Listen "Going Back to Basics to Thwart Attacks"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of ConversingLabs, host Paul Roberts interviews Chuck McWhirter, principal solutions architect at ReversingLabs, about the importance of sticking to basics when it comes to thwarting attacks from adversaries. Chuck recounts his experiences in both the public and private sectors, including his efforts in securing the 2002 Olympics – back when the Security Operations Center (SOC) had not yet evolved. The details of Chuck’s journey shed light on how enterprise security teams can better handle the cyber threats stemming from nation-state adversaries. By minimizing cybersecurity tool sprawl and alert fatigue, as well as assessing situational risk, Chuck argues that security teams stand a better chance against attackers.
