The Cyber Crime Lab Podcast

Helping Victims in the Heat of a Cyberattack

Going through a cyberattack can feel like having a heart attack, and sometimes those calling in for help during one actually are having them. something that Coen Bakkers [https://www.linkedin.com/in/coenbakkers/], Managing Principal Incident Response Consultant at Secureworks [https://www.linkedin.com/company/secureworks/] has experienced firsthand. Coen joins host Andy Anderson to describe what it takes to get a victim from their first call to a state of recovery, including: - Listening and building trust: hearing out someone in their early stages of panic and reassuring them. - Setting timelines: often Coen and his team are engaged for 2-3 weeks in solving a problem, and clients have to pace themselves so as not to drop from exhaustion. - Starting an investigation: where to look and what to rule out.

How Threat Actors Are Getting Bigger and Badder

“Business email compromise” can often lead to much larger problems across the organisation because many people retain sensitive data in their emails. Someone who has seen this play out on multiple occasions is Violet Sullivan [https://www.linkedin.com/in/txcyberlawyer/], VP of Client Engagement at Redpoint Cyber [https://www.linkedin.com/company/redpoint-cyber/].  Violet joins host Andy Anderson to talk about her observations. She draws on her experience teaching cybersecurity and privacy law as well as working as a practitioner for a forensics company. These include:  - The fact that regulations alone can’t solve cybercrime — companies have to do their part in keeping abreast of a rapidly changing landscape. - Consider who your first call is when you are in trouble. - When trouble comes, the best response is to consider all options, don’t rule anything out.

Thinking Proactively About Cybersecurity

Not many individuals have been involved with cybersecurity for decades, but Greg Young [https://www.linkedin.com/in/greg-young-9125683/], Vice President Cybersecurity and CorpDev at Trend Micro [https://www.linkedin.com/company/trend-micro/], has been advising companies on security matters for over 30 years. Greg has his finger on the pulse of continuing developments in cybersecurity. He and host Andy Anderson discuss:  - False positives and false negatives — what they are and how companies can guard against them. - Why the different software you are using for security should be able to communicate with each other. - Why advice like, “just patch software” or “do backups” isn’t always easily implemented.

Cybersecurity: Not Just for Big Firms Anymore

While some medium and even large-scale firms continue to resist keeping up with the latest cybersecurity measures, more and more small firms and solopreneurs are taking cybersecurity seriously, says Wayne Hunter [https://www.linkedin.com/in/waynehunteravtek/], Founder and CEO at AvTek Solutions, Inc [https://www.linkedin.com/company/avtek-solutions/]. Wayne joins host Andy Anderson to discuss: - Why organizations need to “walk the talk” when it comes to cybersecurity. - Why cybersecurity isn’t ever a “set it and forget it” measure; companies have to keep pace with hackers who are also in “business” for profit. - Ways to overcome objections to cybersecurity measures in an organization.
