March 12, 2022 Is A Cybersecurity Boot Camp Right For Me?
Starting out in cybersecurity today is somewhat easier than the last decade with an array of mentors, free resources, boot camps and certifications.
But some of these options can be expensive if you go down the boot camp or certification path.
In part 2 of our new mini-series #1SEAT, I spoke with Matticus Hunt on his experience and thoughts around boot camps in order to help others weigh the pros and cons.

March 01, 2022How to Build and Retain a Highly Qualified SOC Team
Cybersecurity work requires long, demanding hours and being on call 24/7.
Companies who want to build a dedicated team and retain them over the long run have to find ways to make those demands worth it. A competitive salary is a given, but that’s not enough to make a person stay. Nurturing employee education with regular training and mentorships, fostering a culture of teamwork, and creating paths for growth can improve employee retainment.
In this first episode of our new mini-series #1SEAT, Joshua Copeland, Security Operation Center Director for AT&T, shares his tips for hiring the right candidates, making training a priority, and taking some of the pressure off the job.

February 22, 2022How To Grow And Scale A Secure Business With Compliance
Compliance is not security.
The two are connected, but just because you have all the certifications doesn’t mean that you’re secure. It does mean that as a company you’ve put in the time, effort, and resources to create a more secure organization. It builds trust with future partners and consumers. Most of all, it ensures that you have all the right practices in place to grow and scale your company in a secure way.
In this episode, Esther Pinto, head of information security at anecdotes, shares how companies should see compliance as a vehicle for growth and why training is so much more important than certificates for security professionals.

February 15, 2022Demystifying DMARC: What you need to know!
Phishing and scams are the bane of everyone’s virtual inbox, but some attacks are more insidious than others.
Skilled scammers can impersonate people or brands to lure email recipients into a false sense of security. If you want to protect your domain name, you need to take cybersecurity to the next level. DMARC, which stands for Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting, and Conformance, can prevent someone else from using your domain name on scam emails.
In our latest episode of Cybersecurity Heroes, Callum Noad, a sales engineer at IRONSCALES, shared what you need to know to implement DMARC in your company.

February 08, 2022 Why Defensibility and Accountability Is Key To Building Trust and Reducing Cybersecurity Risk
If you want to keep your clients’ data secure, you need to be actively working to better your systems and protocols.
This requires two key things: defensibility and accountability. Your job as an MSP or an MSSP is not to protect your clients. It's to be defensible in your actions. This comes down to how you choose to protect your client's data and network, and how you educate your client. Working to mitigate risk is a never-ending part of cybersecurity. But by working proactively, you can get ahead of potential breaches.
In this episode, Matt Lee, Senior Director of Security and Compliance at Pax8, shared his tips for mitigating cybersecurity risk through defensible and accountable practices, plus how to handle the responsibilities of an MSSP.

February 01, 2022Why Current Encryption Solutions Are Ripe for Disruption
If your company is a castle, it’s not enough to keep the perimeter safe.
You need to safeguard the objects inside, too. Many companies have encryption and password protection in place already. But in the modern threat landscape, the status quo is no longer cutting it.
The team at Atakama is busy innovating the next level of encryption techniques.
In this episode, Dimitri Nemirovsky, Atakama’s COO and co-founder, explains why new forms of encryption are needed, and how the technology Atakama is developing works.

January 25, 2022 How To Adapt To The Current Threat Landscape
The landscape of cybersecurity threats has evolved from individual skilled attackers to a huge marketplace built by cybercrime organizations.
Now someone can make an efficient ransomware attack including the payload and the delivery mechanism, and go sell it to whoever can pay the price.
Bruce Snell, security strategy and transformation at NTT, explains that this shift means that the scale of cyberattacks has exponentially grown in recent years. Ten crime organizations now fuel hundreds of thousands of attacks.
In this episode, Bruce discusses how doing the bare minimum to protect your business is no longer enough and outlines the steps you need to take to boost your defenses.

January 18, 2022To Protect Against Advanced Email Threats Requires A Different Technology & Approach
Business email compromise may have been a big issue before COVID, but in the past couple of years it’s grown exponentially. Not only have nefarious actors been raking in the money, but they’ve also changed tactics. In the early days of this threat, an actor would register a lookalike domain and hope an email from it would get through. Now 95% of this type of email is coming directly from a trusted coworker, vendor, or client accounts who’ve unknowingly put their credentials into a fake login form. Cracking down on this threat is harder when the source is someone you do business with. In this episode, Jeremy Schwarzrock, senior information security analyst at Alerus, gave us the rundown on how his team is putting protections in place to eliminate it.Show Links

Infosecurity managers are under pressure to find and fill demand with skilled professionals that can hit the ground running.
