During his keynote at Black Hat 2022, former CISA Director, Chris Krebs, will reflect on 25 years of the information security community, discussing today’s risks and trends and what they mean for tomorrow’s network defenders. We get a sneak peek into some of these items during this Chats on the Road to Las Vegas.
Chris Krebs is a Founding Partner of Krebs Stamos Group, founded in 2020 alongside Alex Stamos. He was the first director of U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), leading the nation’s civilian cyber defense and business resilience and risk management efforts. He will give his talk “Black at 25: Where Do We Go from Here?” on Wednesday, Aug. 10 at 9 a.m.
About the keynote, "Black Hat at 25: Where Do We Go from Here?"
For twenty-five years, the InfoSec community and industry have been gathering here in the desert. For twenty-five years, we have chipped away at underlying insecurities in the technologies we use every day with new vulnerability research and adversary insights. For twenty-five years we’ve seen vendors and software firms roll out new products and protections. With the last twenty-five years as prologue and as we look forward to the next twenty-five years, we have to ask ourselves: are we on the right track?
We certainly aren’t set up for success, given society’s insatiable and almost pathological need to connect everything. We’re constantly serving up more attack surface to the bad guys and always cleaning up after business decisions that we know will drive bad security outcomes. All the while factors out of our hands – namely global market realities and shifting geopolitical dynamics – wreck nearly overnight carefully orchestrated business plans and national strategies. The last few years of geopolitical chaos and autocratic retrenchment might look like the good ol’ days by the end of the 2020s.
This talk will work through today’s risk trends and what they mean for tomorrow’s network defenders, suggesting along the way the needed shifts in both mindset and action to successfully deliver better outcomes while recognizing that we’re going to be forever operating in a contested information environment. To rip off a Mitch Hedberg joke (RIP), maybe over the next twenty-five years we can build a safer, more resilient technological future where systems and infrastructure behave more like escalators: when they break, they turn into stairs.
