Radio interview on KRLD-AM
I’ll be on the air live, discussing cyber security with Chris Sommer of KRLD-AM in Dallas, TX today at 1 PM ET.
“If the end user logs on from Seattle, where their mobile phone and laptop is, a connection from New York would be unusual,” McGladrey explained. “It is also possible to note the typing style and speed of a user and use that biometric signature to determine if the user is legitimate. These data [points] make it more difficult for a threat actor to operate silently in the environment.”
Kayne McGladrey, the Field CISO at Hyperproof, is a renowned cybersecurity expert with an extensive background in enhancing security landscapes across various industries. His career is marked by significant contributions in developing robust security frameworks, managing complex risk scenarios, and driving comprehensive compliance initiatives. With a deep commitment to transforming the cybersecurity field, Kayne’s insights and strategies continue to influence how organizations approach security and regulatory compliance, making him a sought-after voice in the industry.
“The CIO won’t see the business impact if there’s not a culture of risk mitigation,” says Kayne McGladrey, director of security and IT for Pensar Development and a member of the professional association IEEE (The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers).
“A culture where security is seen as someone else’s problem will derail any conversation around security, so the biggest thing for CISOs is to make the conversation with CIOs around risk – not around technologies or shiny objects but around risks to the business.”
Telehealth, often referred to as virtual doctor appointments, has been utilized in remote regions that do not have local medical resources for several decades. But when COVID-19 began impacting many countries across the globe, telehealth became the go-to method for checking in with your doctor about possible COVID-19 symptoms or other healthcare check-ups.
The proverbial endpoint is everywhere. Consumers have more IoT and mobile devices than ever before. Industrial IoT is becoming ubiquitous and IoT malware is as common as cell phones. While conveniences are making their way into every facet of life, so are malicious software, social engineering attack and all manner of bad actors.
With between 1.8 and 5.5 million cybersecurity jobs that are likely to go unfilled by 2021, the cybersecurity industry needs to encourage people who have not previously considered these jobs to include cybersecurity in their job options. The world does not need another whitepaper about the lack of diversity of race, gender, and orientation in cybersecurity.
