This week's interview dives deep into the state of biometrics with two Forrester Research analysts!
This discussion compares and contrasts regional approaches to biometrics; examine the security challenges and benefits of their implementation; and reveal how biometrics holds the keys to a range of engagement models of the future.
Andras Cser dives into the technical end of things and explains how biometrics can be resilient to attack. We can't replace our fingerprints or faces, but as Andras explains, there's no need to, thanks to how biometrics actually work. Then, Enza takes us through the latest on privacy in biometrics - a concern for both consumers, and businesses tasked with complying with privacy regulations and avoiding costly fines.
Finally, get a sneak peek into the upcoming Forrester Security & Risk Summit. Whether you're an industry professional or just curious about the implications of biometrics, this episode delivers insights you won't want to miss!
This week, in the Application Security News, we dismiss magical thinking and discuss what generative AI will actually be able to do for us.
We also discuss whether Secure by Design's goals are practical or not.

The Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) Act was a watershed moment in corporate governance, fundamentally altering how companies approached financial reporting and internal operational controls. By holding executives personally accountable for the accuracy of financial reports, SOX restored investor confidence in the wake of corporate malfeasance. The SEC's new cybersecurity rule represents a similar pursuit to restore investor confidence — this time for the digital age, centered on integrating cybersecurity into overall risk management.
Padraic O'Reilly, Founder and Chief Innovation Officer at CyberSaint, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss the similarities between SOX and SEC's Cyber Rule. The SEC's cybersecurity rule introduced several vital requirements that build on the principles established by SOX, including:
Companies must report material cybersecurity incidents on Form 8-K, ensuring timely and transparent disclosure to investors. Companies must provide regular updates on their cybersecurity risk management policies, the role of management in implementing these policies and the board's oversight of cybersecurity risks. The rule encourages companies to disclose the cybersecurity expertise of their board members, highlighting the importance of informed oversight in managing cyber risks. The rule requires cybersecurity disclosures to be presented in Inline Extensible Business Reporting Language, or Inline XBRL, ensuring consistency and comparability across filings.This segment is sponsored by CyberSaint .

There have been a lot of bold claims about how generative AI and machine learning will transform the SOC. Ironically, the SOC was (arguably) invented only because security products failed to make good on bold claims. The cybersecurity market is full of products that exist only to solve the problems created by other security products (Security Analytics, SOC Automation, Risk-Based Vulnerability Management).
Other products are natural evolutions and pick up where others leave off. In this interview, we'll explore what AI can and can't do, particularly when it comes to alert triage and other common SOC tasks.

From Forrester: Generative AI Will Not Fulfill Your Autonomous SOC Hopes (Or Even Your Demo Dreams) From Intezer: Mastering SOC Automation in 2024: Tips, Trends and Tools The Future of SOC Automation Platforms SentinelOne wants to make the autonomous SOC a realityNaturally, the next approach to try is a federated one. How do we break down cybersecurity into more bite-sized components? How do we alleviate all this CISO stress we've heard about, and make their job seem less impossible than it does today?
This will be a more standards and GRC focused discussion, covering:

Alright, so we dove deep into some pretty wild stuff this week. We started off talking about zip files inside zip files. This is a variation of old-school zip file tricks, and the latest method described here is still causing headaches for antivirus software. Then we geeked out about infrared signals and the Flipper Zero, which brought back memories of the TV-B-Gone. But the real kicker was our discussion on end-of-life software and the whole CVE numbering authority mess. Avanti's refusal to issue a CVE for their end-of-life product sparked a heated debate about cybersecurity accountability and conflicts of interest.

In this week's interview, Melinda Marks' joins us to discuss her latest research. Her recent report Modernizing Application Security to Scale for Cloud-Native Development delves into many aspects and trends affecting AppSec as it matures, particularly in cloud-first organizations.
We also discuss the fuzzy line between "cloud-native" AppSec and everything else that refuses to disappear, particularly for organizations that weren't born cloud-native and still have legacy workloads to worry about.
Integrating security into the SDLC and CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code (IaC) trends, best of breed vs platform, and other aspects of AppSec get discussed as well!
This week, in the Application Security News, we spend a lot of time on some recent vulnerabilities. We take this opportunity to talk about how to determine whether or not a vulnerability is worth a critical response.
Can AI fully automate DevSecOps Governance? Adrian has his reservations, but JLK is bullish.
Is it bad that 70% of DevSecOps professionals don't know if code is AI generated or not?

CISOs struggle more with reactive budgets than CIOs or CTOs. It's not that part of the CISO's budget shouldn't be reactive, it's certainly necessary to an extent. The problem is when proactive measures suffer as a result. In this interview, we'll discuss some of the causes behind this and some strategies for breaking out of this loop.

After spending a decade working for appsec vendors, Grant McKracken wanted to give something back. He saw a gap in the market for free or low-cost services for smaller organizations that have real appsec needs, but not a lot of means to pay for it. He founded DarkHorse, who offers VDPs and bug bounties to organizations of all sizes for free, or for as low of cost as possible.
While not a non-profit, the company's goal is to make these services as cheap as possible to increase accessibility for smaller or more budget-constrained organizations. The company has also introduced the concept of "fractional pentesting", access to cyber talent when and how you need it, based on what you can afford. This implies services beyond just offensive security, something we'll dive deeper into in the interview.
We don't see DarkHorse ever competing with the larger Bug Bounty platforms, but rather providing services to the organizations too small for the larger platforms to sell to.
Microsoft delays Recall AGAIN, Project Zero uses an LLM to find a bugger underflow in SQLite, the scourge of infostealer malware, zero standing privileges is easy if you have unlimited time (but no one does), reverse engineering Nintendo's Alarmo and RedBox's... boxes.

The future is here! Imagine if you could get into the office, a datacenter, or even an apartment building as easily as you unlock your smartphone. Alcatraz AI is doing exactly that with technology that works similarly to how smartphones unlock using your face. It works in the dark, if you shave off your beard, and so quickly you don't even need to slow down for the scan - you can just keep on walking.
We don't often cover physical security, so this interview is going to be a treat for us. There are SO many questions to ask here, particularly for our hosts who have done physical penetration tests, social engineering, and tailgating in the past to get past physical security measures.
