In the Security News: - Shim Shady, Up Shims Creek, whatever you want to call it, there's a vulnerability affecting pretty much all Linux distributions (and other operating systems as well), when your toothbrush attacks the Internet, or some claim, glibc has some vulnerabilities, not all got a CVE, and one is for the algorithm lovers, Google shows some love for Rust, beating Bitlocker in 43 seconds, DEF CON was canceled, then uncancelled, and I'm not even joking this time, and the Government is here to "unhack" your router,

Legacy systems are riddled with outdated and unreliable cryptographic standards. So much so that recent proprietary research found 61 percent of the traffic was unencrypted, and up to 80% of encrypted network traffic has some defeatable flaw in its encryption

No longer can enterprises take their cryptography for granted, rarely evaluated or checked.

Knowing when, where and what type of cryptography is used throughout the enterprise and by which applications is critical to your overall security policy, zero-trust approach, and risk management strategy. After all, zero-trust is meaningless if your cryptography isn't working.

As a computer-smitten middle-schooler in the former Soviet Union in the 1970s, to his current and prominent role in the cybersecurity research community, Bratus aims to render the increasingly prevalent and perilous software, hardware, and networks in our lives much safer to use. His fascination with computer security started for real in the 1990s as a mathematics graduate student when a computer he was programming and responsible for at Northeastern University in Boston was taken over by a hacker. That experience set him on his life's mission to learn as much as he can about the vulnerabilities of software and hardware with the goal of learning how to best minimize or eliminate those vulnerabilities. Noting his embrace of the hacker community for its deep and innovative expertise in this context, Bratus's portfolio at DARPA could help reduce or entirely remove even some of the most stealthy and unexpected vulnerabilities that reside in software and its logical, computational, and mathematical foundations.

We can't talk about OWASP without talking about lists, but we go beyond the lists to talk about a product security framework. Grant shares his insights on what makes lists work (and not work). More importantly, he shares the work he's doing to spearhead a new OWASP project to help scale the creation of appsec programs, whether you're on your own or part of a global org.

Large security vendors and hyperscalers, including Microsoft, continue to expand their cybersecurity product and service portfolios. Microsoft's extensive enterprise reach, massive partner network, and enormous influence in the C-suite puts pressure on CIOs and CISOs to consolidate on it as much as possible for cybersecurity. This report helps security leaders understand Microsoft's cybersecurity portfolio, the tactics it uses, and how to manage peer and executive pressure to single-source security technology.
