Topics
- There is a common scenario where security teams are brought in after a cloud environment is already established. From your experience, how does this late involvement typically impact the organization's security posture and what are the immediate risks they face?
- Upon hearing this, many experts suggest that “burn the environment with fire” or “nuke it from orbit” are the only feasible approaches? What is your take on that suggestion?
- On the opposite side, what if business demands you don't touch anything but “make it secure” regardless?
- Could you walk us through some of the first critical steps you do after “inheriting a cloud” and why they are prioritized in this way?
- Why not just say “add MFA everywhere”? What may or will blow up?
- We also say “address overly permissive users and roles” and this sounds valuable, but also tricky. How do we go about it?
- What are the chances that the environment is in fact compromised already? When is Compromise Assessment the right call, it does cost money, right?
- How do you balance your team’s current priorities when you’ve just adopted an insecure cloud environment. How do you make tradeoffs among your existing stack and this new one?

Guest: Steve Ledzian , APAC CTO, Mandiant at Google Cloud Topics: We've seen a shift in how boards engage with cybersecurity. From your perspective, what's the most significant misconception boards still hold about cyber risk, particularly in the Asia Pacific region, and how has that impacted their decision-making? Cybersecurity is rife with jargon. If you could eliminate or redefine one overused term, which would it be and why? How does this overloaded language specifically hinder effective communication and action in the region? The Mandiant Attack Lifecycle is a well-known model. How has your experience in the East Asia region challenged or refined this model? Are there unique attack patterns or actor behaviors that necessitate adjustments? Two years post-acquisition, what's been the most surprising or unexpected benefit of the Google-Mandiant combination? M-Trends data provides valuable insights, particularly regarding dwell time. Considering the Asia Pacific region, what are the most significant factors reducing dwell time, and how do these trends differ from global averages? Given your expertise in Asia Pacific, can you share an observation about a threat actor's behavior that is often overlooked in broader cybersecurity discussions? Looking ahead, what's the single biggest cybersecurity challenge you foresee for organizations in the Asia Pacific region over the next five years, and what proactive steps should they be taking now to prepare?

1 EP218 IAM in the Cloud & AI Era: Navigating Evolution, Challenges, and the Rise of ITDR/ISPM 30:10
Guest: Henrique Teixeira , Senior VP of Strategy, Saviynt, ex-Gartner analyst Topics: How have you seen IAM evolve over the years, especially with the shift to the cloud, and now AI? What are some of the biggest challenges and opportunities these two shifts present? ITDR (Identity Threat Detection and Response) and ISPM (Identity Security Posture Management) are emerging areas in IAM. How do you see these fitting into the overall IAM landscape? Are they truly distinct categories or just extensions of existing IAM practices? Shouldn’t ITDR just be part of your Cloud DR or maybe even your SecOps tool of choice? It seems goofy to try to stand ITDR on its own when the impact of an identity compromise is entirely a function of what that identity can access or do, no? Regarding workload vs. human identity, could you elaborate on the unique security considerations for each? How does the rise of machine identities and APIs impact IAM approaches? We had a whole episode around machine identity that involved turtles–what have you seen in the machine identity space and how have you seen users mess it up? The cybersecurity world is full of acronyms. Any tips on how to create a memorable and impactful acronym? Resources: EP166 Workload Identity, Zero Trust and SPIFFE (Also Turtles!)

Guest: Alex Polyakov , CEO at Adversa AI Topics: Adversa AI is known for its focus on AI red teaming and adversarial attacks. Can you share a particularly memorable red teaming exercise that exposed a surprising vulnerability in an AI system? What was the key takeaway for your team and the client? Beyond traditional adversarial attacks, what emerging threats in the AI security landscape are you most concerned about right now? What trips most clients, classic security mistakes in AI systems or AI-specific mistakes? Are there truly new mistakes in AI systems or are they old mistakes in new clothing?

Guest: James Campbell , CEO, Cado Security Chris Doman , CTO, Cado Security Topics: Cloud Detection and Response (CDR) vs Cloud Investigation and Response Automation( CIRA ) ... what’s the story here? There is an “R” in CDR, right? Can’t my (modern) SIEM/SOAR do that? What about this becoming a part of modern SIEM/SOAR in the future? What gets better when you deploy a CIRA (a) and your CIRA in particular (b)? Ephemerality and security, what are the fun overlaps? Does “E” help “S” or hurts it? What about compliance?

Guest: Meador Inge , Security Engineer, Google Cloud Topics: Can you walk us through Google's typical threat modeling process? What are the key steps involved? Threat modeling can be applied to various areas. Where does Google utilize it the most? How do we apply this to huge and complex systems? How does Google keep its threat models updated? What triggers a reassessment? How does Google operationalize threat modeling information to prioritize security work and resource allocation? How does it influence your security posture? What are the biggest challenges Google faces in scaling and improving its threat modeling practices? Any stories where we got this wrong? How can LLMs like Gemini improve Google's threat modeling activities? Can you share examples of basic and more sophisticated techniques?

Guest: Archana Ramamoorthy , Senior Director of Product Management, Google Cloud Topics: You are responsible for building systems that need to comply with laws that are often mutually contradictory. It seems technically impossible to do, how do you do this? Google is not alone in being a global company with local customers and local requirements. How are we building systems that provide local compliance with global consistency in their use for customers who are similar in scale to us? Originally, Google had global systems synchronized around the entire planet–planet scale supercompute–with atomic clocks. How did we get to regionalized approach from there? Engineering takes a long time. How do we bring enough agility to product definition and engineering design to give our users robust foundations in our systems that also let us keep up with changing and diverging regulatory goals? What are some of the biggest challenges you face working in the trusted cloud space? Is there something you would like to share about being a woman leader in technology? How did you overcome the related challenges? Resources: Video “Compliance Without Compromise” by Jeanette Manfra (2020, still very relevant!) “Good to Great” book “Appreciative Leadership” book…

Guest: Yigael Berger , Head of AI, Sweet Security Topic: Where do you see a gap between the “promise” of LLMs for security and how they are actually used in the field to solve customer pains? I know you use LLMs for anomaly detection. Explain how that “trick” works? What is it good for? How effective do you think it will be? Can you compare this to other anomaly detection methods? Also, won’t this be costly - how do you manage to keep inference costs under control at scale? SOC teams often grapple with the tradeoff between “seeing everything” so that they never miss any attack, and handling too much noise. What are you seeing emerge in cloud D&R to address this challenge? We hear from folks who developed an automated approach to handle a reviews queue previously handled by people. Inevitably even if precision and recall can be shown to be superior, executive or customer backlash comes hard with a false negative (or a flood of false positives). Have you seen this phenomenon, and if so, what have you learned about handling it? What are other barriers that need to be overcome so that LLMs can push the envelope further for improving security? So from your perspective, LLMs are going to tip the scale in whose favor - cybercriminals or defenders?

Guest: Kimberly Goody , Head of Intel Analysis and Production, Google Cloud Topics: Google's Threat Intelligence Group (GTIG) has a unique position, accessing both underground forum data and incident response information. How does this dual perspective enhance your ability to identify and attribute cybercriminal campaigns? Attributing cyberattacks with high confidence is important. Can you walk us through the process GTIG uses to connect an incident to specific threat actors, given the complexities of the threat landscape and the challenges of linking tools and actors? There is a difficulty of correlating publicly known tool names with the aliases used by threat actors in underground forums. How does GTIG overcome this challenge to track the evolution and usage of malware and other tools? Can you give a specific example of how this "decoding" process works? How does GTIG collaborate with other teams within Google, such as incident response or product security, to share threat intelligence and improve Google's overall security posture? How does this work make Google more secure? What does Google (and specifically GTIG) do differently than other organizations focused on collecting and analyzing threat-intelligence?

Guests: Beth Cartier , former CISO, vCISO, founder of Initiative Security Guest host of the CISO mini-series: Marina Kaganovich , Executive Trust Lead, Office of the CISO @ Google Cloud Topics: How is that vCISO’ing going? What is special about vCISO and cloud? Is it easier or harder? AI, cyber, resilience - all are hot topics these days. In the context of cloud security, how are you seeing organizations realistically address these trends? Are they being managed effectively (finally?) or is security always playing catch up? Recent events reminded us that cybersecurity may sometimes interfere with resilience. How have you looked to build resilience into your security program? The topic is perhaps 30+ years old, but security needs to have a seat at the table, and often still doesn’t - why do you think this is the case? What approaches or tips have you found to work well in elevating security within organizations? Any tips for how cyber professionals can stay up to date to keep up with the current threat landscape vs the threats that are around the corner?

Guest host: Marina Kaganovich , Executive Trust Lead, Office of the CISO @ Google Cloud Guest: John Rogers , CISO @ MSCI Topics: Can you briefly walk us through your CISO career path? What are some of the key (cloud or otherwise) trends that CISOs should be keeping an eye on? What is the time frame for them? What are the biggest cloud security challenges CISOs are facing today, and how are those evolving? Given the rapid change of pace in emerging tech, such as what we’ve seen in the last year or so with gen AI, how do you balance the need to address short-term or imminent issues vs those that are long-term or emergent risks? What advice do you have for how CISOs can communicate the importance of anticipating threats to their boards and executives? So, how to be a forward looking and strategic yet not veer into dreaming, paranoia and imaginary risks? How to be futuristic yet realistic?

Guest: Bob Blakley , Co-founder and Chief Product Officer of Mimic Topics: Tell us about the ransomware problem - isn't this a bit of old news? Circa 2015, right? What makes ransomware a unique security problem? What's different about ransomware versus other kinds of malware? What do you make of the “RansomOps” take (aka “ransomware is not malware”)? Are there new ways to solve it? Is this really a problem that a startup is positioned to solve? Aren’t large infrastructure owners better positioned for this? In fact, why haven't existing solutions solved this? Is this really a symptom of a bigger problem? What is that problem?

Guest: Allan Liska , CSIRT at Recorded Future, now part of Mastercard Topics: Ransomware has become a pervasive threat. Could you provide us with a brief overview of the current ransomware landscape? It's often said that ransomware is driven by pure profit. Can you remind us of the business model of ransomware gangs, including how they operate, their organizational structures, and their financial motivations? Ransomware gangs are becoming increasingly aggressive in their extortion tactics. Can you shed some light on these new tactics, such as data leaks, DDoS attacks, and threats to contact victims' customers or partners? What specific challenges and considerations arise when dealing with ransomware in cloud environments, and how can organizations adapt their security strategies to mitigate these risks? What are the key factors to consider when deciding whether or not to pay the ransom?

Guest: Andrew Kopcienski , Principal Intelligence Analyst, Google Threat Intelligence Group Questions: You have this new Cybersecurity Forecast 2025 report , what’s up with that? We are getting a bit annoyed about the fear-mongering on “oh, but attackers will use AI.” You are a threat analyst, realistically, how afraid are you of this? The report discusses the threat of compromised identities in hybrid environments (aka “no matter what you do, and where, you are hacked via AD”). What steps can organizations take to mitigate the risk of a single compromised identity leading to a significant security breach? Is this expected to continue? Is zero-day actually growing? The report seems to imply that, but aren’t “oh-days” getting more expensive every day? Many organizations still lag with detection, in your expertise, what approaches to detection actually work today? It is OK to say ”hire Managed Defense ”, BTW :-) We read the risk posed by the "Big Four" sections and they (to us) read like “hackers hack” and “APTs APT.” What is genuinely new and interesting here?
