers are learning from the past, making these attacks even more effective and dangerous than before. It was just over a month ago when the Shai-Hulud attack first impacted NPM packages, forcing enterprises around the world into lockdown. While only 187 packages were compromised in that initial incident, it served as a wake-up call for many: an accurate inventory of systems is good, but a clear, real-time Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) for applications is non-negotiable. In this world of manifest based infrastructure and container based applications with (real) "devsecops", the dream of continuous upgrades of OS/Runtime/Stack/App and App Dependencies is very mature and there are solid examples of companies and federal entities managing this at scale without thousands of teams and people. Segment Resources: BLOG - Supply Chain Security: How accurate SBOMs can deliver proactive threat mitigation Interview with Jacob Horne CMMC Phase 1 Enforcement — What the November 10 Deadline Means for the Defense Supply Chain With the upcoming CMMC Phase 1 enforcement on November 10, cybersecurity teams across the defense and federal supply chain are facing new compliance requirements that directly affect contract eligibility and data-protection standards. Jacob Horne, Chief Cybersecurity Evangelist at Summit 7, can break down what this milestone means for enterprise security leaders, MSPs/MSSPs, and contractors preparing for audits.

    Building Trusted Automation as Leaders Struggle with AI Adoption and CISOs Hire - Tim Morris - BSW #437

    With the introduction of Agentic AI, autonomous "everything" is all the rage. But we've been burned by automation in the past. Remember the days of Intrusion Prevention Systems and why we never put them into blocking mode? Automation may be the future of security and IT operations, but the path to autonomous "everything" must be earned. How do you build autonomous capabilities with confidence and trust? Tim Morris, Financial Services Strategist at Tanium, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss how teams can introduce autonomous capabilities in a crawl-walk-run progression that builds trust over time. Automation is not about laying off employees, it's about efficiency and speed. Tim will guide us on a journey to build automation we can trust that allow us to reduce repetitive work and minimize human error without creating fear of "machine mistakes."

    Modern AppSec that keeps pace with AI development - James Wickett - ASW #372

    As more developers turn to LLMs to generate code, more appsec teams are turning to LLMs to conduct security code reviews. One of the biggest themes in all the discussion around LLMs, agents, and code is speed -- more code created faster. James Wickett shares why speed continues to pose a challenge to appsec teams and why that's often because teams haven't invested enough in foundational appsec principles.

    OT Security/business resilience, lack of incentives for securing software & the news - Ben Worthy - ESW #448

    Interview - Ben Worthy from Airbus Protect The current state of OT security and business resilience In this episode of Enterprise Security Weekly, we sit down with Ben Worthy, OT Security Specialist at Airbus Protect, to explore the evolving landscape of business resilience in safety-critical sectors. With over 25 years of experience across aerospace, nuclear, water, oil & gas, and other industries, Ben shares insights on how organizations are adapting to the surge in disruptive cyberattacks—from ransomware targeting operational technology to GPS spoofing and supply chain incidents. We discuss major cases including the Boeing/LockBit ransom demand, the Jaguar Land Rover production shutdown, and the SITA passenger data breach, examining how aviation and other critical infrastructure sectors are separating safety risk from business continuity risk. Ben also breaks down the regulatory changes reshaping the industry, including EASA's October 2025 and February 2026 deadlines that tie cyber assurance directly to safety oversight, and what ENISA's latest numbers reveal about hacktivism and ransomware trends. Whether you're in aviation, nuclear, or any safety-critical sector, this conversation offers practical lessons on building resilience that keeps operations moving while addressing threats in real time. This segment is sponsored by Airbus Protect. Visit https://securityweekly.com/airbusprotect to learn more about them! Topic: Where are the business incentives to build secure products and software? "It's the right thing to do," so of course businesses will make their products secure, right? Well, it turns out that breaches and vulnerabilities don't traditionally hurt financial performance all that much. Stocks recover, insurance covers the bulks of the losses, fines are paid, and lawsuits are settled. Most businesses can comfortably absorb the impact, so the threat of reputational harm or financial losses just aren't slowing them down. In the case of Ivanti, where the reputational harm was extreme, the company's companies continue to get hacked as critical vulnerabilities keep getting discovered in their products. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2026-02-19/vpn-used-by-us-government-failed-to-stop-china-state-sponsored-hackers In this topic segment, we don't aim to provide solutions to this problem, just the awareness that ethics, doing the right thing, and even signing the Secure by Design pledge don't seem to be enough to change vendor behavior when it comes to securing products.

    Security as a Business Enabler by Re-envisioning Risk and Leading through Uncertainty - Elyse Gunn - BSW #436

    Most organizations view security as a cost center, a "check-the-box" expense rather than a strategic investment. This mindset leads to chronic underfunding, reactive, panic-driven decision-making, and high staff turnover. It also hampers innovation, strategic initiatives, and customer trust. What if security was viewed as a business enabler, not a cost center? Elyse Gunn, CISO at Nasuni, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss how to make security a business enabler, turning security from a cost center into a profit center. Elyse discusses why aligning security initiatives to business drivers is the key to addressing trust, both internally and externally, and how it solves the biggest security priorities for organizations, including: Data Privacy AI Security, and Nth Party Risk In the leadership and communications segment, With CISOs stretched thin, re-envisioning enterprise risk may be the only fix, To Lead Through Uncertainty, Unlearn Your Assumptions, Leaders, Consider Pausing Before Acting on Employee Feedback, and more!

    Helping Users with Practical Advice to Protect their Digital Devices - Runa Sandvik - ASW #371

    Journalists put a lot of effort into collecting information and protecting their sources, but everyone can benefit from having a digital environment that's more secure and more privacy protecting. Runa Sandvik shares her experience working with journalists and targeted groups to craft plans for how they use their devices and manage their information. And she also makes the point that the burden of security should not be just for users -- platforms and software providers should be evaluating secure defaults and secure designs that improve protections for everyone.
