onSecurity Podcast – Episode 19: Inclusion and Community Engagement

August 16, 2023 By Josh Eklow

Episode 19: Inclusion and Community Engagement


In cybersecurity, teamwork is everything. Every part of the practice is about being part of a team, from playing your part in your organization to being part of the larger community and ecosystem. Cybersecurity conventions, such as the upcoming Blue Team Con, are a focal point for team building at every level, with knowledge sharing and training, networking, and volunteering. Many cybersecurity events are run by volunteers, seeking to learn more about cybersecurity and organizing, meet active and involved members of the community, and take part in building the culture. 

This episode, onSecurity is joined by Phoenix Fier, security analyst for Funko and volunteer coordinator for the upcoming Blue Team Con. Phoenix discusses the importance of inclusion in cybersecurity events, the opportunities that volunteering at an event presents, and why getting involved is a critical step in your career.

Episode 18: Securing IoT and Operational Technology


In an interconnected world, the rapid proliferation of IoT (Internet of Things) devices and the integration of Operational Technology (OT) into critical infrastructure have unlocked tremendous opportunities. However, these technological advancements have also exposed us to unprecedented security risks. To counter these risks, businesses can quickly and efficiently turn to the practice of maintaining a comprehensive asset inventory. By identifying and cataloging all IoT and OT devices, organizations can better understand their attack surface and implement targeted security measures to safeguard their networks.

Huxley Barbee, CISSP and CISM of RunZero, joins onShore Security CEO Stel Valavanis on this episode of onSecurity as we delve into securing IoT and OT systems, exploring the significance of asset inventory in fortifying these vital networks against potential cyber threats, and identifying common pitfalls.

onSecurity – Episode 17: AI and Chatbots in Cyberattacks

Episode 17: AI and Chatbots in Cyberattacks


The emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) has introduced a new set of challenges to the field of cybersecurity. While AI offers immense potential for enhancing security measures, it also presents unprecedented risks and complexities. One of the primary concerns is the use of AI by malicious actors to develop sophisticated attack techniques, such as AI-powered malware and intelligent chatbots that can mimic human behavior. These AI-driven attacks have the potential to bypass traditional security defenses, exploit vulnerabilities at an unprecedented scale and speed, and even autonomously adapt and evolve to evade detection.

In this episode of onSecurity, we delve into the emerging threats posed by artificial intelligence (AI) and chatbots in cybersecurity, exploring how these technologies are being leveraged and the necessary adaptations cybersecurity professionals must make to safeguard our digital landscape. James Moore, Director of Online Learning at DePaul University, joins us to discuss the alarming ways in which AI and chatbots are being weaponized by adversaries, the increased sophistication of these attacks, their potential impact on industries, and the challenges faced by cybersecurity professionals in countering them.

Episode 16: Responding to Ransomware

Responding to cybersecurity incidents is no longer merely the responsibility of the IT team at a business. There are legal and financial actions that must be taken and the ability of a business to respond smartly and with speed can determine the fate of the organization after an attack.

Todd Rowe of Constangy Law joins Stel to talk about his experience practicing law in the cybersecurity space, how his work has evolved, and lessons learned on how to respond to ransomware and other cybersecurity incidents.

onSecurity – Better Security Through Better Metrics

March 28, 2023 By Josh Eklow

Episode 15: Better Security Through Better Metrics


Planning and enacting a proper cybersecurity strategy requires data, usually in the form of metric data. These tracked statistics, qualitative and quantitative, are analyzed and organized into stories that can help a security operation see vulnerability and places to focus their attention. Metrics, however, can just as easily distract leadership and waste effort and expense. Knowing which metrics to consult and when is as valuable as tracking the data in the first place. 

Edward Marchewka, founder of 3LC Solutions, joins onSecurity to talk with Stel about what metrics are worth basing decisions on, times metrics don’t tell the whole story, and essential things to remember when considering qualitative and quantitative data.
