In this episode, O’Reilly’s Courtney Nash talks with Katie Moussouris, founder and CEO of Luta Security. They discuss why many organizations have a knee-jerk legal response to a bug report (and why your organization shouldn’t), the first steps organizations should take in formulating a vulnerability disclosure program, and how learning through experience and sharing knowledge benefits all.

In this episode, I talk with Alex Pinto, chief data scientist at Niddel. We discuss the role of threat hunting in security, the necessity for well-defined process and documentation in threat hunting and other activities, and the potential for automating threat hunting using supervised machine learning.

In this episode, I talk with Amanda Berlin, security architect at Hurricane Labs. We discuss how to assess and develop defensive security policies when you’re new to the task, how to approach core security fundamentals like asset management, and generally how you can successfully improve your organization’s defensive security with limited time and resources.

In this episode, I talk with Kimber Dowsett, security architect at 18F. We discuss how to prepare your organization for a vulnerability disclosure policy, the benefits of starting small, and how to apply lessons learned to build better defenses.

In this episode, I talk with Kelly Shortridge, detection product manager at BAE Systems Applied Intelligence. We talk about how common cognitive biases apply to security roles, how decision trees can help security practitioners overcome assumptions and build more dynamic defenses, and how combining security and UX could lead to a more secure future.

In this episode, I talk with Dave Lewis, global security advocate at Akamai. We talk about how technical sprawl and employee churn compounds security debt, the tenacity of solvable security problems, and how the speed of innovation reintroduces vulnerabilities.

In this special episode of the Security Podcast, O’Reilly’s Ben Lorica talks with Parvez Ahammad, who leads the data science and machine learning efforts at Instart Logic. He has applied machine learning in a variety of domains, most recently to computational neuroscience and security. Lorica and Ahammad discuss the challenges of using machine learning in information security.

In this episode, I talk with Katie Moussouris, founder and CEO of Luta Security. We discuss the five stages of vulnerability disclosure grief, hacking the government, and the pros and cons of bug bounty programs.

In this episode, I talk with Allison Miller, product manager for secure browsing at Google and my co-host of the O’Reilly Security conference, which is returning to New York City this fall. We discuss the importance of having an event focused solely on defense, what we’re looking forward to this year, and some notable ideas and topics from the call for proposals.

In this episode, O’Reilly Media’s Mac Slocum talks with Scout Brody, executive director of Simply Secure. They discuss building systems that help humans, designing better tools through user studies, and balancing the demands of shipping software with security.
