Secretless, Identity-based Infrastructure Access

Passwords are everywhere. Sometimes they are obvious — hardcoded in the code or laying flat in the file, but other times they take the form of API keys, tokens, cookies, or even second factors. Devs pass them in environment variables, vaults mount them on disk, teams share them over links, and copy them to CI/CD systems and code linters. Eventually, someone leaks, intercepts, or steals them. Because they pose a security risk, there is no other way to say it: passwords in our infrastructure have to go.

Cyber Attack Crisis Simulation & Incident Response | Spotlight on Technology

In this episode of Spotlight on Technology we’re joined by Marie Hargraves, Cyber Workforce Advisor at Immersive Labs, to discuss crisis simulation and incident response testing. What would you do if your organisation was the subject of a cyber attack? Having an incident response procedure is critical, but even if you have one, how can you be sure it will work? How can the process be refined? Marie talks to us about the challenges facing businesses when it comes to incident response, and how these challenges can be overcome to ensure there is a robust plan in place if the worst should happen.

SANS 2022 Report Moving to a State of Zero Trust

In this webcast, SANS certified instructor Matt Bromiley will explore the concept of zero trust and what it means to security teams and your overall security posture. As a concept, zero trust is relatively straightforward: Trust no one until verified, inside or outside the network. However, this is often easier said than done, especially for systems built on legacy authentication models. Matt will also examine what a zero trust implementation looks like, how this can stop adversaries dead in their tracks, and what your organization can do to begin moving toward a state of zero trust.
