001: The Unfair Fight: Ransomware, Pen Testing, And Global Tech Attacks

Описание: Welcome to The Unfair Fight podcast! I am your host, Jon Murchison, Founder & CEO of Blackpoint Cyber, and I am thrilled to launch the show and explore a number of topics in the cyber, tech, and security world. We’ll learn, have fun, and maybe even throw in a controversial opinion or two along the way. This week I am joined by Co-Hosts Xavier Salinas, VP of Threat Operations, Blackpoint Cyber, and Brian Dykstra, CEO of Atlantic Data Forensics. We discuss areas of vulnerability research, cyberwar, and what a tech attack on a large scale could really look like. We talk about the big three ransomware groups and the tools they use, important information for cloud vendors to know, and our thoughts on the CVE process and pen-testing tools. We wrap up discussing why it’s important to respect your adversaries and not take their skills for granted. It’s a blast debating some of these hot potato topics, and there’s much more coming soon, so stay tuned! Say Hi To Your Hosts: Jon Murchison Xavier Salinas  Brian Dykstra
