In the past few years, supply chain attacks and their impacts have or will soon overtake that of the damage done by ransomware. It’s of no surprise then that APIs are a critical attack vector that threat actors like to exploit, yet many organizations do not have a good understanding of how many doors they have running into their data.

This week we chat with the godfather of Zero Trust, Dr. Zero Trust, and a chief security officer about the current state of API security maturity. Considering our guests, we, of course, also took the opportunity to chat a bit about Zero Trust's history.

This week we have three very special guests:

  • John Kindervag, the creator (godfather) of Zero Trust
  • Chase Cunningham, AKA Dr Zero Trust, and the now VP of Market Research for G2
  • Richard Bird, Traceable AI’s Chief Security Officer
  • Key Takeaways
    • Like any other cybersecurity concept, APIs must have an asset inventory
  • There is enough margin of error tied to the intended use of APIs that require continuous monitoring/verification
  • There is a current maturity gap associated with securing the use of APIs in the name of speed and innovation, and often there is not a well-established owner
  • Editors Note

    We will be taking a publishing break for the month of September as my daughter has arrived, and I will need to catch up on all the sleep I can get. We should be back in October and run through until the holiday break before we wrap season two. I’m also working on a few experimental podcast series during my parental leave, so stay tuned. At least one in particular should be of interest to our audience here. Also, if you work for a cybersecurity org and are interested in launching a podcast, slide into my inbox if you need a hand.
