In today's #reddshort, we sit down with Lane Roush (Senior Vice President, Global Sales Engineering) and Steve Craig (Chief Sales Officer) from Arctic Wolf to discuss the core difference between Arctic Wolf's service and other MDR vendors.    In this short video, Steve discusses the fundamental distinction between Arctic Wolf's service and traditional MDR vendors. While many organisations can purchase their tool stack to operationalise internally, some vendors offer a combination of tools and services. Arctic Wolf's approach is different – they provide a service and a strategic partnership to deliver outcomes and solutions, setting them apart from their competitors.    You can listen to the full episode here https://lnkd.in/gDf39f33 #cybersecurity #MDR #ArcticWolf #ITsecurity #strategicpartnership #outsourcedsecurity #DIYSOC #toolstack #vendorcomparison #cyberthreats

🚀 Unlocking Business Success: Why retain a vCIO! 🚀 For companies without dedicated IT leadership, a virtual Chief Information Officer (vCIO) can be a game-changer. Here are two clear benefits of retaining a vCIO: 1) Strategic Technology Planning: A vCIO brings expertise in aligning technology with your business goals. By developing a tailored IT roadmap, they ensure your technology investments support growth and efficiency, ultimately driving your business forward. 2) Enhanced Security and Compliance: With cyber threats on the rise, maintaining robust security measures is non-negotiable. A vCIO can assess your current security posture, implement best practices, and ensure compliance with industry regulations, safeguarding your business from potential risks. Don't let the lack of IT leadership hold your company back. Embrace the benefits of a vCIO to propel your business to new heights! 💡💻 #vCIO #ITLeadership #SmallBizSuccess #Cybersecurity"

The Evolution of Purple Teaming with Jared Atkinson, Chief Strategist at SpecterOps – PSW #812 Jared would like to discuss the evolution of purple teaming. Put bluntly, he believes traditional purple team approaches don’t test enough variations of attack techniques, delivering a false sense of detection coverage. He would like to talk about: The shortcomings of red team assessments and why most purple team assessments are too limited. How the testing landscape and requirements have changed (especially as organizations now look to validate vendor tools defense claims). How purple team assessments are evolving with the use of new frameworks like Atomic Testing. And the importance of building and selecting good test cases that cover the many ways attack techniques can be modified.

Culture isn’t just a part of the “game;” it is the game. Boards that actively shape and embody culture set the standard for board leadership–and “win” the game. Principle 8 from NACD’s 2024 edition of “The Future of the American Board” is focused on Corporate & Board Culture.  How does this apply to cybersecurity? A culture prioritizing cyber resilience is a testament to a board's foresight and commitment to preserving long-term shareholder value. Cultivating a culture that integrates cybersecurity into corporate norms at all levels will better foster innovation while safeguarding critical assets, business reputation, and stakeholder trust. #corporategovernance #cybersecurity #directorship

The Power Move We Made That Skyrocketed Our Success 🚀 🔒 Early on, we took on every client, thinking more meant better. We learned the hard way—quality matters far more than quantity. Toxic relationships drained our energy, while strong partnerships propelled us forward. ✨ Now, we focus on clients who align with our values. One such client was drowning in security breaches; we overhauled their defenses, and now they’re thriving with zero incidents. 🚀 It’s not just about protecting networks; it’s about choosing relationships that drive mutual success.

During this season of appreciation, I want to thank the cybersecurity industry as a whole for your continuous collaboration. We seem to realize that we're part of something that's bigger than all of us combined. We are unified by a strong sense of purpose and right vs. wrong. I love the way we can openly communicate and share ideas, unmatched by any other industry due to "competition" concerns. It's clear that the more we help each other, the better we can protect our companies and countries from the "bad guys". I also want to thank the people who attend our Let's Talk Software Security meetup to participate in our open discussions for the benefit of us all, as well as my wonderful co-leads of the group. I am very grateful for my employer, Fivetran - my team, my leadership, and the people who surround me to help drive the company to success, as well as our fantastic security champions who have gone above and beyond to contribute to our security maturity. I am also thankful for the many clients and design partners I worked with over this past year, collaborating on security champion programs, brainstorming ideas, and helping me improve our services, as well as The Security Champion Program Success Guide. Your input has been invaluable and I hope I've been able to provide you at least the same amount of value in return. Lastly, I am extremely thankful for my amazing friends and colleagues in the industry. Those who challenge me, listen, ask great questions, and share opinions so we can all improve. You know who you are. Keep fighting the good fight! #softwaresecurity #applicationsecurity #cybersecurity #securityawareness #securityculture #securitychampions

A big thank you 👏 to the 15+ security leaders who joined our Operational technology (OT) Security Roundtable and engaged in a lively debate. The roundtable highlighted that matters of navigating the unique challenges of OT versus IT, mobilising OT Security initiatives, and maintaining the momentum of those initiatives to deliver business value are clearly top-of-mind for business and security leaders. If you missed the event and would like to catch up on OT Security, please connect with our experts Klaus J. or Guy Florian SEKA. #otsecurity #cybersecurity #operationaltechnology
