Send us Fan MailAs we’ve discussed numerous times on Security Breach, terms like change, evolution and constant are more than just buzz terms – they’re a simple reality of working in the industrial OT space.Whether we’re discussing threat actors from Stuxnet to Lockbit, tactics from social engineering to double-extortion ransomware, or vulnerability sources ranging from weak passwords to embedded secure-by design concerns, the ever-expanding attack surface is a constant reminder of change and the evolving nature of threats. In this episode we talk to Michael Haase, and draw on his extensive background and personal experiences as we discuss:The on-going balancing act between cost and security priorities.Why he considers the need for phishing training, "a massive failure on the part of the technical community."How AI is laying the groundwork for attacks that haven't happened yet.Why the growing complexity of hackers is actually a positive indicator.Automation is the inflection point for cybersecurity - for both sides.The shift from worrying about the ability to detect new attacks to focusing on the vulnerabilities being exploited.The distinction between learning what needs to be done and actually taking action.As a go-to podcast for our listeners, we want to help you align your brand with our expertise.
