Why we fail at getting the cybersecurity basics right, with Jess Dodson

from Lock and Code

The cybersecurity basics should be just that—basic. Easy to do, agreed-upon, and adopted at a near 100 percent rate by companies and organizations everywhere, right? You'd hope. But the reality is that basic cybersecurity blunders have led to easy-to-discover vulnerabilities in companies including John Deere, Clubhouse, and Kaseya VSA (which we've all talked about on this show), and at least for Kaseya VSA, those vulnerabilities led to one of the worst ransomware attacks in recent history. Today, on the Lock and Code podcast with host David Ruiz, we speak with security professional and recovering Windows systems administrator Jess Dodson about why we seem to keep getting the cybersecurity basics so wrong, and why getting up to speed—which can take a company more than a year—is so necessary.
