You might know them from their excellent research work on groups like Scattered Spider, or their refreshing branding/marketing style, but Permiso is laying some impressive groundwork for understanding and defending against identity and cloud-based attacks. In this interview, we talk with co-founder and co-CEO Paul Nguyen about understanding the threats against some of cybercriminals' favorite attack surface, insider threats, and non-human identity compromise.

Segment Resources:

• This blog post from our threat research team on Scattered Spider shows how threat actors move laterally in an environment across identity providers, Iaas, PaaS and SaaS environments, and how this lateral movement ultimately creates blind spots for many security teams
• This great talk by Ian Ahl, from fwd:cloudsec 2024, touches on a lot of great TTPs used by attackers in IDPs and in the cloud
• Another blog, When AI Gets Hijacked: Exploiting Hosted Models for Dark Roleplaying

Vulnerability prioritization, the final frontier. Many say they do it, but do they really? It takes way more than vulnerability data to truly prioritize vulnerabilities.

Greg Fitzgerald, Co-Founder and CXO at Sevco Security, and Steve Lodin , Vice President, Information Security at Sallie Mae, join Business Security Weekly to dig in. We'll discuss the importance of context, including asset inventory and configuration management, in truly prioritizing vulnerabilities. But it's not that easy. We'll discuss the challenges and approaches to help solve this ever evasive topic.

We take advantage of April Fools to look at some of appsec's myths, mistakes, and behaviors that lead to bad practices. It's easy to get trapped in a status quo of chasing CVEs or discussing which direction to shift security. But scrutinizing decimal points in CVSS scores or rearranging tools misses the opportunity for more strategic thinking. We satirize some worst practices in order to have a more serious discussion about a future where more software is based on secure designs.
