The 443 - Security Simplified Podcast

This week on the podcast, we round out our takeaways from the Black Hat and Def Con security conferences in Las Vegas. We go through 4 talks across both conferences that were especially interesting either for nostalgia or modern impact.

On this episode of the podcast, we have another recap from the BlackHat security conference in Las Vegas. This time we discuss a new initiative to protect the world from deepfakes, followed by a penetration testing engagement that proved immutable backups doesn't always mean available backups.

On this episode of the podcast, we cover our two favorite briefings from the first day at the Black Hat security conference. We start with our thoughts on "shadow resources" in cloud environments before giving an update to last week's episode with additional research into AI-as-a-Service attacks.

Description: This week on the episode, we walk through CrowdStrike's preliminary post incident report to understand exactly what happened during the July 19th outage and what all software vendors can learn from the event. After that, we cover a clever plot that lead to KnowBe4 hiring a North Korean threat actor. We end with some research from Wiz on Artificial Intelligence tenant isolation. 

In this daily security byte with WatchGuard CSO, Corey Nachreiner, he explains the recent Global IT outage cause by a CrowdStrike update. We also follow-up on RockYou and the RockYou2024 data dump of 10 billion records.
