Demystifying Security Engineering Career Tracks - Karan Dwivedi - ASW #281
Security Weekly Podcast Network (Audio)
There are as many paths into infosec as there are disciplines within infosec to specialize in. Karan Dwivedi talks about the recent book he and co-author Raaghav Srinivasan wrote about security engineering. There's an appealing future to security taking on engineering roles and creating solutions to problems that orgs face. We talk about the breadth and depth of security engineering and ways to build the skills that will help you in your appsec career. Segment resources: A Rust advisory highlights the perils of parsing and problems of inconsistent approaches, D-Link (sort of) deals with end...

Understanding KillNet and Recent Waves of DDoS Attacks - Michael Smith - ESW #357
Security Weekly Podcast Network (Audio)
In the days when Mirai emerged and took down DynDNS, along with what seemed like half the Internet, DDoS was as active a topic in the headlines as it was behind the scenes (). We don't hear about DDoS attacks as much anymore. What happened? Well, they didn't go away. DDoS attacks are a more common and varied tool of cybercriminals than ever. Today, Michael Smith is going to catch us up on the state of DDoS attacks in 2024, and we'll focus particularly on one cybercrime actor, KillNet. Segment Resources: - I know the title makes this blog post sound rather basic, but it will get you up to...

Lessons That The XZ Utils Backdoor Spells Out - Farshad Abasi - ASW #280
Security Weekly Podcast Network (Audio)
We look into the supply chain saga of the XZ Utils backdoor. It's a wild story of a carefully planned long con to add malicious code to a commonly used package that many SSH connections rely on. It hits themes from social engineering and abuse of trust to obscuring the changes and suppressing warnings. It also has a few lessons about software development, the social and economic dynamics of open source, and strategies for patching software. It's an exciting topic partially because so much other appsec is boring. And that boring stuff is important to get right first. We also talk about what...

Understanding the Cybersecurity Ecosystem - Ross Haleliuk - BSW #345
Security Weekly Podcast Network (Audio)
In this discussion, we focus on vendor/tool challenges in infosec, from a security leader's perspective. To quote our guest, Ross, "running a security program is often confused with shopping". You can't buy an effective security program any more than you can buy respect, or a black belt in kung fu (there might be holes in these examples, but you hopefully get the point). In fact, buying too much can often create more problems than it solves, especially if you're struggling to fill your staffing needs. In this 2-part episode, we'll discuss: - The current state of vendor offerings in...
