Cure Me or Kill Me - The Little Things That Escalate Attacks

Send us Fan MailAs loyal listeners of this podcast know, I’m a big believer in paying close attention to the little things, the blocking and tackling, the basics, the fundamentals. All those elementary elements that comprise the building blocks of stronger cybersecurity plans and successful defensive strategies. Spoiler alert – that comes through again … and again in this episode, but what makes it worth your time is how my guest, Jesper Sønderby Andersen, the Global Head of Customer Success at Secomea, goes beyond just discussing how all these little things can both kill and cure you cyber defenses, but how they all should fit together. If you’ll allow me to channel a childhood hero, Hannibal Smith from TV’s The A-Team, it’s not just about the plan, but how it comes together. Listen as Jesper and I discuss:How football coach Bill Belichick influenced his cybersecurity philosophy.The growing importance of breaking down silos in establishing accountability for remote access management.Why IT approaches do not work in OT.The similar and unique challenges of managing remote access with employees and vendors.Why proper segmentation strategies are vital, but must start with asset visibility and a true understanding of your crown jewels.How attacks are continuing to increase due to the "little stuff" that goes unprotected, and why AI will help escalate the severity and success of these hacks.Why Jesper believes larger attacks will be felt from supply chain vulnerabilities.Reinforcing the competitive advantages of investing in cybersecurity.The importance of being a tool and technology enabler to improve security.As a go-to podcast for our listeners, we want to help you align your brand with our expertise.
