  • How Security Teams Use Deception Technology to Trap Attackers

    In this episode of Cybersecurity Business with Fexingo, Lucas and Luna dive into the world of cyber deception — how security teams are deploying fake assets, decoys, and lures to detect and misdirect attackers in real time. They explore a real case: a mid-sized financial services firm that deployed a network of 500 decoy endpoints and caught an advanced persistent threat within 48 hours, something their traditional EDR had missed for weeks. The hosts break down the economics of deception technology, the shift from reactive to proactive defense, and why CISOs are increasingly treating deception as a core detection layer rather than a novelty. Listeners will learn about the key vendors in the space (including Illusive Networks and TrapX), the difference between low-interaction and high-interaction honeypots, and how generative AI is now being used to dynamically generate believable decoys. A must-listen for security leaders evaluating new detection strategies.

  • How Security Teams Are Using Digital Twins to Simulate Attacks

    Episode 85 of Cybersecurity Business with Fexingo explores digital twin security — using virtual replicas of networks, applications, and critical infrastructure to simulate cyberattacks before they happen. Lucas and Luna discuss how Boeing and the energy sector are deploying digital twins to test defenses against ransomware and supply chain compromises without risking real systems. They break down the core concept: a digital twin mirrors your production environment in near-real-time, allowing red teams to run attack simulations that would be too dangerous to attempt on live networks. The hosts also examine the cost barriers — digital twins can cost millions to build and maintain — and why adoption is highest in industries where downtime is unacceptable, like manufacturing, aerospace, and power grids. Lucas explains how digital twins differ from traditional sandboxing, and Luna challenges whether smaller enterprises can justify the investment. The episode closes with a look at the emerging standard from the Digital Twin Consortium and what it means for CISOs planning 2027 budgets.

About Cybersecurity Business with Fexingo: Security Companies, Breaches, and Enterprise Defense

From the publisher's feed

Lucas and Luna examine the business of cybersecurity: the companies that build defenses, the breaches that expose weaknesses, and the enterprise strategies that determine who survives a digital siege. Each episode dissects one security vendor's financial filings, contract wins, and R&D spend — CrowdStrike versus Palo Alto Networks, the Okta identity saga, how SentinelOne's AI detection affects its gross margins. They walk through actual breach post-mortems (Colonial Pipeline, SolarWinds, MOVEit) and ask: what did the insurance payout look like, which C-suite roles took the blame, and how did the stock move? Lucas reads directly from SEC filings and earnings call transcripts; Luna presses on competitive moats, customer churn, and the cost of zero-day exploits. The show serves investors tracking the cybersecurity ETF, CISOs benchmarking vendor spend, and product managers who need to understand how boardroom risk appetite translates into line-item budgets. Conversations stay grounded in market caps, contract sizes, and patch-cycle economics — no fear-mongering, no vendor white papers. What does a 30% year-over-year increase in ransomware payouts mean for the next quarter's firewall procurement cycle?
