Episode 14: Creating Cybersecurity Media

One of the most important parts of the cybersecurity community’s work to protect data is to educate their clients and inform the public of known risks and specific threats to their personal and professional data. In a space already filled with disinformation and out-of-date ideas, it is vital that leaders, practitioners, and experts know how to communicate essential security information in clear, credible, and actionable terms.

Kyle McNulty joins Stel on this episode of onSecurity to talk about methods and modes of cybersecurity content creation and developments in the media landscape

Episode 13: Capture the Flag!

Cybersecurity professionals are constantly honing their skills and adding to their knowledge set. Still, to stay ahead of attackers, defenders must make sure to continue to think outside of the box, see the obscure, and practice their ability to solve problems. Capture the Flag competitions are a popular exercise at cybersecurity events, offering an array of riddle-like security challenges. Blue Team Con 2022 hosted such a competition for attendees and it was won by onShore Security analyst Chris Spankroy.

Chris joins Stel to talk about his experience with Blue Team Con’s Capture the Flag competition, how it was designed to test “blue team” skills, and how he analyzed his way to victory.

Episode 12: Building the Cybersecurity Community of Tomorrow

Cybersecurity practitioners, as defenders of information, benefit from the fact that they are, in some ways, one large team, and the sharing of information and best practices as an industry and a community elevates everyone’s ability to protect their data. The passing of experience and expertise among peers is important, but staying ahead of emerging cyber threats requires recruiting and training the next generation.

John Johnson joins onSecurity to discuss CornCon, the cybersecurity convention he founded in Davenport, Iowa. CornCon’s growth is in large part due to it filling a growing demand for regional cybersecurity events, as well as the event’s focus on young professionals, students, and children, with programming designed to support and welcome the cybersecurity industry leaders of tomorrow.

Episode 11: Leading with Cybersecurity

onShore Security’s podcast, onSecurity, explores a variety of topics in the cybersecurity field. Cybersecurity practice is typically the territory of experts in the field, but for large organizations, cybersecurity is a board-level concern and should factor into decisions in every department, from security and risk to marketing and customer experience.

Cybersecurity can seem a big obstacle and is a large source of risk for the unaware or ill-prepared, but for those leading with cybersecurity, it offers a new way to think about every part of your organization, at every level.

For our eleventh episode, Robert Barr joins onSecurity to discuss the importance of cybersecurity awareness at the board level and the work that the Private Directors Association is doing with their new Cybersecurity Governance Committee to ensure that leaders have the understanding and knowledge needed to make big decisions.

Episode 10: Cyberpeace

onShore Security’s podcast, onSecurity, explores a variety of topics in the cybersecurity field. The image of the lone wolf hacker or of small-time crooks lit only by laptop glow in their basements is long out-of-date. Cyber attacks, ones that impact civil society, now commonly derive from governmental organizations or groups working for government and military agencies, and their targets are not restricted to the public sector. Total warfare is becoming the prevailing tactic on the growing cyber front of global geopolitical conflict and everyone is caught in the crossfire.

For our tenth episode, John Hering joins onSecurity to discuss the importance of digital diplomacy and his efforts with Microsoft and the Cybersecurity Tech Accord to reduce the risk and impact of cyber warfare and state-sponsored cyber attacks on Enterprises and individuals.
