https://t.co/zoy3qM4uxq Big news, I'm ridiculously excited to finally share that I'm the featured guest on the podcast CEO Chat! I break down IT concepts into terms that are relevant to those who need them most. Definitely give it a listen!
One thing you can count on when you put a buncha nerds together: a superhero references. Tonya Ugoretz explains how a #cyber criminal team is put together using an #Avengers reference. This is what I come for! #Dc#cybertalks
Christopher Scott of @IBM gets the "Amen 🙌🏿 Award" by explaining, "The people who break into networks are CRIMINALS. Hackers are the people who help us think differently." #dc#cybertalks
"So we just put [our vender products] in the cloud, like that's safe. The cloud is just a datacenter down the street. It's still a computer. It's still on the internet." -Christopher Scott from @IBM#Dc#cybertalks
"The government sells to the lowest bidder. That low price means that [the vendor is] cutting corners somewhere and it's probably less robust cyber security." -Matthew Dunlop, CISO at @UnderArmour#Dc#CyberTalks
"When you hear about a breach in the news, it's because a user clicked a phishing link or something like that. Never in the news do you see a company suffered a breach because they didn't have a particular tool or software." -Matthew Dunlop, CISO at @UnderArmour#Dc#CyberTalks
I always love coming to #Dc#CyberTalks and hope that the talks for #2020 are more diverse. It'd be great to have more minorities, small/local businesses and nonprofits on the stage sharing their points of view.
One of the best investments a #business can make is to elevate the technical understanding of its employees. Not only are you taking your 1st line of defense out of reach of cyber criminals, they're learning skills that they can then pass on. #cybersecurity#infosec#technology
For #privacy enthusiasts, this is a big win. The program never produced the results it promised and was a major privacy nightmare for the average citizen. In the age of mega data breaches, it's a good thing it was never compromised #infosec#cybersecurity#technology
