Paul's Security Weekly (Video)

With an alarming increase in K-12 cybersecurity attacks, districts are considering new ways to protect their students and staff. With the need to increase the cybersecurity talent pipeline, the solution to the problem is much larger than just increasing protective technology measures to keep schools safe. Schools must also be proactive in training the next generation of cybersecurity experts.

Mark is currently involved in building a security operations center for a large organization with an established infrastructure and teams already in place. In this chat, we'll explore the state of the SOC today, the challenges of building one, the reality versus expectations roles, what is SOAR'ing and not, and more. Tangential paths will likely be followed, as information security is fun to talk about in general!

With all of your focus and investment on 3rd party risk management, there is likely still a blind-side that remains unaddressed. It is an area that should be moved to the top of your priority list - both for its potential to cause material losses in the form of response costs and fines and judgements, and for the ease in which it can be mitigated. It is a risk introduced by the 3rd party vendors you rely upon (and the nth parties they work with) to power and enhance your website. The threat of JavaScript based attacks - click-jacking, digital skimming, formjacking, defacement, "Magecart" - exists for any organization collecting sensitive data or conducting transactions through their web properties. Attacks of this type have done damage to some of the biggest brands in the world - costing household names like British Airways tens of millions - and they happen by the hundreds per month. Already in 2022, we've seen headlines of major client-side attacks like the one that hit Segway - potentially impacting nearly a million consumers. This is an area of exposure introduced through your own code, and by your partners, that can only be addressed at the client-side. It remains widely unaddressed, as focus in website security to this point has been on securing the server side. Join us for an exploration of the threat of these attacks, real-world examples of the material impact they have caused, and dialogue on the approaches to mitigating this risk with pros and cons of each.
